Password Recovery
NETGEAR recommends that you enable password recovery if you change the password for
the router user name admin. Then you can recover the password if it is forgotten. This
recovery process is supported in Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome browsers, but not in
the Safari browser.
To set up password recovery:
1. Select ADVANCED > Administration > Set Password.
2. Select the Enable Password Recovery check box.
3. Select two security questions, and provide answers to them.
4. Click the Apply button.
Your changes are saved.
To recover your password:
1. In the address field of your browser, type www.routerlogin.net.
A login screen displays.
2. Click Cancel.
If password recovery is enabled, you are prompted to answer two security questions.
3. Enter the saved answers to the security questions.
