Change the admin Password

If you used the NETGEAR installation assistant to set up the modem, you had to change the default password
that you use to log in to the modem to a more secure password. This is the password that you use to log in
to the modem with the user name admin. If you did not use the NETGEAR installation assistant, we
recommend that you do change the default password. If you already changed the password, you change it
again.
The ideal password contains no dictionary words from any language and contains uppercase and lowercase
letters, numbers, and symbols. It can be up to 30 characters.
To change the password for the user name admin:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
