Protect Access to Your Router

For security reasons, the router has its own user name and password. Also, after a period of
inactivity, the login automatically disconnects. The user name and password are not the
same as a user name or password you might use to log in to your Internet connection.
NETGEAR recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. The
ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a
mixture of both uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Your password can
be up to 30 characters.

Change the Built-In Password

To change the built-in password:
1.
To log in to the router, type http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field of your
Internet browser. Enter admin for the user name and your password (or the default,
password
.
)
Note:
If you changed the password and do not remember what it is, you
can reset the router to its factory default settings. See
Default Configuration and Password
2.
From the main menu, under Maintenance, select Set Password.
3.
To change the password, first enter the old password, and then enter the new password
twice.
4.
Click Apply to save your changes.
Note:
After changing the password, you have to log in again to continue
the configuration. If you have backed up the router settings
previously, you should do a new backup so that the saved settings
file includes the new password.
