your router.

Position the antennas for the best WiFi performance.
NETGEAR recommends that the center antenna be vertical
and that you aim the others outward at 45‑degree angles as
shown.
Note: The antennas are not detachable. Attempting to detach
the antennas will damage the router.
2. Prepare your modem.
a. Unplug your modem's power.
b. If the modem uses a battery
backup, remove its batteries.
c. If your modem was already
connected to another router,
disconnect the cable between
your modem and that router.
Make sure that your modem is turned off and is cabled only to
the wall jack for your Internet service.
