NETGEAR genie Setup

NETGEAR genie runs on any device with a web browser. Installation and basic setup takes
about 15 minutes to complete.
To use NETGEAR genie to set up your modem router:

1. Turn the modem router on by pressing the On/Off button.
2. Make sure that your computer or wireless device is connected to the modem router with an
Ethernet cable (wired) or wirelessly with the preset security settings listed on the bottom
label.
3. Launch your Internet browser.
• The first time you set up the Internet connection for your modem router, the browser
goes to http://www.routerlogin.net and the NETGEAR genie screen displays.
• If you already used the NETGEAR genie, type http://www.routerlogin.net in the
address field for your browser to display the NETGEAR genie screen. See
NETGEAR genie after Installation
4. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete NETGEAR genie setup. NETGEAR genie
guides you through connecting the modem router to the Internet.
If the browser cannot display the web page:
• Make sure that the computer is connected to one of the four LAN Ethernet ports or
wirelessly to the modem router.
• Make sure that the router has full power, and that its wireless LED is lit.
• Close and reopen the browser to make sure that the browser does not cache the previous
page.
• Browse to http://www.routerlogin.net.
• If the computer is set to a static or fixed IP address (this is uncommon), change it to
obtain an IP address automatically from the modem router.
