Erase The Current Configuration Settings; Change The Password - NETGEAR N600 JNDR3000 User Manual

Erase the Current Configuration Settings

Under some circumstances (for example, if you move the router to a different network or if
you have forgotten the password), you might want to erase the configuration and restore the
factory default settings.
You can either use the Restore Factory Settings button on the back of the router (see
Settings on page 128), or you can click the Erase button in this screen.
To erase the configuration settings:

1. Select ADVANCED > Administration > Backup Settings.
2. Click the Erase button.
The factory default settings are restored. The user name is admin, the password is
password, and the LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1. The DHCP is enabled.

Change the Password

This feature allows you to change the default password that is used to log in to the router with
the user name admin.
This is not the same as changing the password for wireless access. The label on your router
shows your unique wireless network name (SSID) and password for wireless access (see
Label on page 14).
To set the password for the user name admin:

1. Select ADVANCED > Administration > Set Password.
The following screen displays:
2. Type the old password and type the new password twice in the fields on this screen.
3. If you want to be able to recover the password, select the Enable Password Recovery
check box.
4. Click the Apply button.
