Before You Begin

Make sure that your DSL service is active before you install the

modem router. You need the information listed here to install your

DSL modem and connect to the Internet. Please locate it and have it

on hand before you start the installation procedure.

• DSL user name and password. These are usually included in

the welcome letter your DSL ISP sent you when you signed up for

your service. Record your DSL Internet service account user

name and password here:

• Your telephone number or DSL account number. If you do not

have voice service, you can use your DSL account number in

place of a phone number.

User name:

Password:

Missing User Name and Password

If you don’t know or cannot locate your user name and password, call

your DSL Internet Service Provider. The following table lists the

contact information for some of the primary DSL providers.

Be very specific when speaking with your DSL Internet Service

Provider. For example, you could say:

I need my DSL service user name and password. Can you help me?

Note: If your provider says they do not support NETGEAR devices,

tell them you need only your DSL user name and password, you do

not need support.

Install Your Modem Router

A microfilter filters DSL interference out of standard phone equipment

that shares the same line with DSL service. Example devices are

telephones, fax machines, answering machines, and caller ID

displays.

1. Connect the ADSL.

a. Install an ADSL microfilter between the phone line and the

phone.

b. Connect the ADSL port of the modem router to the ADSL

port of the microfilter

c. Use an ADSL microfilter for every phone line in the house if

your modem router and telephone connect to the same

phone line.

2. Add power to the modem router.

a. Connect the power adapter to the router and plug the power

adapter into an outlet.

b. Wait for the WiFi LED on the front panel to turn on. If none

of the LEDs on the front panel are on, press the Power On/

Off button on the rear panel of the modem router.

3. Connect a computer.

You can use an Ethernet cable or connect wirelessly.

• Use the yellow Ethernet cable to connect your computer to an

Ethernet port on your router.

• Or, connect wirelessly by using the preset wireless security

settings located on the label on the bottom of the router.

Preset Wireless Security

This product has a unique WiFi network name (SSID) and network

key (password). The default SSID and network key (password) are

uniquely generated for every device, like a serial number, to protect

and maximize your wireless security. This information is located on

the label on the bottom of the product.

NETGEAR recommends that you do not change the preset WiFi

network name (SSID) and network key (password). If you do change

the settings, the security SSID and password on the bottom of the

product no longer apply.

Wireless Network Settings

Record the default preset wireless settings that are printed on the

label in the space below for easy reference.

If you change the default settings, record them here for easy

reference, and then store this booklet in a safe place:

To retrieve or update your wireless password, type

http://www.routerlogin.net in a web browser and log in using the

default user name (admin) and password (password).

Select Wireless Settings to locate your wireless password.

Add Wireless Devices to the Network

Choose either the manual or Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) method to

add wireless computers and other devices to your wireless network.

WPS Method

If your wireless device supports WPS (WiFi Protected Setup)—

NETGEAR calls this method Push 'N' Connect—you might be

prompted to press the WPS button on the router instead of entering a

password. If this happens:

1. Press the WPS button on the router.

2. Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on the client device, or

follow the WPS instructions that came with your wireless device to

complete the WPS process. The device will then be connected to

your router.

3. Repeat this process to add other WPS wireless devices.

Note: WPS does not support WEP security. If you try to connect a

WEP client to your network using WPS, it will not work.

Manual Method

1. On the wireless device that you want to connect to your router

(iPhone, laptop, computer, gaming device), open the software

utility that manages its wireless connections. This utility scans

for all wireless networks in your area.

2. Look for the preset NETGEAR WiFi network name (SSID) and

select it. The SSID is located on the product label on the bottom of

the router.

Note: If you changed the name of your network during the setup

process, look for that network name.

3. Enter the preset password (or your custom password if you

changed it), and click Connect.

Repeat steps 1–3 to add other wireless devices.
