Wait for all the lights to change back to green and then proceed onto the next section.
Connect your laptop direct to the router in port 1to 4>open internet explorer>in the address bar put http://192.168.1.1/ when the login screen appears put in the username : netgear and the passphrase : password> the Netgear router page will now appear, down the left side click on Wireless settings>now name your network, something you remember and replace the passphrase with a new one at least 8 characters long and click apply, wait for it to finish updating and close the page.
disconnect cable from laptop and router, ensure inbuilt wireless switched on, go to system tray and look for connect to a network icon and click it and find to your network name, click connect put in your passphrase and when it says connected open a browser page and you should be connected. |
Thanks for the information. I have tried doing this, with only one problem... The website does not recognise the password. I have tried all lowercase, all uppercase and capitalising the P. Is there anything else I can try?
Thanks again for your help with this.
