  • My android phone only shows Netgear 44 I am not able to login with my password and my security questions only takes one and throws out the other how can I resolve this issue

  • What model number are you using? 

    netgear 44 is more than likely your ssid name.

    And if password recovery was never setup, it still asks the questions but there isn't a correct answer.

     

    If you don't know the login to the device, the security questions weren't setup, or you don't know their answer, then you'll need to factory reset the device to get back to stock login info. 

    push and hold reset while powered on for 7-15 seconds. That'll get you back to factory.

    factory login: admin

    factory password: password

    all lowercase.
