Setting a different default gateway IP

So is there a way to change the 192.168.1.1 default gateway IP address on this unit?

we want to use it as a failover for our current dodgy wireless network but we cannot change the IP address on it.

  • Hi JasonW72, 

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community! 

     

    As I understand, you want to change the default gateway IP address. Here's how: 

     

    1. From a computer that is connected to your network, launch a web browser.
    2. Enter http://192.168.1.1.
    A login page displays.
    3. Enter the administrator login password.
    The password is case-sensitive.
    The dashboard displays.
    4. Select SETTINGS > Setup > Router Setup.
    The ROUTER SETUP page displays.
