WGR614v10 setup?
I'm trying to use a WGR614v10 that has been reset (to its factory defaults). Everything I find about doing this points me to the NIGHTHAWK app. But the Nighthawk app DOESN'T support the WGR614v10. I'...
For what it's worth...
I checked some notes I had from more than 10 years ago (so long ago I'd forgotten all about it), when I had an earlier version of the WGR614v10 (it was the -v9) that I setup for my parents, and I had the same problem(s) back then. The "fix" turned out to be accessing the router via "192.168.1.1/start.htm." I did that and the rest was, as they say, history (i.e., it worked fine)

the defaults are usually
192.168.1.1
192.168.0.1
10.0.0.1
You can always use the command prompt to check its gateway if its not connected to a different router
No luck...
Let me give you the "lay of the land" (if that helps):
I have an Xfinity Arris TG1682 Wireless gateway (I'll call this my "Main" SSID)
I have four wireless routers connected to the LAN ports of the Arris gateway
- A Netgear WNDR4500v3 N900 Wireless Router (SSID = N900)
- A Linksys MR7350 Wireless Router (SSID = MR3750)
- A Netgear EX6150v2 Range Extender (in "Access Point" mode) (SSID = EX6150), and
- the Netgear WGR614v10 (It's SSID is (presently) the factory default, NETGEAR)
If I connect (wirelessly) to the Arris gateway ("Main"), it says my default gateway is 10.0.0.1 and it says the IP address of the WGR614v10 is 10.0.0.237.
If I connect (wirelessly) to the Netgear WGR614v10, it says its default gateway is 192.168.1.1
