Netgear RAX20 unable to be reset
I have a Netgear RAX20 router that I am trying to configure. I did the reset to factory defaults sequence. Push reset button for 7 seconds. Let it reboot. Power cycle and try to connect to 192.168.1...

I went through and did the 30-30-30 reset which made it start behaving in a different manner which is a change.
The system that I am using to configure this has no internet access and is using IP address 192.168.1.200/24. I even went so far as to assign the default gateway and DNS both to 192.168.1.1.
Going to http://192.168.1.1 tries to go to http://routerlogin.net/genie_index.htm.
I need to get control of it so that I can give it a specific IP address and configure it as a wireless access point meeting specific security measures that our corporate infosec group has in place.
Right now, it is kind of accessible but unusable.

When it redirects you to routerlogin.net, just input 192.168.1.1 again. Also after you factory reset the router, disconnect the router from the ISP modem/ONT. Helps prevent it from loading the external site.

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
