What router do you have?
To get a hold of support. Click on "MyNetgear" at the top.
Register an account (or login) and then the device.
From there you can start the support process. Keep in mind that its only free for the first 90 days.
There's a support site with access to manuals, firmware, install guides, etc.
Go to https://www.netgear.com/support/
Type in your model number and from there it'll take you to the above.
Its a great resource to start with.
Model RAX78. The correct lights were on but no Internet was detected by either my phone or my desktop.
Tried powering off/on both it and the Internet Modem (never had a problem with it).
My experience with this has convinced me to buy routers locally and not at Amazon; that way I can always take it back without shipping it back and potentially pay a restocking fee.
Unimpressed with Netgear support. Its going back.
Thanks for the response.
