How to connect Huawei tablet to my wi-fi
How do I connect my Huawei tablet to my wi-fi? My address is listed but will not accept my password even though my password is correct when I login on my desktop.

Bit thin on useful details there.
What Netgear device are we talking about here?

What will not accept the password? The Huawei tablet?
Do you have a complicated password with strange characters?
By "my address" I assume that you mean the router's wifi SSID.
I also assume that the desktop is connecting to the router's wifi rather than a wired connection.

My modem if C7100V. I can connect by my desktop. The modem address appears on my tablet, but will not accept my current PW. I'm not sure when or how this happen, as I don.t use the tablet every day. However, the last time I tried logging in by the tablet, I was unable to do so.

Are you saying that it used to connect? Your original message suggested that you were trying to do that for the first time.
If it has worked in the past, try this on the Huawei:
- in Wi-Fi
- Wi-Fi settings
- Saved networks
- Find the router's SSID
- Click on that
- Forget
Now see if you can connect to it afresh.
