Netgear C7100V (AC1900) battery backkup
I recently bought a battery pack to back up my device during power outages. I had not bought one when I purchased the original device. The C7100V RECHARGEABLE BATTERY PACK WARNINGS AND SAFETY information included with the battery pack makes a reference to charging ("Charge the battery pack in a room-temperature environment...") but does not specify a charger. Does this pack charge itself when installed in the Router or do I need to purchase a separate charger? Should the battery just be installed and left in the device as the short INSTALL THE BATTERY directions imply? Is there any way to ask this question to a Netgear support tech other than by snail mail? It should be a simple, quick question, but has already taken up way too much time.
You should just be able to install the battery. The C7100v will charge the battery
