SOLUTION: Router defaulted to name: NETGEAR, but should have been NETGEAR50. The password on the bottom sticker wasn't working. This was after the 30/30/30 factory reset.

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
