Unable to login and reset NETGEAR47 router admin password, in return not able to reset WIFI password

Hi,

 

i've recently got comcast connection setup. Now, when I tried to reset password for wifi, I'm facing issues:

 

1. Not able to login on routerlogin.net with admin password.

2. after few attempts, it asks me to reset admin account, that again asks for security questions which I haven't set

3. I tried setting up wifi password through the steps provided on the Netgear portal.

http://www.loginrouterlogin.net/router-login/

4. Restart of computer and router/modem didn't help either.

 

Can anyone please help on this.

 

Thanks,

SK

    Please confirm what NG product you have. Your tag line says a CM500 which this is a modem only with out built in router nor Wifi. 


    Do you have a external router connected to this modem?

      Hi,

       

      I'm using "N600 WiFi Cable Modem Router", Model - C3700v2.

       

      I tried again but still I'm unable to set the password.

       

      Thanks.

        Factory reset the modem and with a wired PC and web browser walk thru the wet up wizard. 

        You can also set a different SSID name as well. You don't have to use NETGEAR47.
