Here you can find the default passwords: https://kb.netgear.com/1148/What-are-the-default-user-interface-passwords-for-NETGEAR-devices
Druing the inital setup a username and password is also asked to create. So you need to enter what you have configured. When you do a factory reset, the entire configuration is erased. It is necessary to keep the reset putton pressed with for a example a thumbtack for 10 seconds.
I had done all that that is why i am here I get the box come up to enter admin and password then i get now enter master password this is the bit i am stuck with .I have tried to press wps switch and the one on the router but this n300 overwrites my router and will not take a command .This is going to end up in room 101 and i will get me a tp link as this has a mind of its own vangellis0
Hi vanellis0,
Good day!
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Thank you for reaching out. Can you send us a copy of the pop-up box asking for the username and password? Also, what is the brand and model of your main router? Did you set up the extender at home or in the office?
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
