Ac1000 Router

When I try top connect the router, I'm told top enter the security code, I enter the WPA2 and it tells me that's incorrect and I 'm still not connected.

    Connect to what?
    Enter security code where?

    Which router model? AC1000 is a speed, not model number.

      The only AC1000 I can find in the system is the R6080, probably the bottom of the line for Netgear routers. I mean, 100 MBps LAN and WAN in 2017? Not something to use if the Internet is faster than 100 MBps.

       

      A good place to start looking for help is the manual.

       

      Visit the support pages:

      Feed in the model number and check the documentation for that hardware.
