    Why do you want to register the device?

     

    I ask because registering for support and warranty cover won't work with a used device. They aren't transferable.

     

    Have you received some sort of prompt that blocks you from doing something?

     

    If you are trying to register so that you can use something like Anywhere Access and need to tie it to a MyNetgear account, start here:

    Before you do that, if you haven't already done so, check that you cannot tie the device to Netgear's cloud system. It might work anyway.
