Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read.
"my NetGear log in" is associated with netgear.com. "the
http://www.routerlogin.net site" should be your own router.
The default user and password are "admin" and "password", but the
password could have been changed.

The model is whatever it says on the label on the device (except that
"v1" may be invisible). You generally can't get the firmware version
until you can get logged in.

The default user and password - "admin" and "password" respectively - was the answer.
Thank you very much

Glad to hear that you got it working. Note that the User Manual
provides that information (and much else).
