Resetting password on router not supported by Nighthawk app

I have a AC 1600 Cable Modem Router, which is not supported by the Nighthawk app. When I try to log in to the routerlogin.net or .com sites, they will not load. I am trying ti figure out how I can get into my router admin site and change my router password and admin name

       A clear description of what does happen would be more useful than a
    vague description of what does not happen.  As usual, showing actual
    actions (commands) with their actual results (error messages, LED
    indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague descriptions or
    interpretations.

       You might find some relevant information in a widely neglected
    resource:

     

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get the User Manual (at least).  Read.  Look for
    "Access NETGEAR genie".  Note the suggested alternative of specifying an
    IP address.
