Trying to do and complete R6120 installation

R6120 win 10 PC data passes to internet via comcast modum

No Idea how it got win 10 PC to connect  to internet via comcast modum?.

Have moto G plus/ android but I live in dead zone so wanted wired wifi.  Don'T really know how to run the ?smartphone,

can't access playstore with PC to get blackhawk or is it really needed?.

when first plugged in R6120 wanted firmware update done, seemed to be successfully completed

ssid and pass does not come up.

To many meaning less buzz code words, english yes....meaningless like  russian

 

PC should be able to login and talk to R6120  ....yes

once inside    set up wifi peramiters SSID & passphrase

How to do this with ONLY functionl PC?  Is there downloadable internet accessable  to software for setting up R6120?

I get nowhere with NETGEAR Download Center!! I get into a endless loop of serial nnumber and model number with no results except to $ell me a $ervice contract

10 years with a flip phone now dead. Replacement Moto G plus talks rings and beeps but not making much headway keeps saying it wants updates and  installation incomplete

router should have hardware access software but I don't know how to set up network access name/password so i can hook up second PC to router"network" and make it connect to internet...I'll deal with in-house 2nd  PC networking later.

TIA

Dave

     was able to find the install manual I' ll need to download the booklet .

    Only using http192:168.1.1 would make any PC conection

    Making progress. 10-20 login/password attempts then some change of settings was finally able to make motGplus "see" house wifi.

    Set up ssid and password for guest hi and lo speed wifi

    I'm sure smart phone will be the bigger problem figuring out the graphics symbolology with proper pecking and sweeping actions as well as "seeing" the screen.

    Will come back if the details get in the way of further progress.

    I guess thanks for letting me vent.
