and feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
It will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device.
By the way the WNR612v3 is seriously old (2012). According to Netgear's manual for this device, not always the most reliable source of information, the LAN and WAN support only 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. That makes it slower than many newer internet services and most modern network hardware. This may not matter to you, but be warned that it will hobble you if you ever sign up for faster Internet. It also slows down whatever is going on in your local network. Newer devices support 1000BASE-TX.
The wifi may also not be up to much. It does not even support 5 GHz wifi.
Nothing wrong with it being old, just don't expect too much.
