What parameters? You should not need to change anything to add those devices.
Genie Version 2.4.62
Router Model WNDR4500v3, Firmware Version V1.0.0.56
But I was unable to find the Advanced tab on the Genie Home page and also unable to edit the router's IP address using the Router Settings Page and the Router Login dialog box.
This is the desktop genie for Windows? (Genies come in various shapes and sizes.)
I see no Advanced tab on the Genie Home page. Do you mean the browser graphical user interface (GUI)?
What do you see when you try that route in? The genie is not the best management interface.
What IP address is this? The local IP address for the router? IP address on the Internet (WAN)?
Why do you want to change it?
I received the message "NETGEAR router is not found or is not supported."
What is the modem/router, if there is one, in front of this router?
Apologies for all the questions. I'm trying to understand what you are doing and why. People often arrive seeking solutions for problems that are best approached from a different angle. A starting with the task in hand is more useful than picking over possible fixes.
