WINDR4500 V2

Hi.  I have an older WINDR4500V2 router, primarily used as a secondary router for my wireseless security cameras.  Is there any way to remotely login to this router?  The nighthawk app claims the router is too old and I struggle to find a way.  

Thank you.

  • is it setup in router mode or access point mode? 

    (if its a secondary router, it should be in access point mode)

    What I usually do is remote into a computer on my network and use that to access the ip address of the router. Tends to be the fastest

      I'm not 100% sure and at work at the moment but I think router mode.  I will definitely check when I get home. 

      Perfect.  Thank You!

    What do you want to do with remote login?

     

    Your decade old router certainly predates most of the easily accessed features.
