WNR200v0v5 installation problem

Hey Community,

I tried to install my new N300 WLAN Router (Model: WNR2000v5) according to the user installation guide unsucessfully. Every time I try to Log in at www.routerlogin.net it shows following information:

You are not connected to your Router’s WiFi network. To access routerlogin.net, your device must be connected to your Router’s WiFi network. Check your current connection and try again.

Somebody has an idea what to do?

Thank you in advance!

    Hey antinode and michelkenword, thank you very much for your effort and your quick answers!! I reseted the router again now and set up the configurations manually. In an other Forum I read that I have to use static IP adresses because of the "ancient" motorola modem, so I used them. and it worked!!! Yeah!!!!

    Thank you for your help!

  •    Welcome to what may be the worst error message in the world.  For an
    explanation, try:

          https://community.netgear.com/t5/x/x/m-p/1365830

       Briefly, the idea is that "[www.]routerlogin.net" should point to
    your own router, but that's true only if you use your own router for DNS
    name resolution.  Irregardful, you should be able to get to the thing
    using its IP address, if you can determine (or guess) that.  Perhaps:
    "192.168.1.1".  You can often get it from your computer's IP
    configuration as the default gateway or router address (or some similar
    description).

      Thank you for the link! my Internet LED shows orange. And I tried to put off my modem and the router and I used the the cable from netgear, but still it kind of doesn't lead me to the routerlogin.net page. I can use already the router's wifi and visit other internet sites.The IP adress is:  192.168.113.254 , when I tipe "ipconfig" into CMD.

        Go back to basics. Adding a new router can confuse the poor things. Reset the router and rebuild the network from the ground up.

         

        Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:

         

        • Turn off and unplug the modem.
        • Turn off the modem router and computers.
        • Plug in the modem and turn it on. Wait 2 minutes.
        • Turn on the modem router and wait 2 minutes.
        • Turn on the computers.

        If that doesn't work, then at least you know you have done the basics and can investigate other possibilities.
