Can’t access R7900P with preset network name and password

       Could you ever?

     

       "Can't" is not a useful problem description.  It does not say what
    you did.  It does not say what happened when you did it.  As usual,
    showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
    messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
    descriptions or interpretations.

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get the User Manual (at least).  Read.  Look for
    "Types of Logins" and "Factory Settings".  Further reading might not
    hurt, either.  Something like "Basic WiFi Network Settings" or
    "Troubleshoot", for example.

       If you can't get connected wirelessly, then an Ethernet connection
    might work better.
