How do I stay logged in?
Every time I open the browser on my desktop I have to log in to the router. Is there a setting to keep it logged in?
IrvSp.... I cleared the cache and restarted the computer. That worked!! Thank you so much!
And thank you to everyone else for hanging in there with me and trying to help! I really appreciate it!
For some that were wondering: I wasn't directed to go to the Netgear Account sign in page. I found that to be the only page I could get to. And then I could go anywhere from there after signing in again.
Thanks again everyone!

I don't know the answer, but I wanted to say that I have had the same problem ever since joining this forum. Checking the 'keep me logged in' box does not work. I have to log in every time.
Two different issues...
DKernwanted to know about how to keep his browser logged into the router, and as far as I know, can't be done. Can have a PASSWORD MANAGER auto-fill the prompts, but other than that, not that I know of? Possible some password manager will do auto-logon I guess, but not the ones I know of.
SScandy, you issue it the Forum s/w Netgear is running. A few months ago this DID work. A change was made and that no longer works. I've complained to NG Moderators and NOTHING has changed... still doesn't work.
Thank you for your responses. That’s really stupid that we have to go their page and log in every time! Yes, it’s autofilled but still have to go there. 😡

That sounds like a completely different issue.
Logging into this forum is not the same as trying to get at other websites, which seems to be the original issue.

What is this Netgear device?
What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?What is the browser?
What actually come up when you try to go somewhere on the Internet?
How is it connected to the Internet? Wifi? Wired?
I suspect a misconfiguration issue.
