Re: AC1900Modem/Router- I cannot finish network setup-

Factory reset the modem and setup from scratch. A complete pull of the power adapters for a period of time after the factory reset then walk thru the setup wizard and setup from scratch with a wired PC and web browser.

 

Besure to clear out all browser caches.

Try using a different browser. MS Edge, Firefox or Opera is recommended.

 

Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.

Thanks for your reply

But,....

I did the reset, &  unplugged (from power) 

and nothing changed 

I still can't pull up the "Set up new network" page

I tried the reset password instructions, but I can't pull up any page with that active prompt

I go to settings, click "available networks", "netgear 38" comes up, asks for network key, I did not create one, so, nothing happens 

Thanks again

ADDITION TO MY REPLY

I cannot get "The Set Up Wizard" to appear 

Is there any downloadable software available for this piece?

Thanks

Look at the nameplate on the back of your unit.  The nameplate lists the default SSID and the Wi-Fi password for the default SSID.  Use these to log in to the Wi-Fi.

Nothing seen at 192.168.1.1 in a web browser on a wire connected PC? 

 

Last resort, you might try a 30-30-30 reset,
