Setting a different default gateway IP

[JasonW72]

So is there a way to change the 192.168.1.1 default gateway IP address on this unit?

we want to use it as a failover for our current dodgy wireless network but we cannot change the IP address on it.

Model: MR1100|NIGHTHAWK M1

Hi JasonW72, 

Welcome to NETGEAR Community! 

As I understand, you want to change the default gateway IP address. Here's how: 

1. From a computer that is connected to your network, launch a web browser.
2. Enter http://192.168.1.1.
A login page displays.
3. Enter the administrator login password.
The password is case-sensitive.
The dashboard displays.
4. Select SETTINGS > Setup > Router Setup.
The ROUTER SETUP page displays.
