WNDR3700v3 Router trouble setting up on Windows 10 x64

I need help with my WNDR3700v3 Router. I had to reset it to factory defaults and now I can't seem to get it set up properly. I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and I'm not sure if my NETGEAR Genie in my router is compatible with it. I downloaded and installed NETGEAR Genie on my PC and I was able to get the router connected with that but I can't get it to set up my Network. I no longer have the setup CD which would make it a breeze to set up I know from past experience.

This Genie I downloaded doesn't look like the one I had before. It's like a trimed down version with only few settings.

It allows me to change my logon info but only for my Wireless. It doesn't have any effect my Eithernet. I only installed the Genie. There is firmware available on the same webpage. Should I install that? Is there any alternative to using the install CD?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Your router does not care about the operating system. It does not use drivers or anything like that.

 

But it is essential to ensure that the network drivers for your PC are up to date and installed.

 

You do not need to download any software to set up the WNDR3700v3. Use your browser as the interface.

 

See what happens when you try these links:

 

http://www.routerlogin.com/

 

and

 

http://www.routerlogin.net

 

They are local links to the router's interface.

 

The manual for this thing is here:

 

WNDR3700v3 | Product | Support | NETGEAR

 

https://www.netgear.com/support/product/WNDR3700v3.aspx 14/01/2017

 

Start at page 11 for the manual set up.

 

Good luck. Come back if it doesn't work.
