Remote Password Reset

I have a vacation home in another state.  The router is prompting people staying there to reset the admin password.  Is there a way for me to reset it remotely if I am not physically near the router?  There is currently no wifi in the home although the internet provider claims there is internet service to the home.

Is that the C3700 cable modem/router in your footer?

 

You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems. (This is easily done, given Netgear's complicated community structure.)

Many questions apply to different types of device, so you might get responses here, but a cable modem/router isn't much like a mobile hotpot, so you might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:

Cable Modems & Routers

In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
