R7000 AC 1900 Wifi Router
Hi - I had to reset the router. What is the IP address where I need to change the password? Thank you!

There is support material, including a manual, for the R7000 somewhere at the end of this link:

If you reset the r7000 then the password was reset to the default. Check your doc. The router IP address is 192.168.1.1. All this is in the user guide that came with router.
If you enter that into a browser you should be taken to the initial screen on the router where you put in the User ID and password.

Thanks Bill. I called Netgear and they gave me routerlogin.net. But it says it's not a secure location and to not enter sensitive info like passwords. How do I change the password safely? 192.168.1.1. says the same thing. Obviously I'm very ignorant when it comes to this kind of thing. I'm so confused that the spot to change your password is not secure.
