I have no idea how to log into my router. Yes I set the router up--- but w/ LOTS of help from Netgear and calls to Windstream, my ISP. It was difficult to set up but has worked flawlessly ever since. When I looked online for help w/ my issues, the suggestions were to use the code on the bottom of the router, which I have tried--- that code goes to the router but not to my private wifi network. Even so, I tried it anyway.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here is a picture of what you should do to get into the Router setup:
I'm using Firefox as my browser. Just enter 192.168.1.1 into the address bar (it will default to 192.168.1.1/start.htm or you could enter that if you wish as well) and you should see the Authentication Required box. Enter admin and password for User Name and Password.
If you DO NOT see the above, then enter 192.168.0.1 or whatever address you saw as the DEFAULT GATEWAY when you run IPCONFIG.
Once in follow my other directions to locate your wireless key.
