Back in 2015 it purchased above mentioned router. Did flash it with DD-RWT. For some years it has not been used.
Now it tried a 30/30/30 reset in order to factory reset the router and install Netgear software again.
I´m able to acces to first picture - but when trying to upload firmware I´m prompted for a user and password: (tried the ones I could remember) and also root (user) admin (password). But nothings working - I´m not able to acces the routersettings.
The router is diplayed as DD-WRT and when connecting it works fine on the internet. But the problem is I cannot secure the network.
Any suggestions to how to reinstall the netgear software? I´m using a mac-computer.

In my dd-wrt experience you may need to use a serial connection to restore the Netgear firmware. This would require popping the router cover open.
Here is a writeup when using a MAC. Probably have two issues right off. Need of both a Ethernet dongle and a serial to USB cable.

Talk to the people who create DD-WRT.
There aren't many people here who have deep knowledge of alternative firmware and Netgear certainly does not support it.
