Password reset or retrevial

I moved into a new, larger home and my wifi through out the house sucks. I found this old router when unpacking but cannot remember the password.

I have searched on youtube but can't find the ACTUAL website to goto to reset without being sent to some nighthawk thing. I know my router is old but can it be reset and how?

The model is N300 wnr2000 v3...wont find in the above

Model: DGN2200|Wireless-N 300 Modem Router

   For _what_?  Did you try anything simple, like, say, a simple Web
search for terms like, say, "netgear lost password"?

 

   Here's another radical concept:

 

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM

 

   Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation.  Get the Setup Manual (at least).  Read.  Look for
"Restoring the Default Password and Configuration Settings".  It's not
complicated.

Thank you.

Will be the first and last time I use the "community" as a resource, since smartass responses seem to be the go-to.

   Glad to help.  You did get the desired information, right?
