Login to what? The browser graphical user interface (GUI)?
If you are talking about access to the browser's graphical user interface (GUI), the router's controls, these are on the label for your device, along with the default wifi login details. The username is fixed at admin. The default password is password.
If you are trying to use the "password recovery" option, there is a bug in Netgear's implementation of password recovery on some devices. You can get locked into a closed loop.
If password recovery is enabled, but you have not set the answers to the questions, it keeps sending you back to the beginning of the process. If you haven't already given the thing your personal answers, they are not in its memory and it has no way of knowing if they are correct.
If the standard factory password (password) does not work, then you will have to factory reset the thing to get back to that. Then either disable password recovery (check the manual for your device) or provide some answers to those questions.

By the way, your WNR1000 dates back to 2009. Slow ethernet, limited, and slow, wifi options.

Re: Wnr1000
Just press the reset button for 30 seconds with a paper clip and it will go back to factory default. Of course you'll have to rename your wif and password and all that again.
