Here you can find the default passwords: https://kb.netgear.com/1148/What-are-the-default-user-interface-passwords-for-NETGEAR-devices

Druing the inital setup a username and password is also asked to create. So you need to enter what you have configured. When you do a factory reset, the entire configuration is erased. It is necessary to keep the reset putton pressed with for a example a thumbtack for 10 seconds.

Hi vanellis0,

 

Good day!

 

Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

 

Thank you for reaching out. Can you send us a copy of the pop-up box asking for the username and password? Also, what is the brand and model of your main router? Did you set up the extender at home or in the office?

 

Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance. 

 

Regards,
