Power Outage NightHawk 6.0, Now Can't Login to Router
I saw almost the exact problem in forums from 2012 for older Netgear routers - but didn't see a good answer. It won't let me enter the correct model number but this is a new Nighthawk R8000 AC3200with 3 access points and 2.4 and 5.0 Ghz. Had a quick 2 second power outage (I have whole house surge protection), the Nighthawk kept all it's settings and I can connect wirelessly or via RJ45 ehternet - no problems. But I can't log into the web page to change settings etc. My Nighthawk is connected to a Time Warner Arris cable modem which has wireless disabled. I powered the Nighthawk off for 60 seconds and let it come back, but same situation, everything works great but I can't log into the NIghthawk web page. I do see via Netgear-Genie that it just shows everything connected through the Arris modem 192.168.0.1 The Nighthawk was previously accessed on 192.168.1.1 I also see in Network-Genie the Nighthawk seems to be on 54.200.99.0 which just takes me to a Netgear.com site. I know I am connected to one of the Nighthawk's access points, so it is strange that I can't get to the web page either via wireless or ethernet connection. Anyone know what I can do. I hate to re-install the Nighthawk but I will if on one has any other technical guidance. THANKS, RalphSolved4.6KViews0likes2Comments
