Position Your Gateway

The gateway lets you access your network anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless connection can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your gateway. For example, the thickness and number of walls the wireless signal passes through can limit the range.
Additionally, other wireless access points in and around your home might affect your
gateway’ and any other device that emits a wireless signal for network access.
Position your gateway according to the following guidelines:
Place your gateway near the center of the area where your computers and other devices
Make sure that the gateway is within reach of an

Types of Logins

Separate types of logins have different purposes. It is important that you understand the difference so that you know which login to use when.
These types of logins are associated with the gateway:
Internet service login. The login that your Internet service provider gave you logs you in
to your Internet service. Your service provider gave you this login information in a letter or some other way. If you cannot find this login information, contact your service provider.
WiFi network key or password. Your gateway is preset with a unique wireless network
name (SSID) and password for wireless access. This information is on the gateway label.
Gateway login.This logs you in to the gateway interface from a web browser as admin.

Log In to the Gateway

When you connect to the network (either with WiFi or with an Ethernet cable), you can use a web browser to access the gateway to view or change its settings. The first time you access the gateway, NETGEAR genie automatically checks to see if your gateway can connect to your Internet service. The next time you access the gateway with a browser, you are prompted to log in.
To log in to the gateway:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. Type http://routerlogin.net or http://10.0.0.2.
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the gateway user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is admin. The user name and password are case-sensitive.

Usually , the quickest way to set up the router to use your Internet connection is to allow the genie to detect the Internet connection when you first access the router with a web browser. You can also customize or specify your Internet settings.
