NETGEAR genie Setup
NETGEAR genie runs on any device with a web browser. It is the easiest way to set up the
router because it automates many of the steps and verifies that those steps have been
successfully completed. It takes about 15
minutes to complete.
To use NETGEAR genie to set up your router:
1. Connect the router to a power source.
2. Make sure that your device is connected with an Ethernet cable to your router.
3. Launch your Internet browser.
If you are setting up the Internet connection for your router for the first time, the
browser automatically goes to http://www.routerlogin.net, and the NETGEAR genie
screen displays.
If you already used NETGEAR genie, type http://www.routerlogin.net in the
address field of your browser to display the NETGEAR genie screen. For more
information, see
Log In to Your Router After Installation on page 18.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the NETGEAR genie setup.
NETGEAR genie guides you through connecting the router to the Internet.
If the browser cannot display the web page, do the following:
Make sure that the computer is connected to one of the four Ethernet ports, or wirelessly
to the router.
Make sure that the router is running. If it is, its WiFi LED is lit.
Close and reopen the browser to make sure that the browser does not cache the
previous page.
Browse to http://routerlogin.net.
If the computer is set to a static or fixed IP address (this situation is uncommon), change
it to obtain an IP address automatically from the router.
If the router does not connect to the Internet, do the following:
1. To be sure that you have selected the correct options and typed everything correctly,
review the router’s settings.
2. Contact your ISP to verify that you have the correct configuration information.
3. Read Chapter 8, Troubleshooting. If problems persist, register your NETGEAR product and
contact NETGEAR technical support.
