I bought a netgear jwnr 2000 yesterday and tried to set it up at my sisters house for her, so i could take the other netgear router with me. It didnt work. The only indicating lights that were working were the power en the i thingy. the third from above. Also LAN port 1 was making connection and flickering. The wireless connection never flickered and the ligt was never turned on. I took it home with me but here i have the exact same problems. I tried hooking it up through LAN and i get local access. I trie to login on the router, no work. I think i may need a new router.

1. Reset the router to factory settings.

- Before you reset the router, unplug all the cables attached to it except the power cord.

- Make sure the router is plugged into the power outlet, then hold down the reset button at

the back of the router for 30 seconds using a paper clip or a pen. You should see the lights flicker momentarily on the front panel of the router.

2. Once the lights are stable, connect 1 computer or laptop directly to the back of the

router(LAN ports usually they are labeled by numbers and have the same color, just pick one).

If you pick number 1, check the corresponding light indicator at the front panel of the

router, make sure light 1 is also lit up if not choose another port at the back of the router.

3. access the router's setup page by typing http://www.routerlogin.net or 192.168.1.1 in the

address field of your browser and then press Enter. Type admin for the router user name and your password (or the default, password). Setup and configure the router again.

4. If you notice the connection is not stable or the lights on the router are still not

displaying correctly, you may update or reload the same firmware(program or software) on the

router. You may download the updated firmware from http://support.netgear.com , just type the

model of your router, choose the version, press enter then click on Downloads, you should see

the firmware available for your router. Make sure to use wired connection when updating the

firmware.
