Cant access my netgear router config screen

I have a mr814 router that for some reason packed up and I could access the internet. I did a factory reset and now I can get on the internet but it didnt give me NG default ip address. I can't access the control panel to set it up. The other strange thing is my default gateway is different to my ip address (first 3 parts of course). gateway is 82.38.104 and ip starts with 82.38.106
Any ideas as to what I can do.

    The wireless part of my MR814 does not seem to work properly.  There is no problem accessing the internet via the wire connect.  All lights are green. I have the latest firmware version - 4.14 RC4 Dec 11 2003 - according to Netgear's website.  Security is open, encryption is disabled. Access list is off. All other settings are set to default.  I have tried reverting to factory default settings, but the problem still persist.



    I have an IMAC (intel) running MAC OSX 10.4.11 -  a Toshiba laptop running Windows XP SP2, and an HP running VISTA.  They are all within 30 feet of each other.



    The router shows that the Imac as attached devices at 192.168.0.2 and 3, each with a different MAC address and the IMAC shows that I am connected to the router both wireless and ethernet.  The IMAC is the only one wired to one of the 4 ports and the wireless adapter turned on.  The other two computers have the wireless ON but are not acknowledged by the router nor do they receive the broadcast signal.  These computers have been tested with other wireless devices from Netgear and they work properly.  


    Since the IMAC is the only one recognized by the wireless router, I turned the other PCs off and attempted to establish a good communication between the IMAC and the MR814 via wireless, but as soon as I disconnect the ethernet wire the responses are stopped and I can not access any website.  The IMAC is still finding the SSID from the router, the network status in the IMAC still shows that I am connected to the MR814.

I have found my own solution to this problem. A cheap Lynksys wireless. I have found that it is fruitless trying to talk to netgear or Apple reps, one never gets to talk to someone really knowledgeable, and it is too frustrating having to step through their scripted questionaire. In addition there are a lot of well-intentioned people that can send you in a wild chase. No worth the waste of time when a $40 or less Lynsys would solve the problem. Good luck to the ones who still have the problem and still want to pursue a solution. Thank you to those who tried to help.

SOURCE: Can Not connect to NetGear MR814 v2 Router with Acer Extensa 4420

Here are some troubleshooting steps that I suggest you try:

1. Check physical connections.

a. Connect the modem to the Internet port of the router. The Internet “i” LED on the front of the router should light up.
b. Connect the computer to one of the four LAN ports (i.e port 1, 2, 3 or 4) on the back of the router. The corresponding port light where you connected the computer should be lit up.

2. Access the router's web-based utility.

a. Please open any web browser like Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
b. Connect to the router by typing http://routerlogin.com/basicsetting.htm or http://192.168.1.1 in the address field and click Enter or Return key.
c. A window will prompt for a user name and password. By default, the user name is "admin" and the password is "password".

Note: If you were unable to access the router's web-based utility, you may reset the router to restore the settings to factory default.

To reset the router:

a. Please push the reset button at the back of the router and release after 30 seconds.
b. Unplug the power adapter for 10 seconds and then plug it back in.

3. Configure the router.

If your Internet Service Provider is using a cable connection, please follow the steps below:

a. Click on Basic Settings under Setup tab.
b. Select No for Does Your Internet Connection Require A Login?.
c. Scroll down on the center page and look for the Router MAC Address section. Set it to Use computer MAC address and click on the Apply button.

If your Internet Service Provider is using a DSL connection, please follow the steps below:

a. Click on Basic Settings.
b. Select Yes for Does Your Internet Connection Require A Login?.
c. Select Other on the Internet Service Provider drop down box.
d. Enter your ISP's username (username@ISPdomain) and password. Then, click on Apply.

4. Configure the wireless settings.

a. Click on the Wireless Settings under Setup.
b. Change the SSID to any unique name.
c. Scroll down, look for the Security Options settings and select WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy).
d. Set the Authentication type to "Automatic" and the Encryption Strength to "64bit".
e. Leave the Passphrase field blank, select Key 1 and enter a 10-digit number.

Note: The 10-digit number you typed in the key 1 will be the password or network key for the wireless connection.

f. Click Apply button to save the changes.
g. Go to Router Status under Maintenance tab and check if there is an IP address under Internet port. If it's 0.0.0.0, do a power cycle.

5. Power cycle.

a. Power off the modem, router and computers.
b. Turn on the power of the modem first and wait for it to initialize, the lights to stop blinking.
c. Power back the router and the computers. Check if it will be able to get online.

If you have wireless computers, you can connect them wireless to the router. Kindly follow the instructions below:

6. Connect wireless computer to the router.

If you are using Windows XP with Service Pack 1, please follow the steps below:

SOURCE: I am trying to connect

The router including the Wi-Fi is system agnostic, so yes of course you can connect your Vista machine, or your Mac, or your Solaris, or your Linux or anything else. Just so long as your system supports the Wi-Fi card which is installed in it.
The great thing is that both the ethernet and the Wi-Fi are simply standard any system uses these systems.

MR814 Netgear internet is slow

Have you tried unplugging your router from the power outlet for 2 minutes then plugging it back again? Also, it is advisable to turn off routers every once in a while to let it rest. If problems still persist, you should try contacting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) for additional support.

How do i hard reset my Netgear MR814 router so I can wipe the password and login I forgot the password

Unfortunately, there is no way to recover a lost or forgotten password from a router or access point; you will need to reset the device to factory defaults. However, once the device is reset to factory defaults, you can use the default username ("admin") and password (either "password" or "1234" depending on your router) to reconfigure your router settings.

NOTE: Restoring factory defaults on a device will erase any customizations you have made. You will lose any configurations saved to the device!

See the following articles for more information:

NETGEAR MR814 WIRELESS ROUTER

In your setup click the 'Erase' button, this will reset it to factory settings.
If you forgot the password or IP and can't do this, there is a reset button on the back of the unit. Hold it in for about 10 seconds until the power light blinks on. Then release the button and allow the router to reboot. This information is in your manual. If you've lost your manual, click here.

I lost my CD

You can reset your Netgear router/wireless MR814 router to the factory settings from within the router manager. The reset procedure removes all user-configured settings and returns the router to the original factory settings.


For this reason, only reset the router if you encounter problems that can't be solved with other methods.


Step 1: Check that your Netgear router/wireless MR814 router is properly connected with your system or not. If it is OK, then press reset button on Netgear router for at least 10 seconds. The 'test' light should flash during this process.


Step 2: Now open browser and enter Netgear's IP address into the address bar. Generally, '192.168.0.1' is the Netgear router IP address but you can find specific IP address in Netgear router manual.


Step 3: Now enter your default username and password to log in to router.


Step 4: Click 'Erase' button under the 'Revert to Factory Default Settings'. This process will erase all your previous changes that have been made to the router and restore the configuration settings to factory setting. Don't interrupt the process until the process is finished.


Once the router's 'test' light has stopped blinking and the configuration page you are on has refreshed, the router has been reset.
