I can not get by daughters compute to hook up to my netgear wireless router. My other computers had no problem in getting connected. We have tried everything and can not get it to take the router

They are pretty straight forward. Connect the ISP modem to main uplink port. Then connect pc to any other port. Done!


Try resetting it by holding the reset in till it cycles through. This will clear all custom setting and try again.


I normally don't suggest firmware upgrades, but try updating.

192.168.0.1 Defual login if you cleared custom is User: admin Password: admin

Other than that the unit is damaged / defective.

The encryption code is configured in the wireless settings.
Connect a LAN cable from the Netgear to the LAN port on your computer, open a browser and enter the Netgear configuration URL -
http://192.168.0.1
The default login = admin
The default PW = password You can now change the default admin password and configure the wireless settings.
Go to the wireless configuration and set up the SSID and WPA or WPA2 encryption.
Now apply these settings to the wireless card in your laptop/computer.

If all your gear is working fine then the issue lies with the girlfriend's laptop wi fi chip. I had the same issue and had to return the laptop for another.

Pretty simple. It should be set to auto discovery. As long as the WiFi is working ie switched on you shoyuld find your home network pretty easiily. You do need ot knwo the SSID (the name of the network adn teh pasword. Right click on the wireless icon in teh tray to the bottom right adn show the list of netwoprk sits found. One of those should be yours. Simply 'connect' to the network adn entire the Passphrasethat was preassigned when you set up the network an it should automagically connect.

I would suggest using the network setup wizard, in the control panel. Best option is to copy the data to a pen drive and transfer to your daughters laptop.

i have netgear fs 605 vs/fs608 v2 how to get connected with internet ?

You have to use the computer to insert the CD

As your computer is not wireless compatible, you can have this connected to the router itself on the wired connections and use PS3 on wireless
Do NOT connect your computer to modem and also Netgear to modem.
Either one of them won't work. Instead connect modem to Netgear and computer to Netgear with an ethernet cable.
After this type of connection is made, try to setup the router with the CD inserted into computer.

This is how things work!
