Installing Your Router Using the Smart Wizard
9
A login window similar to the one shown below will display.
2.
When prompted, enter the default User Name and Password (
admin
for the router User Name
and
password
for the router Password), both in lowercase letters. If you changed the User
Name and Password from the defaults, then enter your new User Name and Password.
3.
The
Firmware Upgrade Assistant
screen will display.
4.
Click
Yes
to check for new firmware (recommended)
.
The router will automatically check the
NETGEAR database for a new firmware image file. If no new firmware version is available,
the message “No New Firmware Version Available” will display. (If you selected “No,” you
can check for new firmware later; see
“To manually check for new router firmware:” on
page 10
.)
5.
If new firmware is available, you will be directed to the new firmware version on the
NETGEAR website. Click
Right-click and Save to Download
and save the file to a location
on your hard disk.
Usually the firmware image is an “.img” file and does not need to be decompressed before you
can use it to upgrade your router. If, however, the file is a “.zip” file, then the image is
compressed and must be “unzipped” before you can use the file. On Windows machines, the
WinZip utility can be used to unzip the file.
Figure 6
The router User Name and Password are unique to the router and are not the
same as any other User Name or Password you may use to log in to your
Internet connection.
