NETGEAR ROUTER LOGIN

In this Netgear router login guide, we show you how to log in to your router, and what options you should be tweaking to ensure you're getting the fastest – and most secure – wireless internet speeds possible.


Maybe you bought your Netgear router, set it up, and haven’t ever had any reason to go back into the router’s setup or configuration menus ever since. And now you need to pop back in to change something – maybe you’ve stuck with the same broadband provider for ages, and finally decided to switch to a better deal – but you’ve entirely forgotten how to log in to the Netgear device.


This article is for those who are in this or any similar predicament. Whatever your reason for wanting to log in to your Netgear router, we’ll show you how to do this in clear and easy steps.

How to Login Netgear router via mobile app ?

  1. Install the Netgear app

Locate the Nighthawk app (which has replaced the old Genie app, so you’ll need to ditch that and upgrade if you previously ran Genie) on Apple’s App Store or Google Play.


Download and install it on your phone or tablet. After it’s installed, run the application, and agree to the terms and conditions. You must also then decide whether to allow the app to access your device’s location services (which enables the app to automatically connect your phone to your network if you change the network name).


  1. Log in to or create a Netgear account

The next step involves logging in to your Netgear account – if you already have an account, press the 'Login' button, fill in your email address and password, then press 'Log In'.


Otherwise, press 'Create Account' and provide the appropriate details (name, email, password).


You will then be asked if you need to install a new router – unless you are setting up your router for the very first time, you should select 'No'.


  1. Log in to the router

Now you will be asked to log in with your admin credentials for the router. As is the case when logging in from a PC, you’ll need the username and password for your router (not your Netgear account, which is something entirely separate). Enter these details and press Sign In, and that’s it: you’ve logged in to your Netgear router.


If you’ve forgotten your password, there’s a link presented to a Netgear support article which discusses what to do next – but you can also see the help advice in steps 3 and 4 in the above instructions for logging in to your Netgear router from a PC, as you’ll be following the same procedure.
