Hello. Do you need the wireless password or the router login password? If you need wireless password(security key like WEP or WPA) or you would like to setup wireless security for your Netgear router, access the router setup page by typing http://192.168.0.1) in the address field of your browser and then press Enter. Enter admin for the router user name and your password (or the default, password).
This image is a sample of the login window to access the router's setup page.
After logging in. Look at the main menu on the left, click on Wireless Settings, from there you can check the Wireless Key(usually indicated as "passphrase") or you can setup wireless security from there if you haven't done so.
This image is the router's setup page and this is where you can configure the router and check some settings like Wireless security or password.
**If by chance you are unable to access the router's login or setup page by using the default username &password(admin, password) and you totally have forgotten it, you need to reset the router to factory or default settings then you have to setup the router again. **To reset the router to default settings:
1. 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(Ethernet/LAN ports usually they are labelled 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. Setup and configure the router again.
~~Hope this helps~~
