20 Most Recent NetGear RP614 Router Questions & Answers

NETGEAR and the University of Wisconsin ? Madison have identified an issue with how some NETGEAR routers utilize the network time protocol (NTP) public time service provided by the University. Specific NETGEAR home routers rely on public time services provided by the internet community. If a specific public access NTP server is unavailable, these routers will not be able to synchronize their time with the public NTP server. As a result, features such as logging, email alerts, and time-based URL filtering may experience a degradation in time-keeping. Overall router functionality is unaffected. Network traffic to the specified time server, however increases as the router tries to obtain the time. ?As soon as the issue was identified, NETGEAR worked closely with the University of Wisconsin - Madison to understand the issue and minimize any impact,? said Annie Stunden, CIO at the University of Wisconsin. ?NETGEAR has taken a leadership role in working with the University to ensure a reliable networking experience for its customers and to establish best practices for interfacing with our public access servers.?

To be able to browse using wifi, the internet (dsl) cable should be at the number 1 port of your router and the other end should be at the modem. No other wires should be connected on the router.

In order to lit there must be a device (computer) on the coresponding port. Try moning the ones from ports 2 & 3 at 1 & 4 in order to see what I mean.

In case of a problem or clarification, don't hesitate to post me a reply.

re-installed driver

Open port numbers UDP 88 and TCP 3074 pointing to the IP address of the XBOX. Make sure that the IP address of the XBOX is within the IP segment of the router. Ex. if your router has 192.168.1.1 IP address your XBOX should have 192.168.1.x IP address.

The Security Key is normally used for Wireless routers to protect your connection from any unauthorized use. As you have said that you do not have the Security key for your router with you, the best way to connect your ACER laptop to the Netgear router is by asking your Wireless service provider to reset the security key & freshly reentering the same on both of your HP & ACER laptops. 

a lot of times its the sequence of the reboot for each device. what happens is, the modem connects to a particular device (computer, router, etc.) and then establishes that connection as a relationship. if you try to plug the ethernet cable into a different device without rebooting the modem, it will never connect. that being said........make all of your connections modem ethernet to router input, then router output to computer ethernet input. then, reboot the modem (with no power plugged into the netgear...its next, just no power yet). once the ready or cable light goes solid and the modem is up, plug the power supply into the router and let it do its thing, then you should see the "i" with a swoosh under it light up, it will be orange for a bit until it connects to the modem, finally turning green. from the router to the computer ethernet.......click your start button on your desktop, click the "run" near the control panel button....a little window pops up down by the start button....type the letters cmd (short for command) and then hit ok button...........black screen for dos pops up with a blinking curser.......type ipconfig then hit enter. the first stages of numbers for the default gateways etc should read close to this 192.168.0.1 (this is the ip of the router). if you see these numbers, you should be able to surf the web. you must do the reboots in the sequence as stated above.. give each interval a minute to do its thing. some newer operating systems need you to physically acknowledge the "new network detected" and select home away office...... so once the reboots and the ipconfig stuff is done but you still cant surf, restart the computer, hopefully when it comes back on it will detect the new network.

Are you trying to install the router.You can do it manually without the CD.
MAke sure that your computer is able to go online through the modem.
If your computer is able to go online through the modem
Then you need to connect the computer to the router ad the modem to the router.

What is giving you thisw message? If it is on a laptop, accessing router wirelessly, then (on the laptop) go into Network Settings and verify that your computer is set up to use a Private network, as Public networks may not let you see other computers on the network. If it is set to Private, then your router may have stopped working. Try resetting the router by sticking a paper clip into the Reset hole, which resets the router to Factory Settings. Go ahead and connect to the router with a CAT-5 cable and use IE to go go to http://192.168.1.1 and complete setting (simplified) as follows:
In Wireless Section, Choose your SSID (Network Name), set security in the section below that by choosing security method and passcode. This passcode MUST be used by all users to access thev wireless signal. Let me know ( [email protected] ) if this does not help.

First Press RESET button for 10 seconds it is in back panel of router.
Then connect router to computer with ethernet cable.
Then you can access it with following link.
http://192.168.1.1
or
http://192.168.0.1
type user as "admin" and password as "admin" or blank or "password"
then you can see configuration page of router.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks for using FixYa.

Hi maybe the password has been changed, try this:
username admin
password admin
Admin
Admin

You can reset the modem by holding in this pin hole at back to reset the pass if it has changed

use the following reference manual to fix your problem

http://kbserver.netgear.com/pdf/rp614v2_reference_manual.pdf

Most of the NETGEAR devices, except ReadyNAS products and Fully Managed switches, have the following default username and password:

• Username = admin
• Password = password
• • For older devices, password = 1234

If you have changed the default password and have forgotten the password, you may need to reset the NETGEAR device to factory default settings.
Reset for most routers with a reset button on the rear panel
Write down configuration information such as IP addresses, security keys, opened ports and services, etc., that you modified. (The default username is admin and the password is either password or 1234. Try these before resetting the router.)

1. Press the reset button on the back until the test light blinks. This takes about 10 seconds. (To avoid accidental resets, the small button is recessed. Use a pen or paperclip to access it.)
2. Release the button.
3. Wait for the router to reboot.
4. Log in with the default password. If the router configuration was not cleared, try these additional steps AFTER the router has finished rebooting.
   
5. Unplug the router's power.
6. Press and hold the reset button. While the button is held down, reconnect router's power.
7. Continue to hold the reset button for 20 seconds after reconnecting the power.
8. Wait for the router to reboot.
9. Log in with the default password.

Or you will need to update the firmware to rest the router.

I would not suggest to rurn off firewall. Instead would suggest to add exception.

check and update the firmware version .
->open the router page and check the firmware version and do a firmware upgrade.click wan set up under advanced menu to upgarde firmware.
or
->go to my.netgear.com and at the left select your product and find the latest firmware and update it.
Hope this solution resolves if not reply me ll help you

Try to reset it
