D6200 WiFi DSL Modem Router
Cannot Log In to the Router
If you are unable to log in to the WiFi DSL modem router from a computer on your local
network, check the following:
If you are using an Ethernet-connected computer, check the Ethernet connection
between the computer and the WiFi DSL modem router. For more information, see
Check
Ethernet Cable Connections on page 143.
Make sure that your computer’s IP address is on the same subnet as the WiFi DSL
modem router. If you are using the recommended addressing scheme, your computer’s
address should be in the range of 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254.
If your computer’s IP address is shown as 169.254.x.x, recent versions of Windows and
Mac OS generate and assign an IP address if the computer cannot reach a DHCP server.
These autogenerated addresses are in the range of 169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in
this range, check the connection from the computer to the WiFi DSL modem router, and
reboot your computer.
If your WiFi DSL modem router’s IP address was changed and you do not know the
current IP address, clear the WiFi DSL modem router’s configuration to factory defaults.
This procedure sets the WiFi DSL modem router’s IP address to 192.168.0.1. This
procedure is explained in
Factory Settings on page 153.
Make sure that your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using
Internet Explorer, click Refresh to be sure that the Java applet is loaded.
Try quitting the browser and launching it again.
Make sure that you are using the correct login information. The factory default login name
is admin and the password is password. Make sure that Caps Lock is off when you enter
this information.
If you are attempting to set up your NETGEAR WiFi DSL modem router as an additional
router behind an existing router in your network, consider replacing the existing router
instead. NETGEAR does not support such a configuration.
If you are attempting to set up your NETGEAR WiFi DSL modem router as a replacement
for an ADSL gateway in your network, the WiFi DSL modem router cannot perform many
gateway services, for example, converting ADSL or cable data into Ethernet networking
information. NETGEAR does not support such a configuration.
Cannot Access the Internet
If you can access your router but you are unable to access the Internet, first determine
whether the WiFi DSL modem router can obtain an IP address from your Internet service
provider (ISP). Unless your ISP provides a fixed IP address, your WiFi DSL modem router
requests an IP address from the ISP. You can determine whether the request was successful
using the Router Status screen.
To check the WAN IP address:
1. Start your browser and select an external site such as http://www.netgear.com.
