Date shown is January 1, 2000.
Cause: The router has not yet successfully reached a network time server. Check that your
Internet access settings are correct. If you have just completed configuring the router, wait at
least 5 minutes, and check the date and time again.
Time is off by one hour.
Cause: The router does not adjust for daylight savings time. In the E-mail screen, select the
Automatically Adjust for Daylight Savings Time
check box.
Problems with Wireless Adapter Connections
If your wireless adapter is unable to connect, check its connection settings.
To check the adapter’s connection settings:
1.
open the adapter setup utility to check connections:
NETGEAR Smart Wizard utility
. If you installed a NETGEAR wireless adapter in your
computer, a Smart Wizard utility program is installed that can provide helpful information
about your wireless network. You can find this program in your Windows Program menu
or as an icon in your system tray. Other wireless card manufacturers might include a
similar program.
Windows basic setup utility
. If you have no specific wireless card setup program
installed, you can use the basic setup utility in Windows:
Open the Windows Control Panel, and double-click
Network Connections
.
In the LAN section, double-click
Wireless Network Connection
.
2.
Use the adapter’s setup program to scan for available wireless networks, looking for the
network name (SSID) of
NETGEAR
, or your custom SSID if you have changed it.
3.
If your wireless network appears and has good signal strength, configure and test with the
simplest wireless connection possible.
If your wireless network does not appear, check these conditions:
Is your router’s wireless radio enabled? See
“Viewing Advanced Wireless Settings” on
page 2-12
.
Is your router’s SSID broadcast enabled? See
“Viewing Advanced Wireless Settings” on
page 2-12
.
Is your router set to a wireless standard that is not supported by your wireless adapter? Check
the Mode setting as described in
“Viewing and Configuring Basic ISP Settings” on page 1-5
.

Troubleshooting
v1.0, June 2008
If your wireless network appears, but the signal strength is weak, check these conditions:
Is your router too far from your adapter, or too close? Place the computer that has the adapter
near the router, but at least 6 feet away, and see whether the signal strength improves.
Is your wireless signal obstructed by objects between the router and your adapter? See
“Optimizing Wireless Performance” on page 5-14
.
Restoring the Default Configuration and Password
This section explains how to restore the factory default configuration settings that reset the router’s
user name to
admin
, the password to
password
, and the IP address to
192.168.1.1
.
You can erase the current configuration and restore factory defaults in two ways:
Use the Erase function of the router. To use the Erase function, see
“Erasing the
Configuration” on page 6-9
.
Use the restore factory settings button on the rear panel of the router. Use this method for cases
when the administration password or IP address is not known.
To use the restore settings button:
1.
Locate the restore factory settings button on the rear panel of the router.
2.
Use a sharp object such as a pen or a paper clip to press and hold the restore factory settings
button for about 5 seconds, until the Power light begins to blink.
3.
Release the restore factory settings button, and wait for the router to restart, and for the Power
light to stop blinking and become solid green.
The factory default settings will be restored so that you can access the router from your Web
browser using the factory defaults.
If the wireless router fails to restart, or the Power light continues to blink or turns solid amber, the
unit might be defective. If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should
contact Technical Support at
.
Warning:
These procedures erase all current configuration settings.
