If you are attempting to set up your router as a replacement for an ADSL gateway in
your network, the router cannot perform many gateway services. For example, the
router cannot convert DSL or cable data into Ethernet networking information.
NETGEAR does not support such a configuration.
You Cannot Access the Internet
If you can access your router but not the Internet, check to see if the router can obtain
an IP address from your Internet service provider (ISP).
Check the WAN IP Address
Unless your ISP provides a fixed IP address, your router requests an IP address from the
ISP. You can determine whether the request was successful using the ADVANCED Home
page.
To check the WAN IP address:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
network.
2. Select an external site such as netgear.com
.
3.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
4. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
5. Click the ADVANCED tab.
The ADVANCED Home page displays.
6.
Check to see that an IP address is shown for the Internet port.
If 0.0.0.0 is shown, your router did not obtain an IP address from your ISP.
If your router cannot obtain an IP address from the ISP, you might need to force your
modem to recognize your new router by restarting your network. For more information,
see Sequence
to Restart Your Network on page 125.
