What are the Default Passwords of NETGEAR Routers
Home based broadband routers offer a web-based interface dealing with the device and the network.
Routers protect the interface behind the login page; need the administrator to enter a username and password combo. Netgear manufacturers set the username and password for new routers after their manufacturing.
Default username and password are helpful when the user doesn't know the password for a device, if the user needs to set up a device again, or if the user wants to reset a device to the default settings.

1. Using Netgear default passwords- For Netgear routers the default username is 'admin'. While the default password is 1234 except the below mentioned old models-
a. The RT series b. MR314 c. Comcast routers manufactured by Netgear
Note: Internet service providers who issue routers to their users or subscribers might deliver the unit with their own passwords and with other settings.
2. Enter a new Netgear Router credentials- Anyone can see the router's default username and password on the internet. Luckily, the administrator can change the both username and password of the router, whenever they feel like.
After signing in to the console with the help of old password, there is an option available to type a new one and activate it for the further use in future.
A Netgear router doesn’t require their default passwords for changing into new one.
Some users might won't be able to remember their router's credentials as they don't log in as an administrator often.
3. Resetting Netgear Routers- Resetting a router restores its default settings which include the default password as well. It is very useful when a user has forgotten their password or is trying to regain the router access from the serious damage or failure.
Note: Rebooting the router and resetting it are the two different things. Just by power cycling, a router will not change the password. Make Router reset as a last resort and should be done during urgent need.
