Can you setup a NETGEAR router without a modem?

No, you cannot set up a NETGEAR router without a modem. The router requires a modem to access the internet connection from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The modem is responsible for translating the cable or DSL signals into internet connectivity, while the router handles the traffic distribution to your devices. Both the modem and router are essential components for establishing a working network.

1. Ensure that your router is connected to a power source and turned on.
. Connect a computer or mobile device to the router either using an Ethernet cable or through a wireless connection.
3. Access the router's settings by opening a web browser and typing either "www.routerlogin.net" or the router's IP address (usually 192.168.1.1) into the address bar.
4. Enter your router's username and password. The default credentials are often "admin" for both the username and password, but consult your router's documentation to confirm.
5. Once logged in, navigate to the Wireless settings or Wireless setup page.
6. Look for the option to enable the "Wireless Repeater" or "Wireless Range Extender" mode. This mode may also be referred to as "WDS" or "Wireless Distribution System".
7. Select this option and enter the details for the network you want to extend. This includes the network name (SSID), security type, and password. You may also need to select the primary router's SSID from a list of available networks.
8. Save the settings and wait for the router to restart. This process may take a few minutes.
9. Once the router has restarted, disconnect your computer or mobile device from the router and reconnect to the network you just extended.
10. Test the connection to ensure that your NETGEAR router is successfully extending the range of your existing network.
Note that the steps and options may vary slightly depending on the specific model and firmware version of your NETGEAR router. It's recommended to consult your router's user manual or visit the NETGEAR support website for specific instructions tailored to your device.

Why is my NETGEAR router not connecting to the Internet?

There could be several reasons why your NETGEAR router is not connecting to the Internet. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Check the physical connections: Ensure that your router is connected properly to the modem and that all cables are securely plugged in.
2. Restart the router and modem: Power off both the router and modem, wait for about 30 seconds, and then power them back on. Wait for the devices to fully reboot and establish a connection.
3. Check the Internet service: Verify that your Internet service is active and working. You can contact your Internet service provider (ISP) to ensure there are no service outages or issues.
4. Verify router settings: Ensure that the router's settings are correctly configured. Double-check the WAN settings, such as DHCP, PPPoE, or static IP settings, depending on your ISP's requirements.
5. Update router firmware: It's important to keep your router's firmware up to date. Visit the NETGEAR support website to see if there are any available firmware updates for your specific router model.
6. Reset the router: If all else fails, you can try resetting the router to factory defaults. Keep in mind that this will erase all custom settings, and you'll need to reconfigure the router from scratch.
7. Disable security software: Temporary disable any antivirus or firewall software on your computer to see if they are blocking the router's connection to the Internet.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, it's recommended to contact NETGEAR support or your ISP for further assistance.
