Troubleshooting
If you’re having problems with the installation, try the following:
• Turn off your modem and router and disconnect them. Reboot your
modem. Reconnect your router to your modem, and try installing with
the Nighthawk app again.
• If you’re still unable to install your router using the Nighthawk app,
manually install it using the router web interface.
Visit http://www.routerlogin.net to access the router web interface.
If you already own another NETGEAR router and you used the Nighthawk app
before, go to the dashboard and tap > NEW SETUP to install your new router.
