AC4000 Tri-Band WiFi Router
Model R8000P
Unplug your modem, remove and replace the backup battery if it uses one, and
then plug the modem back in. Use the Ethernet cable to connect the modem to
the yellow Internet port on the router.
Note: If your Internet connection does not require a modem, connect your
main Ethernet cable to the yellow Internet port on the router.
Connect the router to a power source. The router’s Power LED lights amber and
then turns white when the router is ready.
Make sure that the router’s WiFi LED is lit. Look on the router label for the
preassigned WiFi network name (SSID) and network key (password).
Open the WiFi connection manager on your computer or other WiFi-enabled
device, find the router’s WiFi network name, and use the router’s password to
connect.
Launch a web browser. If the NETGEAR installation assistant does not display, visit
www.routerlogin.net. If a login window displays, enter admin for the user name
and password for the password.
Follow the onscreen instructions.
The Internet LED lights solid white when the router connects to the Internet.
For the best WiFi performance, position the antennas as shown.
