Netgear is an advanced Wireless router service provider. Since the time of their inception, they have established as a secured and reliable networking product and service provider. Although it’s easy to set up their wireless network in a secure way, you can still need assistance. Scroll down the post to learn the step-by-step guide.

You can get assistance on setup and other router and network-related issues anytime by contacting either Netgear or a reputed third-party service provider like WiFiExtAssist.

Set Up A Secured Wireless Network On Netgear

Step 1: Take out the router and an associated Ethernet cable. Connect your cable’s one end to the modem and the other to a port on your router’s back. Take another cable and connect one end to your computer and the other to your router.

Step 2: Turn on the devices in this sequence: 1. The modem, 2. The router, 3. The computer.

Step 3: On your computer, head to your internet browser and type in your router’s IP address. (Note: you can know about the IP address from the manual.)

Step 4: Once the page loads, provide the default username and password as suggested by the manual and hit Enter. (You can customize these credentials later.)

Step 5: Click on “Security Settings”. Encrypted settings are more secure, so, change SSID and the password.

Step 6: While you’ll need to change these security settings in old routers, Netgear’s modern routers are integrated with WPA encryption software.

Step 7: Choose a password that’s complicated yet easy to remember. This will keep hackers at bay. Once the password has been changed, you can click on Confirm and Save.

That’s all it takes! Your Netgear wireless Network has securely been set up. Browse the internet and access your favorite websites without fearing a network invader or interruption. Need help in the setup? Contact us anytime on our Netgear tech support number toll free - 1-866-606-3055 for help.
