Changing Netgear Router Username and Password

If you are looking to enhance the security of your Netgear router, changing the default username and password is a crucial step.

Follow these steps to change your Netgear router username and password:

1. Open a web browser and enter the router's IP address in the address bar. The default IP for Netgear routers is usually http://192.168.1.1
2. Enter the current username and password. If you haven't changed this before, the default credentials are 'admin' for username and 'password' for the password.
3. Once logged in, navigate to the settings section where you can change the username and password.
4. Enter a new, strong username and password. Make sure these credentials are unique and not easily guessable.
5. Save the changes and log out of the router settings.

By changing your Netgear router username and password regularly, you can protect your network from unauthorized access and potential security threats.
