Netgear N150 Wireless Router Password Reset

If you lose the spotlight password, the instructions do not tell you how to reset the password

Upon doing a lot of research between other cable modem/router combos, I finally decided the Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 was the best selection to fit my needs. I live in a home that is 1850 square ft and the wireless coverage reaches in all areas of the entire house with no problem as I performed multiple speed tests and the results were very consistent throughout. The setup through the router setup management interface was seamless and very user friendly. I was able to set up my 2.4Ghz, 5 GHz, and guest wireless networks in 3 minutes. I also like the fact that you can set parental controls to manage usage time and block inappropriate websites. The Netgear ReadyShare Vault is extremely handy for me so that I can share movies, pictures, and files across the network. Overall, I would highly recommend this product!

Purchased after having difficult experience with the Netgear Orbi. This Synology Wireless Tri-Band Mesh Router coupled with the Synology RT2600 AC Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router serve as the backbone for my 1.3k sqft apartment and I've experience no drops with higher throughput (compared to the Netgear Orbi). Great products, highly recommend.

This Netgear Modem is great. I did a speed test and hit 890Mbps which is insane! One thing to know is that it is non wireless. You will need a router if you have more than 1 wireless device. It was worth every penny though. I recommend getting a router anyway, it will improve a lot. Ditch your company rent boxes and get this!

I replace my Cox cable modem and wireless router with Netgear. The signal strength throughout my 2200 sqft house is great. I can even connect my outdoor TV to the internet now. I get the same speed on wireless as I do with the computer plugged into the internet. Great products.

This router is such a great replacement to the old Netgear router we had.

Great speed, over expectations with netgear router.

The Netgear cable modem provides 1000mbs to my router just like it says!

So I upgraded my router and I must say I’m very happy with this new router from Netgear.

The Netgear cable modem CM1000 version 2 has a user name of admin and a password of password which is not secure. I would recommend changing the password. Additionally, the throughput I experienced is about 1.3 gigabytes. I also have a Netgear Nighthawk cm 2000 which has 2.5 gigabytes internet speed and a secure password installed by default. I would recommend the Netgear Nighthawk CM2000 over the Netgear cable modem CM 1000 version 2.
