What to do if NETGEAR N600 Wireless Router cannot access the internet?
- D
  Dennis LucasAug 23, 2025
  To troubleshoot internet access issues with your NETGEAR Wireless Router, start by determining if the router is getting an IP address from your internet service provider (ISP). If not, try restarting your network to force your cable or DSL modem to recognize the router. Also, verify with your ISP if they require PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) or another login type, and ensure your login details are correctly set. You might also need to assign your ISP account's computer host name as the account name in the Internet Settings. As an alternative, provide your ISP with the router's MAC address or configure your router to clone your computer's MAC address.

  If you are experiencing wireless connectivity issues with your NETGEAR Wireless Router, check the Wireless LEDs on the front of the router. If the wireless is off, you can press the WiFi On/Off button on the side of the router to turn the wireless radio back on. If you have disabled the router’s SSID broadcast, your wireless network is hidden and does not show up in your wireless client’s scanning list.

Why is the Power/Test LED off or blinking on my NETGEAR Wireless Router?

  Karen YoungSep 2, 2025
  If the Power/Test LED on your NETGEAR Wireless Router is off or blinking, ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the router and a functioning power outlet. Also, verify you're using the 12V DC, 2.5A power adapter supplied by NETGEAR. If the LED blinks slowly and continuously, the router firmware might be corrupted, possibly due to an interrupted firmware upgrade or a detected problem. If the error persists, it may indicate a hardware issue.

  If changes are not being saved on your NETGEAR Wireless Router, when entering configuration settings, be sure to click Apply before moving to another screen or tab, or your changes could be lost. Also, click Refresh or Reload in the web browser, because the changes might have occurred, but the web browser might be caching the old configuration.
