Default credentials are useful when you do not know the password for a device, you need to set up a device again, or you need to reset a device to the factory default settings.
To help prevent unauthorized access, newer NETGEAR products require you to change the admin password when you set your device up for the first time. If you forgot your password, the password recovery feature can help you regain access. For more information, see the following articles:
