Product Usage Instructions

Compatibility and Adding Devices

If you encounter a wireless network that conceals its network name (SSID), you can manually connect to it by entering the network details. This allows you to connect your device to the network even if it’s not visible in the list of available wireless networks.

Internet Protocol (IP) Address

An IP address is a unique identifier for each device connected to your router. It consists of a series of values separated by periods. Understanding and managing IP addresses can help you identify and troubleshoot connectivity issues.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

WPS simplifies the process of adding WiFi devices to your NETGEAR router’s secure network. By using WPS, you can add devices without manually entering the network name (SSID) and password on each device. This is a convenient and secure way to expand your network.

Using with Verizon Fios

You can use your NETGEAR router or mesh system with Verizon Fios by connecting it to your Fios modem router (gateway). For optimal performance, consider putting your Fios gateway into bridge mode. This configuration allows you to utilize all the features of your NETGEAR router.
