    How do I get my NETGEAR WN1000RP to work?
    I tried setting up my NETGEAR WN1000RP booster, but when I accidentally clicked off the browser at setup before I could enter a passphrase. Can anyone point me in the right direction here?

    Easy way is Push the rest button on the back... and you start all over again. That will reset everything to factory defaults...

    This time write down the passphrase and tape it to the bottom. You WILL forget what it was at some point since login is automated....and it will save you doing it all over again when that happens.


    And trust me...you don't want the the key to be anything you can guess....the more like gibberish it seems, the harder it is to hack.

    Tried reset button on back of router, but it won't let me start again with the wifi booster.

    Power it off and reboot after you do that. THen try it again. This link might help.

    Switching it off and back on did the trick. It's now working fine. Thank you.
