To set up your Netgear Nighthawk router, start by connecting it to your modem using an Ethernet cable. Plug in the power adapter and turn on the router. Connect your computer or device to the router’s Wi-Fi network, which will be listed on the router label. Open a web browser and enter “routerlogin net” or “192.168.1.1” to access the login page. Use the default username and password, typically "admin" and "password." Follow the on-screen prompts to configure your internet settings, set up Wi-Fi, and customize your network.
