In reply to Ronald TROWELL. If you are only creating a local area network, this will work without a cable modem. If you are trying to connect to the internet, you will need a cable modem.

In reply to Warren. Check the ethernet cables on both the Cable Modem & Router to make sure they are connected correctly. If that doesn't work, connect a laptop or computer directly to the cable modem and see if you get a connection then. Lastly, if you are getting an internet connection directly from the modem, try resetting your router.

I tried to turn up a Netgear AC1750 router today. Connected two iphones and a smart tv with no problem.
Everything went well, but I can’t get internet access. Any ideas why???

In reply to Donna Kilburn.

I recommend resetting your router by pushing in and holding the reset button until your device resets. That button is located behind the device. Once restarted, everything should return back to default. This means anything connected via ethernet cable should automatically start working.

For your wireless – Go on a computer that is connected to your router. Log into your router by typing in 192.168.1.1 in any web browser. Use the default login for the router. Look for the large icon that says “Wireless”. Underneath that is the SSID & Password. You can use that to connect all your devices on the wireless network. Let me know if that helps.

I just bought a AC1750 router and cannot get it to work on all my devises. I have cable plus I have a TVO box going to my TV. I can’t get my netflex to work even though I tried several times and my bedroom TV wont connet. They show netgear73 is locked and I cant put in the password. I am showing a amber light on the router. What should I do now..

In reply to tom. The Router won't boost the Cable Modem's WiFi range because it's running off of it's own frequency. If both devices are next to each other, I would recommend using one instead of both.

if the cable modem has wireless capability, can you still hook up the netgear ac1750 and increase wifi capacity?

In reply to D Boxberger. The Amber LED color indicates the speed of your Ethernet connection. White is for Gigabit Ethernet connections and amber is for 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps Ethernet connections. Hope this helps.
