Netgear Router Repair

Routers are a staple of an Internet-connected home. They take packets of data that are sent through the internet, ‘read’ the destination on the packet, and forward it to the next router on the way to its destination. The network of routers that makes it possible to send data packets all over the world is called an internetwork, and we usually refer to it as the Internet (note the capital I).

Netgear routers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and the user can buy them based on the size of the house that needs to be covered as well as ways that the Internet will be put to use in that the house (gaming, watching videos, or covering lots of devices at once).

To identify the Netgear router that you have, you will need the model number and version number. If you have the box that the router was shipped in, you shouldn’t use that model number, as it might not be specific enough to correctly identify the exact router. The model number and version number are printed on the product label, which is on the bottom or back panel of the device. If there is no version number (v2, v5, etc), then the device is a v1 router. If the version number has the letters SP at the end, the router is specific to a certain Internet Service Provider. You should contact your Internet Service Provider for technical support with a router of this type.
