How to Reset Netgear WNDR3700

Resetting your Netgear WNDR3700 is one of the easiest ways to correct almost all common technical issues that you may experience over the life of your modem. It’s a super handy tool to have in your troubleshooting repertoire and can save you hours on the phone with your provider. Here’s how it’s done:

  1. Plug your modem in to the power supply and wait 2 minutes for it to boot up fully. You’ll know it’s booted fully when the wireless lights come on.
  2. Locate the reset button on the back of the modem. It’ll be on the same side where all the ports are located. Generally reset buttons on this kind of device will just be a tiny hole that may or may not be labeled.
  3. You’ll need a flattened paperclip or pen cartridge to do this next part. Press down and hold the reset button for 30 seconds with your modem still plugged in. You should feel a small dull click when you press in the reset button with your paperclip.
  4. Now wait a few minutes for your modem to reset and reboot itself. You’ll know it’s finished and ready to use when the WiFi lights come back on.

Tip: Still not resetting? Try just holding down for 15 or 20 seconds instead of the full 30. Some firmware versions differ on the number of seconds needed for a reset.

How to Find Your IP Address

This method works on Windows computers and does not require any software to be downloaded. You’ll be using command prompt to find the internal IP address so you can log into your WiFi router or modem router’s settings panel.

  1. Click the start menu in the bottom left of your screen.
  2. In the search bar in your start menu, type in “cmd.exe” and then click on that program when it appears in the search.
  3. When the program opens, you’ll see a black window on your screen with white text.
  4. Type into the program “ipconfig“, then hit Enter. Your window should look like the one shown below. The IP address circled below shows where your internal IP address will be on your command prompt window. Now you can move on to accessing your modem or modem router’s settings admin panel.

    Good router but signal is not strong enough. I live in a single-story 1600 sq ft house and the router is in the middle of the house and the signal is intermittent in the room next to the router. Signal does not travel well through a wall in adjacent rooms.

    When Netgear routers work, they work great. When they don’t you are pretty much held hostage by the customer service reps in the Philippines who want to charge you $80.00 if you router is more than 90 days old. Even if you just pulled it out of the box and registered it 120 days after you purchased it. I will now go by another router for $100 and it will NOT be one from Netgear. Another example of the NAW (New American Way).Yours Truly,Disgusted in America

    WNDR3700V5. Bought two. Both are Dead On Arrival. Called Netgear. They agreed that the devices are not behaving properly. Looks like they did not install proper firmware? They are supposed to respond to “www.routerlogin.net but did not. Also the IP Address default of 192.168.1.1 was not showing up in ipconfig. It was some other off-the-wall address beginning with 169… That address was also unresponsive…Tested both devices both were failing with same problem(s).I have a WNDR3700V3 that has been running for quite some time. Have had some flaky problems lately where I could not access a remote site that I have. Cell phone was able to contact the site if I turned off wi-fi so that it did not go through the router. Either the router or some peculiar network problem out on the internet. Got new routers to replace it and see if that fixed the problem. Other router was to be a backup since save/restore of router data might not work in the future if routers are not identical… If I could just have gotten a WNDR3700V3, it would have solved a LOT of problem but they keep “upgrading” to new versions that probably are not compatible for save/restore of router data.I’ve never returned anything before. Netgear said to return them through Amazon. So I am shortly driving to UPS store to send them back to Amazon.

    Easy set up. Quick start guide is decent, but if you are not network savvy, open the online guide before disconnecting your old network. Good upgrade for people still running a G router and do not need a newer AC grade network.

    Customer – October 27, 2015

    Plug it in, and it works. No hassle. No hoops to jump through connecting to it so long as you follow the instructions, which are quite clear and easy to follow.Extras: the Netgear Genie software is a bonus – I can see who is on my network and (if I ever had to) remove any uninvited guests. It has a link to speedtest.net – kind of handy. Has parental controls, but I haven’t needed that feature. I really like the ability to add an external storage device (via USB) to the router. It’s convenient for sharing files with others on the network.Range? Well, I’m going to have to walk around with my phone and laptop a bit more to give a more accurate assessment of the router’s capabilities. But I can say this: the router and cable modem are in a ~13×13 room with wooden walls and one window. I placed it next to the window. About 25 ft. away (and through a wall), it gets a minimum of 3 bars, no less. That’s not particularly mind-blowing. However, the Internet signal is steady and doesn’t seem any slower than when I’m right next to the router. I suspect that in a larger home, or one with many rooms, that adding a netgear signal booster/repeater/range-extender would be a worthwhile investment. I personally would go with this one here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L0YLRUW?keywords=netgearrangeextender&qid=1445977820&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1Overall, I’m very satisfied with this router. Quite a solid purchase. It works, and the extra features are quite functional rather than superfluous.

    Excellent router, was able to flash DD-WRT on it and have enjoyed it thoroughly. I can’t really give a review of its stock use because I flashed it immediately after I got it (it was the reason I bought the model because it supported it).

    (There are 5 hardware revisions. This is version 5 and is the only one that is not supported by DD-WRT) I bought this router from Fry’s Electronics about 1 month ago, from the date of this review. From the very start, I found the interface to be unintuitive and slow. The WiFi would often slow down, requiring a factory reset to get it back up to speed. Even after a firmware update, the router would not support IPv6, despite reporting having a LAN and WAN IPv6 adress. Videos, especially were loading inconsistently on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. This router is such a pain to troubleshoot because the interface is so convoluted and confusing. I can’t even find an easy way to enable Telnet on this.The hardware itself is okay. The router is plain, and clearly labels all ports and buttons, and it runs reasonably warm, but Netgear has loaded some really awful firmware onto it. Don’t even bother installing their “Genie” app, it’s even less useful than the router interface, actually, just don’t buy this router.

    David Cohen NETGEAR Team – November 15, 2015

    I’m not very happy with this router. I have a fairly small 1700 sqft home and picked this up to replace a cheapo generic router that didn’t have enough range to deliver reliable connections in my backyard. Even though this is supposed to support medium to large homes, the range is worse than my old one (the 5G range is abysmal). It’s also very slow to start up.The user interface is pretty good, and it’s nice that you have the option to add a guest network. But it’s not enough to make up for the poor range.

    KARINA P. – November 17, 2015

    I have had this router for quite some time. I did not buy it from Amazon but it’s all the same. I found the original firmware to be buggy and would actually reboot and/or drop the signal in general. I finally upgraded to ddwrt firmware and I haven’t had an issue at all. It no longer reboots nor the signal drops. This is why I gave it a 4 star.

    This router replaced my poor quality TP-LINK TL-WR841N Router (AVOID). Out of the box this router looks good. It was very easy to set up, and even has a ‘cute’ pre-set password. Mine was good enough that I’ll probably keep it forever; maybe I’ll even use it on my bank accounts! (okay, maybe not..)All of my speed tests with it have had great results. This is not the bottleneck to my 60Mbps internet speed, which is what you want in a router. I am able to stream video easily. It has dual-band networks, but I’ve only used the 2.4 GHz frequency because that’s what my Chromecast is on and its still plenty fast.Ports were easy to forward (if you’re in to that type of thing), firmware was easy to update (I think you can even use open source firmware, if you’re in to that type of thing), and the network covers a nice area (like my car when I’m outside sitting in it).Its a bit more expensive than some routers, but also less expensive for others. Due to my experience with inexpensive/cheap routers, I would recommend this router.

    BEWARE!!!!!! Purchased this based on Netgear’s website instructions on how to configure this router to be used as a wireless access point as I have spotty coverage in my home and I currently have a Netgear WNDR3400 router. When I opened the sealed box which is for a Netgear N600 Dual Band Gigabit router (WNDR3700), i found a WNDR3800 router with a disk for WNDR3700v2 firmware. I could not get the router to function as a WAP as the set-up would not even give an option to enable WAP (which the instructions claim it should). The router would not even set up with Xfinity nor recognize the Arris Surfboard SB6141 modem I have. Upon reseraching Netgear’s website, apparently the WNDR3800 is no longer supported so I have no idea why it was shipped and sold as a WNDR3700. Shame on someone! Sending right back to Amazon!

    The router functions fine, but the customer service provided by Netgear is awful. I had a security breach on my router and called Netgear for support. After 35 minutes of conversation, I learned that because my 90 days of free support had elapsed, I was expected to pay a 3rd party (Bomgar) $129 for a year of support in order to get my security breach fixed. I spent 2 hours on the phone before learning that my system was fine (I had fixed it myself a day earlier–though my virus protection software still identified a problem before and after the call with Bombar). Absolutely a horrible experience. I recommend finding a company with decent customer support.

    Definitely was sent an “used” router. You could at least use a new bag so the old sticker isn’t there, instead of just using another sticker and tried to cover up the old sticker. Have problems trying to connect thru the browsers too. It worked once and that was it. Can’t even connect to it, unless I connect it directly to my computer.

    This router served us well for a while, but now suddenly is acting up. We have 4 networks set up — a 2.4GHz network, a 5GHz network, a guest network on 2.4 GHz and a guest network on 5GHz. The guest network on 5GHz just never showed up, on any device, ever. But we let that slide.Now suddenly the 2.4 network is refusing connections. The 5 is still working okay, and strangely enough, so is the 2.4 guest network. I googled to try and find a solution, and came across a lot of posts regarding 2.4GHz “radio death”. I’m not sure if this is affecting our router, because the 2.4 guest network is working. But now we only have a working 5 and 2.4 guest, a non-working 2.4, and a 5 guest that we never ever saw. Maybe it’s time to buy another router.

    I purchased this router several years ago and it worked flawlessly until several months ago. It started locking up every other week at first. Then it began locking up every week, then a couple of times a week, finally it is locking up several times a day. A lockup requires rebooting the router and waiting a few minutes to restore the connection. Updating the firmware to the latest version had no effect whatsoever. Netgear customer support wants $130 to fix it out of warranty and “give” me a new one year warranty. WHAT! A new one costs $80! And the latest Netgear, the AC1900, is worse than the 3700 as far as the lockup problem goes, based on the reviews. I ordered a Securifi Almond 2015 instead.PS: I found the greatest signal strength for the 3700 when placing its long direction at right angles to the direction to the furthest client. I picked up 1-2 bars of signal strength as a result.

    If you have windows 10, you have to download an older version of netgear genie for this to work. I looked around and tried about 5 different download links without luck before I finally found one that worked. Unfortunately the newest version of netgear genie will not work for you so with a little work, I was able to make it work.I bought this in used condition and paid half of the price. I had to push the little hidden button underneath to factory reset it because the seller didn’t do it. Shipping was fast when I paisley 8.99 for 1 day shipping and got it on a Saturday. Works with xfinity. My Internet is much faster. With a little bit of research, you can do this yourself. I am not an expert but I got it done. When you do finally find the right netgear genie download that will work for you, setup is a breeze. Just don’t update the genie because the newest version crashes! Make sure you do update the firmware.It gives you an option to change channels and shows how many in your area are on 1,6 and 11. Find one of these that has the least amount of houses on them and nothing on a channel near them if you can.I was able to put some of my other devices on the other 5ghz band to free up space on the 2.4ghz channel. My phones, xbox 1, Amazon stick and a kindle were able to move to the 5ghz. I get 54 down and 12 up speed on my laptop with other things running on xfinity blast Internet about 20 feet away. I usually have about 10 things running at the same time and it is fast! Nice upgrade.It took some time and a little work but I got it done. Only 4 stars for the hassle of the latest netgear genie crashing on Windows 10.

    I did not buy this modem router from Amazon but instead from other site. I purchased it on July 2015.So far the modem was ok was just warranting just a restart every week to get it working.Now the situation is really worse i have to switch off every day and the switch it on. the 2.4G network stops working mainly. When I called up netgear they suggested me to take up the 6 months phone tech support plan which costs same as the new modem. so I would better get out of this and buy a top seller on amazon.Before buying I saw some bad reviews never thought the modem will stop working within an year and will require technical support to fix configuration.I would suggest to go with trusted brand in cable modem that this even if that costs few more bucks.The CSR told me that the problem is due to configuration so I wanted to know how come the configuration has changed all on sudden now and if I can get that audit log the problem is due to a config change done recently I am ok to pay. But he said he can;t provide that. Any ways forget netgear in future

    I do not recommend this router. The coverage is not very good. I just swapped it out with my old, trustworthy (and cheap) wgr614 and I don’t see any difference in coverage! Also, even though the N600 touts 2-bands, and I’m a techie, very few of my electronics use the 5.0 frequency.Lastly, the N600 has very restrictive software. I’ve been trying to hard reset it for the past 2 hours and haven’t been successful. Get the cheaper wgr614 and save your money. The N600 isn’t worth it!

    A little slower than I expected. I replaced a separate Arris SB6183 modem and Belkin router with the Netgear N600 when the router failed. The N600 is a combination cable modem and router. The SB6183 has 16 download and 4 upload channels with an 686 Mb/s speed. I was thinking one box was better than two. I carefully examined the external package when I bought the N600 from Staples and could not identify the number of channels or the speed. When a connected it to the network and worked with it a while, I noticed a definite difference in throughput. The N600 was slower. I performed some more research and discovered, mush to my dissatisfaction, it has only 8 download and 4 upload channels with a 340 Mb/s speed. Also most routers have at least 4 Ethernet ports, but this model has only two.

    NETGER – WORST PRODUCT SUPPORT IN THE WORLD. You get 90 days online support, when that is over “tough luck”. My WNDR3700v3 dual band wireless router worked great until the 9th month where it stopped connecting to the internet. I use Win 7 Pro and network/sharing center shows connection, but every website times out. I called their phone support and young lady asked several questions, then found out I was out of the 90 day window and said it could be fixed if I purchased a years premium support for $159 and I could have the router returned. Otherwise, no support. I could use their customer forums but they were no help. So I have a defective router still in warranty and cannot even find a way to return it. After the 90 days, if you don’t pay they have zero interest in your problem. while it worked it was great, but now useless. I can buy new router cheaper than $159 but WILL NOT BE A NETGEAR. I am sure if their support people read this review, they won’t care at all.. BEWARE!!!!

    This router is a well designed piece of hardware that not only functions flawlessly, but was extremely easy to setup. The instructions were simple to follow and the router already comes setup with a name and decent strength password but both are easily changed if you feel it is necessary. The aesthetics of the hardware are clean and nice and it blends in with the other computer/Internet hardware and doesn’t stick out nor is it bulky. Both the 2.4 ghz and the 5 ghz are available and work very well. I get great coverage of my house without the need for a repeater and it easily handles all of my devices without dropping any or slowing down. It is loaded with high end features and functions you’d find on more expensive models but is more user friendly than those types. Overall it is a great router for every level of Internet user from occasional browsing on your phone or tablet, to pc gaming and networking.

DLNA Ready and great for port forwarding. I can also block unwanted websites from being accessed. The only drawback is that I have to reinput them whenever there is a power outage or if I have to reset the router

    The Reviewer – June 6, 2016

    This device is very reliable. It has been operating for 3 months straight without fault or interruption. This device handles heavy usage for a mid sized family, very well. Multiple phones, streaming, gaming, and general surfing can take place simultaneously.For advanced users: I recommend that you perform a firmware update rigjt after installation. The router has a usb 2.0 port and features a lite NAS capability. Mine handles a 1 TB Toshiba external drive, just fine. I am able to access media stored on this drive from all of my networked computers. As an added bonus, both the roku 1 and roku TV can detect the NAS and stream media such as music and movies directly from the drive. Depending on how many files you have on your drive, it can take a while for the router to index them all. That’s why I call it a lite NAS. If you are into heavy DLNA streaming and have thousands of media files, I would not recommend using this as your primary NAS.

When I logged into the router, the default language WASN’T English. I did a factory restore with the same results. Fortunately, I was able to figure out how to get it back to English.

    I live in a huge apartment building with at least 40 apartments all in the same building. This caused a lot of problems with my wifi, because all these apartments are all on the 2.4ghz network with their routers, including me. With so many people on the same network, I could never get reliable wifi speeds and nowhere near even half the speeds I paid for. After downloading Wifi Analyzer app, I saw just how crowded my network was, yet no one was on the 5ghz network. So, I took a gamble and ordered this router in a effort to get on that open 5ghz network…and it worked like a charm! I went from getting at best 30mbps speeds (usually 20mbps, and at prime time 10pm at night was lucky to get 8mbps) to regularly pulling around 80mbps! I did end up with some other issues however, the biggest one being that the range on this router with the 5ghz network is not the best. I experience slower speeds when there are walls between me and the router. Also, neither my chromecast nor my laptop are compatable with 5ghz. My Amazon firestick works great though, and the new model chromecast is compatible so I will just need to upgrade that in the future. For right now, since this is a dual band router, my laptop and chromecast run on the 2.4ghz network, and my phone and firestick connect to the 5ghz. I am also adding a wifi adapter to my laptop that will allow me to pick up the faster network as well. As soon as I upgrade all of my equipment, I will have blazing speeds all the time! I definitely recommend this router to anyone who is having connection and speed issues due to an over crowded network. And since you can always buy an adapter for your laptop, compatability problems can be easily solved.

    I have owned this router for just over a year and a half now. When it wants to work it is great but over the past year it has really began to deteriorate in performance. The problems began last summer when the wifi internet connectivity would randomly go out for less than an hour maybe once or twice a month. However over the last 4 months the issue of internet connectivity through wifi has become much more prevalent. It has become a daily struggle of when and how many times will the connectivity fail. Luckily I purchased the 2 year warranty with SquareTrade so I will be returning it for a refund. Buyer beware.

    Pros: Good router, decent interface, and fairly easy to flash to dd-wrt.Cons: Netgear Genie software adds nothing and drags system performance. No SNMP (unless you switch to dd-wrt). Only lasted a couple years before the WAN port died.

    This Wireless N600 Router (see photo) works well in a residential home.There are many settings, but you can set up the router in less than 10 minutes, even without reading the quick card. Typically the wizard menu lets you do that.Wifi is ok, great speeds, but I typically turn it off when not in use, as the house is very well wired with Cat-5 ports in almost every room. There is a reason for that too.Wifi maybe harmful and over a 10-15 year period it may cause harm to your health, especially to young children that have not gotten to the age of 22 yet. For more information on that, search YouTube for: “Barrie Trower 2016.”Enjoy!

    solid, fast dual-band router. My first N600 lasted 4 years with no problems before a port failed requiring replacement. Beware, attempting to load a v5 hardware with configuration from my previous v2 N600 failed, but mysteriously caused the 2.4 GHz network to be blocked from the 5 GHz network or the wired network. Strange bug which wasted a lot of my time. But if you are setting up from scratch this should not be a problem for you.

    After just over a year of use, the 2.4GHz radio seems to be fried as none of the devices will stay connected to it for any length of time – but the 5GHz radio is working like a champ. An internet search shows that this is a common item with this router. It’s worked well until this, but now I’m forced to buy a new router as this one is just out of warranty and Netgear won’t help me. That’s what I get for not buying my usual Linksys…

    I have had this for about a year now and my wireless signal keeps dropping every day for few minutes. I verified the incoming internet is good and works when directly plugged in – but wireless is a mess.

    Sean Watts – December 13, 2016

    I took the chance and bought the N600v2 from Goodwill. It only came with the power supply and original ethernet cable (no surprise), so I reset it to the factory settings and plugged it in. It worked perfectly. Then I went online and downloaded the latest firmware and instructions for setting up the wi-fi. Not one problem.Of course, I’ve only been using it for a few days, but I’ve already doubled my connection speed (from 100 mps to 200) and looking to soon upgrade the powerline adapter to possibly bring it up to the full 1000 mps for my desktop computer.

    Beware of Netgear support, they are terrible to work with. They want to charge you $30 to replace any defective unit in a timely manner, other then that they just kind of jerk you along. Product is fine if it works, if not throw it away because they are not going to help. Beware!

    Ughmahedhurtz – February 28, 2017

    My only real problem with it is that it isn’t supported by DD-WRT. That firmware only supports hardware versions v1-v4, and this is v5. Apparently, this used an Atheros chip in the first 4 versions and v5 now uses a MediaTek, which isn’t (yet?) supported. Other open-source firmware supports it with varying degrees of user-friendliness. Fair warning.

    Love it, have had it for about a year or two now, and to be honest the only reason I did not review it earlier, was that I kinda just set it up and forgot about it. That is after being amazed at the speed, and distance increase.

    Save money by owning your own cable modem! NOT. Instant problems with video game lag and YouTube freezing. Now nothing works. Huge POS. Do yourself a favor and don’t buy anything that says Netgear. It tests oh so fast, but doesn’t work and isn’t functional. Oh so great ping, but why the freezing? I don’t care about tech support and all that crap, I expect plug and play like I had with the Motorola. Don’t think you can save money and have a tolerable performance with this POS. In most cases, you get what you pay for, and this thing does not work. Downloadable software from the Netgear site? equally stupid and useless.

    Lucore – August 16, 2017

    I bought elsewhere around 2012, not here, but I feel like I should give my two cents anyway. Seemed to work well enough for a while, then started dropping connections regularly. It would seem Netgear’s new firmware sucks. I thought the router and/or power adapter was failing, then I did a little homework and re-flashed with OpenWrt (Linux based) firmware instead. Haven’t done extensive testing but feels like it works better.Should anyone else do this, Caution: openwrt disables wifi for security reasons, so you need to reconnect to one of the router Ethernet ports and manually set the IP to 192.168.1.2, then login at 192.168.1.1 and enable wifi in there. Hopefully this helps.

    Ernesto Hernández-Novich – September 9, 2017

    The one I bought is actually a WNDR3700v4.The stock NetGear firmware is flaky and slow. Signal power was very poor inside my house (brick and concrete, not drywall) not being able to connect two rooms away from its location. There’s no way to set the router’s time and date by hand, and it tries to use NTP (Network Time Protocol) in order to fetch time from remote servers. This would be okay, however it only tries to use the hardcoded Netgear’s servers (that are usualy down or broken), and there’s no way to pick alternate NTP servers. The access restriction, firewall, and VPN setup were also quite limited. Five firmware upgrades since I bought it didn’t improve nor solve my issues.Fortunately, this router is compatible with DD-WRT. After reading DD-WRT’s on-line documentation, I was able to replace Netgear’s firmware with DD-WRT in an easy to follow, ten minutes, two-stage process. It is now faster, properly in sync with global NTP servers, and there are waaaaaaaay more features you can control. In particular, I was able too boost transmission power: not only am I able to use it anywhere in my apartment, but I can get a good signal from the ground floor (I live on the 7th. floor) also.It is a good piece of hardware with a lousy firmware. Plan to use DD-WRT if you want to enjoy it thoroughly. If you feel that installing DD-WRT is way over your abilities, and don’t have a friend nearby able to help you, don’t buy it.

    Have owned this router for about 8 years. It has performed flawlessly. Had several Linksys routers that failed just passed the warranty period which prompted me to change to Netgear. This router is easy to set up, has excellent range and has never given me a bit of trouble. And it looks pretty sweet too. I purchase nothing but Netgear product for my home and my family that relies on me to set up their system. I only buy Netgear products and have not had any problems with any of their product.

    Way late for a review but for anyone else who has one and finds wired speeds are slow: after using several of these for years I upgraded my internet service to 400mbps. Didn’t get any where near that. After a couple of days of troubleshooting it turns out that even though these routers advertise GigE ports they can only support around 300mbps. Talking about _wired_ not wireless.
