Position Your Gateway
The modem router lets you access your network anywhere within the operating range of your
wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless connection can
vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your modem router. For example,
the thickness and number of walls the wireless signal passes through can limit the range.
Additionally, other wireless access points in and around your home might affect your modem
router’s signal. Wireless access points are modem routers, repeaters, WiFi range extenders,
or any other device that emits a wireless signal for network access.
Position your modem router according to the following guidelines:

Hardware Setup User Manual11
Place your modem router near the center of the area where your computers and other
devices operate, and within line of sight to your wireless devices.
Make sure that the modem router is within reach of an AC power outlet and near Ethernet
cables for wired computers.
Place the modem router in an elevated location, minimizing the number walls and ceilings
between the modem router and your other devices.
Place the modem router away from electrical devices such as these:
-Ceiling fans
-Home security systems
-Microwaves
-Computers
-Base of a cordless phone
-2.4 GHz cordless phone
Place the modem router away from large metal surfaces, large glass surfaces, and
insulated walls such as these:
-Solid metal door
-Aluminum studs
-Fish tanks
-Mirrors
-Brick
-Concrete
(Optional) If you have adjacent access points, use different radio frequency channels to
reduce interference.

recommends connecting your modem router directly to a cable wall
outlet. If you must use a splitter, use a splitter that is rated at 3.5 dBmv.
2. Connect the power adapter to the modem router and plug the power adapter in to an
electrical outlet.
3. Press the Power On/Off button on the rear panel of the modem router.
The Power LED lights green.

5. View or change the following settings:
Disable IPv4 Firewall Protection. The IPv4 firewall is enabled by default, which is
the recommended setting. Some advanced users might want to disable IPv4 firewall
protection to examine the traffic coming in from the Internet.
Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection. DoS protection protects your LAN against
denial of service attacks such as Syn flood, Smurf Attack, Ping of Death, and many
others. Select this check box only in special circumstances.
Default DMZ Server. This feature is sometimes helpful when you are playing online
games or videoconferencing, but it makes the firewall security less effective. See Set
Up a Default DMZ Server on page 48.
Respond to Ping on Internet Port. This feature allows your modem router to be
discovered. Use this feature only as a diagnostic tool or if you have a specific reason.
MTU Size (in bytes). The normal MTU (maximum transmit unit) value for most
Ethernet networks is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes for PPPoE connections. Change the

5. In the MTU Size field, enter a value from 64 to 1500.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your change is saved.
If you suspect an MTU problem, a common solution is to change the MTU to 1400. If you are
willing to experiment, you can gradually reduce the MTU from the maximum value of 1500
until the problem goes away. The following table describes common MTU sizes and
applications.
Table 2. Common MTU sizes
MTU Application
1500 The largest Ethernet packet size. This setting is typical for connections that do not use
PPPoE or VPN, and is the default value for NETGEAR modem routers, adapters, and
switches.
1492 Used in PPPoE environments.
1472 Maximum size to use for pinging. (Larger packets are fragmented.)
1468 Used in some DHCP environments.
1460 Usable by AOL if you do not have large email attachments, for example.
1436 Used in PPTP environments or with VPN.
1400 Maximum size for AOL DSL.
576 Typical value to connect to dial-up ISPs.

Set Up a Default DMZ Server
The default DMZ server feature is helpful when you are using some online games and
videoconferencing applications that are incompatible with Network Address Translation
(NAT). The modem router is programmed to recognize some of these applications and to
work correctly with them, but other applications might not function well. In some cases, one
local computer can run the application correctly if the IP address for that computer is entered
as the default DMZ server.
WARNING:
DMZ servers pose a security risk. A computer designated as the
default DMZ server loses much of the protection of the firewall and
is exposed to exploits from the Internet. If compromised, the DMZ
server computer can be used to attack other computers on your
network.
The modem router usually detects and discards incoming traffic from the Internet that is not a
response to one of your local computers or a service that you have configured in the Port
Forwarding/Port Triggering screen. Instead of discarding this traffic, you can have the modem
router forward the traffic to one computer on your network. This computer is called the default
DMZ server.
To set up a default DMZ server:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. http://192.168.0.1Type http://routerlogin.net or .
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.

4. Select ADVANCED > Setup > WAN Setup.
5. Select the Default DMZ Server check box.
6. Type the IP address.

Change the Modem Router’s Device Name
The modem router’s device name is C3700. This device name displays in file manager when
you browse your network.
To change the modem router’s device name:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. Type http://routerlogin.net or http://192.168.0.1.

Change the LAN TCP/IP Settings
The modem router is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act
as a DHCP server. The modem router’s default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
N600 WiFi Cable Modem Router Model C3700
N600 WiFi Cable Modem Router Model C3700

If you changed the LAN IP address of the modem router, you are disconnected when this
change takes effect.
To reconnect, close your browser, relaunch it, and log in to the modem router.
Specify the IP Addresses That the Modem
Router Assigns
By default, the modem router acts as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.
The modem router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers
connected to the LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the
modem router.
These addresses must be part of the same IP address subnet as the modem router’s LAN IP
address. Using the default addressing scheme, define a range between 192.168.0.2 and
192.168.0.254, although you can save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.
To specify the pool of IP addresses that the modem router assigns:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. Type http://routerlogin.net or http://192.168.0.1.
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
