Hey jose, can you access the router control panel via a wired connection? Who is your ISP and what modem/router have they given you?

I already tried wired connection, still not working. My ISP is optimum and I got netgear router .

 

Can you access the Netduma control panel? If you can can you go to the device manager and see if there is a number after 'WAN IP'. Also make sure you are on the latest version.

I tried but i can't access the netduma control panel.

 

Can you follow these instructions and see if they give you access. Make sure you do it on a wired connected and that your PC is set to connect with a dynamic IP, not a static one.

Have you done a factory reset or anything from the back?

 

Can you maybe take a screen shot of the error you get when trying to connect? Is that an error you get when connecting wired or wireless?

I didn't reset ,I think my ISP did (not sure)

Is that causes a problem?

 

Maybe.

 

But is the error you are getting when you are connecting wired? Can you take a screen shot of it? And can no devices connect to it? Remember that if they did do a factory reset then the new Wifi password is 'netdumar1'.

You shouldn't really do a reset from the back and should do it from the control panel but should be okay. Can you see the Netduma R1 wifi? If you can try to connect with the password 'netdumar1'

Yes I can see the WiFi, it won't let me connect with pc .when I tried to connect with cell phone, it says authentication failed .

 

Thats good if you can see the Wifi :) So you can't connect to it with the default password or 'netdumar1'?

When I use my cell phone, they asked me password and the default password not working,

 

Ok, back to your wired PC, can you take a screen shot of the specific error you're getting? Once you have access to the control panel you can hopefully change the Wifi password.

did you buy the router from the shop or is it a used one from ebay? (that might run a different Wifi password)
