Username is admin. Newer NETGEAR products require setting the admin password on first setup, so there is no usable factory-default password.

Factory reset

Go to http://www.routerlogin.net (192.168.1.1); newer NETGEAR products require you to set the admin password during first-time setup. To reset, hold the Reset button ~10 seconds until the Power LED blinks.
