Fix 5<\/strong>: For the Nighthawk router setup process, you have to access the setup wizard of your device. And, for this, it is important to have a wireless PC, laptop, or desktop. But, the device\u2019s software version must not be outdated. Else, you will experience the slow performance of the device, resulting in \u201ccan\u2019t access the Netgear Genie setup wizard\u201d issue. And, if you can\u2019t access the setup wizard, then how would you set up your Netgear router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fix 6<\/strong>: To access the Netgear Nighthawk setup<\/a><\/strong> page for router configuration, there is a need to keep the router\u2019s default web address or IP, and correct default login details handy.

The search bar will not work so avoid inserting the URL in the search bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
