Setting up the Netgear Nighthawk X10 is a fairly straightforward process. Here are the steps to follow:

- Connect the router: Connect the power adapter to the router and plug it into a power outlet. Then, connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the WAN (Internet) port on the router and the other end to your modem.
- Power on the router: Press the power button on the router and wait for it to power on. It may take a few minutes for the router to fully start up.
- Connect to the router: Connect your computer or mobile device to the router’s Wi-Fi network. You should see a network with the name “NETGEAR-XXXX” (where “XXXX” is a unique identifier).
- Configure the router: Open a web browser and go to http://www.routerlogin.net. This will take you to the Netgear Nighthawk X10 setup page. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure your router. You may need to create a username and password to access the router’s settings.
- Update firmware: Once you’ve configured the router, it’s a good idea to update the firmware to the latest version. You can do this by going to the “Advanced” tab in the router’s settings and clicking “Firmware Update.”
- Customize settings: Finally, you can customize the router’s settings to suit your needs. This may include setting up a guest Wi-Fi network, parental controls, and more.
That’s it! Your Netgear Nighthawk X10 is now set up and ready to use.
