Looking for the NETGEAR WGR826V default password? You probably have little reason to access your router on a regular basis so don't feel too bad if you've forgotten the WGR826V default password.
However, when you're troubleshooting a network problem and need to get in to the device, the WGR826V default password suddenly becomes very important.
For most versions of the NETGEAR WGR826V, the default password is password. As with most passwords, the WGR826V default password is case sensitive.
In addition to the WGR826V default password, you can also see the WGR826V default username and WGR826V default IP address in the table below.
Note: The NETGEAR WGR826V default password may be different for certain hardware or firmware versions.
If I have that information, I'll include the exact WGR826V version number along with the correct default password. You can usually find your NETGEAR WGR826V version number on the bottom of the router.
Be sure to change the default router password on your WGR826V to something more secure as soon as you're in. Then use a free password manager so you'll never forget your new WGR826V password.

At some point during the life of your particular NETGEAR WGR826V, the default password, username, and/or IP address might have been changed.
In most cases, if the NETGEAR WGR826V default IP address has been changed, the new IP address for the WGR826V will be the same as the default gateway IP address configured for your network connection.
