Default Settings for a Netgear 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server w/4-port Switch (WGPS606)

Someone gave my father-in-law an old Netgear wireless print server. It includes two USB ports (for printers) and four ethernet ports. The device can connect to an existing wireless network, so it’s essentially a wireless bridge device. He wanted to use it to extend Internet access to an out-building on his property.

I configured the device to work with his network. In the process, I had to find the default settings so I could connect to the device and configure it. Netgear no longer offers support for this device and I wasn’t able to download the manual from Netgear’s Website. I had to use third-party sources. I figured I’d go ahead and post the default settings needed to connect to this device.

  Thanks for the follow-up Jeff. When I worked on the device I couldn’t download the manuals from the site. It must have been a temporary problem so thanks for letting me know.

Thi unit stopped working after I changed the WiFi setup to WPA2. It may support WPA without a FW upgrade, but now I cannot wake it up even through a clear WiFi, unencrypted.

Is there a way to get to it through the Ethernet port?

Anyone?
