I had a Netgear router that went bad so I bought a new one. My network name was Harkeynet for the old one. Is there any way that I can use that same Network with this new router? I changed the password to our old password, I think, but wanted to check via the wireless settings so I was trying to log in.
how can i change network name for my new netgear N3000rpv3?

To change your WiFi password or network name (SSID):

Enter the router user name and password when prompted.
The default user name is admin. The default password is password.

This worked for me thanks for your reply.
As you have mentioned that you have purchased new router, yes you can keep your old network name(Harkeynet). first you need to setup your router and then you can setup network name .
To setup your Netgear N3000rpv3 router you need to follow these steps:-
You need to plug in a cable from your existing modem to internet port of your router.
after connecting this cable connect a cable from port no-4 of your router to your computer. then follow these steps:
1. Press windows + R key that will open run window for you.
2. Type CMD in the run box.
3. Open Ipconfig and check network statistics.
4. Open your default gateway in any browser.
5. Type your user name and password .
6. that will open a setup wizard for you so follow the steps and you are good to go.
7. while following the setup wizard kindly make sure the settings you are choosing is correct
i.e time zone and wireless network name and key.
8. kindly upgrade the router firmware as well if there is any update pending over there.
