I have a mac and a Windows 8.1 box behind an Apple Airport Extreme router on a wireless network. When I do an IPCONFIG I get a default gateway of 192.168.0.1. When I put this address into a web browser I get a Netgear DM111PSPv2 configuration screen. I don't know why I am seeing a Netgear configuration screen when I have an Apple Airport Extreme router. Can anyone please explain this?

You probably connected to a Netgear router that has no password in your neighborhood.

AirPort Extreme's default LAN IP address is: 10.0.1.1

so you definitely was connected to your neighbor's router.

That Netgear DM111PSPv2 is a DSL modem that has no WiFi capabilities. That is likely the modem that your ISP provided, and which the Airport Extreme is connected to the internet through.
