Managing M6 Pro with Insight Pro - Key Settings Missing?
Hi, I have purchased an Insight Pro subscription to try to manage my M6 Pro MR6450 mobile router remotely. I have successfully managed to get the router enrolled and can see it through the Insig...
Hey Jeff, I've encountered similar limitations with Insight Pro on the M6 Pro — some key settings like Ethernet and power mode don't show up remotely. It's frustrating, especially when these options are grayed out once you've set them up. Would love to know if anyone has found a solution or confirmed if these are just unsupported in Insight.
In addition, they said that the only way to manage those currently was to make sure the deviuce had a public IP address and then the local management GUI could be accessed remotely. User changes to device settings could then also need to be allowed through the Insight device profile..
Only way I manage my MR router is using the NG Mobile app or from the MRs web UI. Insight app isn't supporting of the MR line of products. Insight is mostly for NGs business line of Switches and Wireless APs.
I can enabled the ethernet port thru the Mobile app and operation Power modes as well.
Yeah, if you have access to the local network where the router is in use (or the mobile provider gives a public IP) then this is obviously the easy way to do it. I've solved my access issue by now running a mini PC in the local network that I can access remotely with TeamViewer - it is set up to already 'know' both the configured WiFi SSID and the default one of the router...
That should work too for remote access with a local PC connected to it.
Mobile app has it's uses as well when directly connected to it.
Enjoy.
