Scratch anything. Strictly stick to 100% with the installation guide: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/WAC104/WAC104_IG_EN.pdf

Launch a web browser on a WiFi-enabled device that has a WiFi connection to the
AP (see Step 2. Join the AP’s WiFi network) and enter http://www.aplogin.net or
http://www.aplogin.com in the address field.
These URLs are the same as the IP address 192.168.0.100.

So what are you taking away from this? Its what it is. Would love to tell you the common sense accessing the WAC104 over the LAN is possible. Of course, a "normal" AP behavior would be great RaghuHR please.

After a third factory reset, now it works using aplogin.com. This makes me sweat.

Excellent!
For my own curiosity Can the WAC104 now accessed direct from your other wireless or wired network using the WAC104 it's (current assigned) LAN IP address?
This safes me from buying a piece of hardware just to help other Netgear WAC104 customers.
