Cannot log in WAX610 setting screen.

i arranged a wax610 as shown in below diagram.

 

NETGEAR 305P ---- [internet]

   |               |

PC         WAX610

 

(1)  i accessed aplogin.net via PC'S WebBrowser (Edge).

      i set a new admin passward , New SSID , Wifi Passward(Passphrase) in a setup wizard.

      i saw an Applying custom settings process and recorded a SSID,Passward,Device IP in the dialogue.

(2)  i could connected WAX610 with new SSID and password and i could access  to the NETGEAR web or other.

(3) i tryed access to the WAX610  SETUP SCREEN to manage setting information or update firmware.

     i put the IP address shown in the  dialogue in step(1) above.  but i was only linked to the NETGEAR web.

    That IP address was probably assigned by whatever device does act as a DHCP server for your network. Typically its the router.

     

    Either try the aplogin.net again while connected to the newly configured SSID, permitting that SSID is connecting to the samr network, the same VLAN.

     

    Or consult the DHCP server what IP address was dynamically assigned. If you expect the WAX610 to re-appear with the same IP address, set a MAC<>IP address reservation in place (naming or how-to depends on the DHCP server).

     

  • Thank you for your quick advice.

    i will follow the advice and report the result.
