Hi,
Just for the clarify the WN370 can be managed by WC7600, WC9500, WC7600v2, WC7500 controllers.
Hi Murrayfield,
Welcome to the community! :)
I'm afraid to inform you that the WN730 can only be managed by the WC7600 wireless controller. Since you need a standalone access point, I suggest the WAC510 access point. Kindly check its specification and comparison with other NETGEAR access points on the data sheet here.

Hi DaneA
Thanks for the info. I did a bit more research in between posting the question and receiving your reply and I have a query. One of the documents I searched on came up with the following (page 2) https://www.netgear.com/images/pdf/WC7500_DS_30Mar16.pdf which seems to show support for the WN370 by the WC7500. Well I hope so 'cos I have bought one ;-)
Cheers

Yes, the WC7500 also supports the WN370. From my previous response to you, I have based my answer on page 1 of the WN370 installation guide here where it says "The WN370 access point can only be deployed in a network managed by a ProSAFE WC7600 wireless controller" under the section of 'Set Up the Access Point.'
