We're getting this on all of our WAC124. hacked?
Anyway, here's how we solved it...
So Netgear's SSO is broken, at least for the WAC124. So the trick is how to acess the web GUI after Netgear broke it. You can still access after disabling the WAN connection, but then how to use the AP? Well, firewall it.
We used a Cisco Meraki MX to firewall the WAC124 and prevent it from accessing the internet. Just the WAC124, all devices connected to it still have internet access. So the WAC124 is prevented from accessing the internet and thus the end user is presented with the local login.
There you go, kick that personal-info-scraping SSO to the curb! Get your WAC124 back without paying support money to Netgear.
