Wax206 Access Control
I Just Purchased A WAX206 To Use As An Access Point For My R7900P Router. If I Have Access Control Set Up On The 7900, do I Also Need To Set Up On The WAX206?
Oh big sorry please, I stand corrected. Had checked a R7900 instead of a R7900P. This model does have a single simple network ACL, indeed.
Said that, if you insist of managing device level MAC address ACL, both the R7900P and the WAX206 ACLs do the same style of filtering. So to have a MAC ACL to add an additional layer of control, you need to configure and maintain the ACL on both devices.
Sorry again 8-) Lack of coffee here...

You won't find much on the WAX206 in a section given over to modem/routers.
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
Business Wireless - NETGEAR Communities
You might like to search there for messages related to your problem.
I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
Check for various troubleshooting tips.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
