I returned the first WAX206 thinking it was faulty, but the replacement has the same issue. When I configure it in 'router' mode, it works fine. However, when I change the mode to 'access point', it ...
Hi,
I recently purchased a WAX206 and I'm having similar issues as you are having when setting up in AP Mode.

rschilt if you start your own thread, we can help you with that as thread jumping is discouraged.
Make sure when you post to include your full setup, the issue, what you've tried
I was not seeking help but wanted to assist the person that logged the original ticket. I also own a WAX206 and been doing some troubleshooting with device in AP Mode and believe I have found a solution.
Not sure what made you think I was queue jumping - just wanted to help and wanted to make sure the person was still around before wasting time entering the steps I had taken.
But nevermind - you have already scared me off this forum.
Netgear... great products - but lousy Forum monitoring.
Hey Robert,
I admit I thought you were kind of "thread jumping" a little because you used the phrase "I'm having similar issues" rather than "I had similar issues", a minor difference I know. However, I believe it would indeed be welcome to share your solution as it might help the original requestor or another person that comes along with the same issue.
Like you, just trying to be a decent human and help where I can.
