WAX610 no web access after day zero setup
Hello Community,
I have configured the access point as a standalone in a web browser. The AP is connected to my router and I can see the IP address. I can connect to the WLAN that has been set up. However, I now no longer have access to the AP after I configured it via the day zero setup. The Bowser shows me a time out.
Using the Netgear Insight app is not an option. Nevertheless, I tried to get access to the AP with the app, the AP was also detected by the app. However, the app tells me that the device is in standalone mode and I should log in via the web interface to set Insight mode...
How can I get access via the web interface?
Regards

A little bit vague. Everything can work over the WAX610 LAN IP address, Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
The IP address can be discovered from whatever router resources (using connected devices, DHCP table, ...), by using the Insight App (just) for the discovery including the IP address, by using Windows Explorer network infrastructure list, ...
Thank you for your reply.
That is exactly what I had realized: I connected the AP directly to my laptop to configure it. Then I connected it to the router and read the IP address from the table of my router. Then I no longer had access through the browser (I did know the IP address).
I tried around for 2 days, restarted the AP etc. Then I turned everything off and slept another night over it.
When I turned everything back on, I tried again. And it works... I read about the exact same problem on another forum. For whatever, reason I had to wait until day two after the day zero setup. Not explainable.
Problem solved by itself, thank you very much!
