NETGEAR Support How do I remove a device from my Insight account?
Not something I have to do very often (but willing to give a try over the weekend). Following the removal from Insight I'd say the device will be factory reset, the existing config will (or has to be?) removed. The previous Insight config will be fine, the device has to be reconfigured from scratch.
That's about the normal process as far as I remember. Never seen some fancy keys for the device access or the like.
Time permitting,I'll Ifive a try on one of my WAX6xx or WBE7XX.

-Kurt.

Thanks for your help, best
