What do you mean I don’t have to reset it to factory settings if I find the ip?
I found the ip when I used an ip config command or on my Mac when I login into the network.
When I use any web browser to try and open the admin panel, it still doesn’t work. Do you have any suggestions for an ip scanner on macOS. Angry IP Scanner does not work because it’s developer certificate expired.

With this WAX35 in question connecting to the network in whatever way - to another device with a link to your LAN and the default gateway of the unknown other router, yes.

IP config shows the address(es) of the adpter(s) on your MAC, as well as the default gateway, the operational router LAN IP typically.

1. Yes, but this still isn’t getting me to the admin panel. I need to access the admin panel to turn off bridge mode. Is there another way?
2. Sorry I should have made it clearer, I used windows ipconfig command and on MAC in network preferences you can easily find ip of network your connected to.
