If it is set up as an Access Point and DHCP is enabled, your router has probably issued it an IP address. Moreover, without a complete factory default reset, you probably cannot access the 602 using Netgear's recommended IP settings or methods. A hard factory reset will clear out any custom settings, which may not be desired. Also, the 602 may not show up as a client in you router DHCP client tables, but if the router can communicate with it, you can too. My router begins handing out addresses at 192.168.1.100. I see devices listed from .101 to .104. I used the ping command (ping 192.168.1.100) and got a response from 192.168.1.100, so I typed "http://192.168.1.100/" into my Browser and got the username (default) admin password (default) password or login page = success. No login = factory reset. You must find out the IP address that the router or other DHCP enabled device issued the WG-602. Lastly, a picture(s) screen shots of your custom settings -- if applicable -- may save a lot of time.
