New to this forum. There's 3 issues I have ran into that some of you might have an answer. It pertains to security settings on a WN802T access point.
1. How do you determine the software version that is installed?
2. How can you change the login or user name from something other than "Admin"?
3. How can you prevent access to the access point settings over WiFi (or how do you limit access to the settings via a wired connection only)?
Appreciate any answers.

3. you can not - cuzanetAspirantThanks June.
I'm somewhat surprised that Netgear has not addressed the 2 (# 2 and 3) security violations.
All a hacker has to do is crack the password over WiFi and gain access to the network. - jmizoguchiVirtuosoYou can request feature enhancement with support via portal at
