Configuring R6300 as an access point after firmware upgrade
Hi, I installed a firmware update this morning on my R6300 router (I am not sure how to tell if I have a v1 or v2 model): Firmware Version V1.0.2.80_1.0.59 After the update, there is no ...
That is it. The access point configuration is under "Use other operation mode" at the bottom of the screen shot.
Thanks,

On the bottom of the router you will find a label with a the model number if follow by a v2 or other version that the version of the model you have.
R6300 without a version number is a version 1, if you have say R6300v2 you have a R6300 version 2, and so on depening on how many versions for that model.
Thanks for the tip. Mine is a version 1.
I could still use some help with configuring it as an access point after the firmware update.
Thanks,

Here is answer from a few months ago https://community.netgear.com/t5/R6000-Series-AC-WiFi-Routers/Is-AP-mode-in-R6300v1-possible/td-p/1231636
The last poster tells how the R6300v1 in a access point mode.
That is it. The access point configuration is under "Use other operation mode" at the bottom of the screen shot.
