Can't make r6080 an access point.

   "try"?  "seem"?

   None of that is a useful problem description.  It does not say what
you did.  It does not say what happened when you did it.  As usual,
showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations.

   I don't know what that means, either.  What, exactly, did you connect
to what?  (Hint: If a device has different types of ports, then
"connected to device" is not enough detail.)

   "can[']t or "cannot" is not a useful problem description.  See
"useful problem description [...]", above.

   Where, exactly did you get that address?

   That tells me exactly nothing about what you did, or what happened
when you did it.

   Thanks for the helpful links.

   Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation.  Get the User Manual (at least).  Read.  Look for a
topic like "Use the Router as a WiFi Access Point Only".
