routerlogin.com won't work because in AP mode the main router handles addressing and cannot translate that into the IP address of the AP.

What do you mean by "the router's IP address".

You need to track down the IP address of the R6700v3 in AP mode.

The usual way to find the IP address of the AP is to get into the router's GUI and look at its list of attached devices. Find the one for the AP and enter that into a browser.

If that doesn't work, tell us what happens when you try.

When I want to access an AP, I se the desktop genie for Windows. (A Mac version is also available.)

You can also manage "Guest" and some other settings with the desktop "app" for your operating system. This can be quicker and easier than diving into the browser graphical user interface (GUI).

Netgear is trying to kill this useful utility, but for the time being you can find it here:

Be warned that the genie installation file is wrapped up in a RAR archive that you have to decompress.

A good thing about the genie is that it provides a network map that can show the IP address of the AP as a clickable link.
