What a shame, that Netgear does not seem willing to allow users to use that feature without paying for another subscription.
Curiously all other big players do not feel the need to block such features - which have nothing to do with central management - in their local only modes.
@William_vVthe only technial reason is syncing the mobility domain, but that should not pose a problem from a software perspective, just allowing a user to set it would suffice.
fipoac William_vV speedman 802.11r needs a centralized endpoint to share encryption keys between access points. Because of this I'm assuming the netgear cloud services handle that process. Typically other product lines will have a management endpoint that can be run locally, but this product line doesn't have that.
