Need a way to access this device without a Netgear account. Currently I'm forced to reboot the cable modem to knock the down the internet site wide to get local access to the WAC124. Othewise it wants me to logon to a Netgear account to allow access to setup. How do you disable the Netgear logon and go directly to the router?
How does Netgear restore your administration password if forgotten as the manual states? Either they have the password or the ability to reset the password. Both are bad.
This is an area where commodity is weighted higher than whatever security policies on these Essential Wireless Access Point models.
Again no, Netgear does not have your device local admin password - it's coming from the device itself after answering the hopefully well-thought recovery questions.
It's a moot point as corporate has directed I remove the device because transmitting IT activity to outside entities is a violation of our security policy. This device was deemed incompatible with the sarbanes oxley act.
