Reverse from AP mode to Default

I was using my netgear x4s d7800 in ap mode for a while and now I am trying to reverse it back to default but was unsuccessful.

 

I stuck a pin in the reset button and hooked up all the cables appropriately however cannot seem to configure the unit.

 

After I click the prompt to automatically detect my settings I get stuck on a screen that says "wizard is performing quick scan of your PVC/protocol; please wait" after more than 20 mins of waiting I was still stuck on this screen and could not progress.

 

The DSL/Internet light is red (internet connection undetected) and can't seem to get it to turn white.

 

Firmware V1.0.1.10

Model: D7800|Nighthawk X4S – AC2600 WiFi VDSL/ADSL Modem Router

Re: Reverse from AP mode to Default

Can you access the modem's controls in the browser?

 

Can you connect through this:

 

http://www.routerlogin.net.

 

The manual is here:

 

D7800 | Product | Support | NETGEAR

 

If you can  get into that, you should be able to reverse the steps on page 253.

 

Maybe you have done all that. You don't say.

 

If you are using the setup wizard and that is what is failing, then try doing it manually. That's in the manual too.

Re: Reverse from AP mode to Default

The manual says that to get it to get into AP mode you:

 

  • ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Router / AP Mode.
    The Router / AP Mode page displays.
  • Select the AP Mode radio button.

My guess is that you just  deselect the AP Mode radio button.
