Turn off "Enable Neighbor AP" in Insight ?
Hello all, Does anyone know how to turn off "Enable Neighbor AP" in the Insight UI? I have noticed that enabling this feature causes regular packet loss (1-5 packets every few minutes) on the WA...
Thanks. Unfortunately, Insight doesnt' provide an option to do The "neighbor AP" scanning only on a few devices or channels. It's just on for all channels, all wifi access points. I plan to put in a feature request to ask for the ability to turn Neighbor AP scanning off completely or perhaps as you suggest, perform that scanning only on certain channels or devices.

Correct. Making it happen (enable/disable, set the intensity) on the local WAC5xx/WAX6xx Web UI would be much easier than having it on Insight. in whatever complexity level.

...and on the default intensity. Correct.

Have attempted to push this AP-based config for the moment with Netgear already.
