WAC124 AP/router - cannot login
We have two WAC124s, both configured as access points and connected via ethernet to the router. These were straightforward to configure when we bought them and have worked well. However I recently tried to log into them and cannot access either of them. Trying to log in when they are connected to the internet takes you to the Netgear page - entering the login details results in some 'thinking' before the login page is just redisplayed. As an aside, why one has to connect to a server hundreds or thousands of miles away to access a device just a few feet away is beyond me. Disconnecting the devices from the internet and connecting directly, as described in the user manual, just results in a failure to connect. I do not believe that both devices suddenly developed the exact same problem so I'm baffled. I'd be most grateful for any suggestions. Thanks.WAC104 Access Point thinks its 1970
I am having the same issue, Firmware Version V1.0.4.21 The WAC-104 time configuration webpage only allows you to select a time zone and select daylight savings time. I can see the WAC-104 requesting DNS for time-a.netgear.com and time-b.netgear.com, assuming they are the hard coded NTP servers. I also confirmed ntp connectivity from my PC using "w32tm /stripchart /computer:time-a.netgear.com /dataonly /samples:5".No Router Login
I have an old AC2000 Dual Band Wireless Access Point, WiFi Router (WAC124) which is working fine. although I am just using it as an access point. I was able to log into it a while ago but have had to change my MyNetgear account details as I no longer had access to the registered e-mail address. Netgear support moved the router over to the new account. Unfortunately when I enter my details to log onto the router it goes through the login process but then just takes me back to the login page. I've tried this on a couple of PC's so I know its not a PC problem. Support is no longer available through Netgear.AP WAC124 doesn't work after upgrade!
Hello, I updated my WAC124 AP from WAC124-V1.0.4.4 to WAC124-V1.0.4.9 via webgui, but it stuck without completing the update. So I tried an older firmware version, WAC124-V1.0.4.6, downloaded from the official website. After updating, the AP stopped working. When I turn on the AP, the LED stays solid and no other LEDs light up. The reset button doesn't seem to work; after holding it down for more than 10 seconds, nothing changes (with the AP on). If I press the reset button with the AP off and then restart it, I see that the power and USB LEDs light up alternately and stay that way forever. What can I do to fix this? Thank you!
