Set up an external captive portal for a WiFi
network
An external captive portal is a portal that is hosted by an external captive portal vendor.
That is, this type of portal is not stored on the access point. For an external captive portal,
you generally must register your devices with and purchase licenses from the vendor.
You can apply an external captive portal to multiple WiFi networks or you can apply a
unique external captive portal to each WiFi network
To set up an external captive portal for a WiFi network:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as
the access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 46.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
If you previously added the access point to a NETGEAR Insight network location and
managed the access point through the Insight app or Insight Cloud portal, enter the
Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over
WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 31.
The Dashboard page displays.
