The access point requires 802.3at (PoE+) input. For optimal functioning, make sure
that you use an 802.3at (PoE+) switch and not an 802.3af (PoE) switch.
While the access point is starting or in the process of getting an IP address from a
DHCP server (or router functioning as a DHCP server) in your network, the
Power/Cloud LED initially lights solid amber and then blinks amber slowly. After
about two minutes, the Power/Cloud LED turns solid green or solid blue and the
access point is ready for you to perform the initial configuration.
For information about accessing the access point for initial configuration, see Connect
to the access point for initial configuration on page 30.
Connect to the access point for initial
configuration
After you set up the access point, you can use several methods to connect to it for initial
configuration.
You can use the NETGEAR Insight app on an iOS or Android mobile device, or use the
Insight Cloud portal or the local browser UI.
The Insight app and the Insight Cloud portal provide ease of access and let you configure
most features that are available on the access point. The local browser UI lets you
configure all features.
For information about using the Insight app or the Insight Cloud portal, see one of the
following sections:
•
Connect over WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 31
•
Connect over the Internet using the NETGEAR Insight Cloud portal on page 32
For information about using the local browser UI, see one of the following sections:
•
Connect over WiFi to the local browser UI for initial configuration on page 33
•
Connect over the LAN to the local browser UI for initial configuration on page 37
Note: If your network does not include a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a
DHCP server) and you do not perform the initial configuration of the access point as
described in one of these sections, you can connect only five clients to the access point
and the access point can provide an IP address to only five clients. To prevent this
situation, make sure that you perform the initial configuration of the access point.
