To use the NETGEAR Insight mobile app to add the router to an Insight managed
network:
1. On your iOS or Android mobile device, visit the app store, search for NETGEAR
Insight, and download the app.
2. Open the NETGEAR Insight app on your mobile device.
3. If you did not set up a NETGEAR account yet, tap Create NETGEAR Account and
follow the onscreen instructions.
4. To log in to your NETGEAR account, enter your credentials and tap LOG IN.
5. Name your network and specify a device admin password that applies to all devices
that you add to this network.
6. Tap the Next button.
7. To add the router to your account, use one of the following options:
• If the router is connected through a WiFi access point to the same WiFi network
as the NETGEAR Insight app, scan the network so that Insight can find the router
and you can add it to your Insight account.
• If the router is not connected to the same WiFi network as the NETGEAR Insight
app, do one of the following, using the information that is on the router label:
- Scan the serial number bar code.
- Scan the QR code. (The QR code is located on the router label and is displayed
at the upper right corner of the Dashboard in the local browser interface.)
- Enter the serial number manually.
Note: You might be prompted to connect the router to power and to an uplink.
Since you already did this, tap the Next button.
The NETGEAR Insight app discovers the router and registers it on the network that
you named earlier in this procedure. When the router is connected to the Insight
cloud and registered, the Cloud LED lights solid blue.
You can now select the router to configure and manage it or you can use the
NETGEAR Insight app to access the router later to view or change the configuration
settings.
