Configure the AirBridge as a client bridge

You can configure the AirBridge as a client bridge. You install the client bridge at a
detached site to provide network and Internet connectivity to a single wired device that
is not WiFi-capable on its own. For example, you could connect a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ)
camera to a client bridge.
This setup does not require a line of sight between the access point at the main site and
the client bridge. The access point with which the client bridge associates can be either
another AirBridge or a different model access point.
To configure the AirBridge as a client bridge:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
AirBridge or directly to the AirBridge through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AirBridge.
The login page displays.
If your browser does not display the login page but displays a security message and
does not let you proceed, see Log in to the AirBridge after initial setup on page 31.
3. Enter the AirBridge user name and local device password.
The user name is admin. The local device password is the one that you specified
the first time that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
If you previously managed the AirBridge through the NETGEAR Insight app or Insight
Cloud portal, enter the Insight network password for the Insight network location to
which the AirBridge was assigned (see Connect over WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight
App on an iOS or Android mobile device on page 13).
The Device Status page displays the Device Information section and other sections.
4. Under Network, select Wireless.
The Wireless Settings page displays.
5. From the Operation Mode menu, select Client Bridge.
