Find the IP address of the AP when you
cannot use routerlogin.net
Under the following circumstances, when the AP is operating in AP mode, you cannot
use http://www.routerlogin.net (or http://www.routerlogin.com) to log in to the
AP:
• Your computer or mobile device is not directly connected to the AP network even
it is on the same network as the AP.
• Your computer or mobile device is directly connected to the AP, but the AP is using
a static IP address.
Note: If the AP can reach its DNS server only over the Internet (for example, the IP
address of the DNS server is 8.8.8.8), you cannot use http://www.routerlogin.net.
However, if the DNS server is the IP address of the router to which the AP connects
but the router's Internet connection is down, you can use
http://www.routerlogin.net because the AP can still reach the router.
• Your network includes another NETGEAR device that is also accessible by using
http://www.routerlogin.net. In such a situation, if you use
http://www.routerlogin.net, you might log in to the AP or you might log in to the
other NETGEAR device, depending on your network situation.
In these situations, use the IP address that was assigned to the AP by your router during
the setup process (see Connect the AP to a routing device and log in for the first time
on page 26) to log in to the local browser UI of the AP.
