Insight Managed WiFi 6 AX3000 Access Point Model WAX615
Note: If you add the access point to a NETGEAR Insight network location and manage
the access point through the Insight app or Insight Cloud portal, the admin password
for the access point changes. That is, the Insight network password for that location
replaces the admin password. To access the local browser UI, you must then enter the
Insight network password and not the admin password. If you later decide to remove
the access point from the Insight network location or change the management mode
to Web-browser mode (see Change the management mode to NETGEAR Insight or
Web-browser on page 136), you must continue to use the Insight network password to
access the local browser UI until you manually change the admin password on the access
point.
