Insight Managed WiFi 6 AX1800 Dual Band Access Point WAX610 User Manual
Enable neighbor access point detection and move access
points to the Known AP List
The access point can detect neighbor access points (APs) and lets you classify them as
known APs. After you enable neighbor AP detection, the access point maintains a list
of access points it detects in the area. Initially all detected access points are displayed
in the Unknown AP List. You can manually move access points from the Unknown AP
List to the Known AP List.
By default neighbor access point detection is disabled.
To enable neighbor access point detection and move detected access points to
the Known AP List:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
If your browser does not open the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 37.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
If you previously added the access point to a NETGEAR Insight network location and
managed the access point through the Insight app or Insight Cloud portal, enter the
Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over
WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 22.
The Dashboard page displays.
4. Select Management > Configuration > Security > Neighbor AP.
The page that displays lets you select the radio band (2.4GHz or 5GHz).
5. Click the > button to the left of the radio band.
The Neighbor AP page displays for the selected radio band.
6. Select the Enable Neighbor AP check box.
