The pop-up window closes and the configuration is uploaded to the access point.
When the restoration is complete, the access point reboots. This process takes about
two minutes.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of corrupting the firmware, do not interrupt the
restoration. For example, do not close the browser, click a link, or load a new page.
Do not turn off the access point. Wait until the access point finishes restarting and
the Power LED turns solid green.
Reboot the access point from the local
browser interface
If you cannot physically access the access point to reboot it (that is, disconnect the power
and reconnect the power), you can use the local browser interface to reboot the access
point.
To reboot the access point:
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 41.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The 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 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 an iOS or Android mobile device on page
26).
