A. Congure the AP with the NETGEAR Insight Cloud
Portal
1. Make sure that the AP is connected to the Internet.
2. On a computer or tablet, visit https://insight.netgear.com/.
3. Enter the email address and password for your NETGEAR account and click the
NETGEAR Sign In button.
If you do not already have a NETGEAR account, you can create an account now.
4. Only if you are an Insight Pro user, select the organization to which you want to add
the AP.
5. Select the location to which you want to add the AP.
6. Click the + (Add Device) button.
NOTE: If you are an Insight Pro user, you can either add a single device or you can
add multiple Insight managed devices by uploading a device list as a CSV le.
7. In the Add New Device pop-up page, enter the AP’s serial number, and then click
Go.
8. After Insight veries that the AP is a valid product, you can optionally change the
device name of the AP, and then click Next.
When the AP is successfully added to the portal, a page displays a conrmation
that setup is in progress.
NOTE: If the AP is online but Insight does not detect the AP, the rewall at the
physical location where the AP is located might prevent communication with the
Insight cloud. In that situation, add port and DNS entries for outbound access to
the rewall. For more information, see https://kb.netgear.com/000062467.
The AP automatically updates to the latest Insight rmware and Insight location
conguration. This might take up to 10 minutes, during which time the AP will
restart.
The AP is now an Insight managed device that is connected to the Insight cloud-
based management platform. If the Power/Cloud LED was solid green, it now lights
solid blue.
9. Use the Insight Cloud portal or Insight app to congure and manage the AP.
Insight remote management offers additional features and add-on services that are not
available in standalone mode. Your new Insight-manageable device comes with Insight
included. For more information, visit the following pages:
