WiFi 6 AX1800 Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAX204 WARNING: To avoid the risk of corrupting the firmware, do not interrupt the reset. For example, if you are connected to the access point's local browser UI, 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. Use the local browser UI to return to factory defaults The local browser provides two reset options: • Reset to factory default settings but maintain the registration status. Return the access point to factory default settings only. After you do so, you must go through the initial log-in process again (see Set up the access point and complete the initial log-in process on page 17), but you do not need to register the access point with NETGEAR and can use your local device password to log in to the local browser UI. • Reset to factory default settings and reset the registration status. Return the access point to factory default settings and reset the NETGEAR registration status on the access point. This option can be useful if you want to register the access point under a different name or account. This option requires two steps: 1. Contact NETGEAR support at netgear.com/support so that the NETGEAR registration status on the NETGEAR server can be reset. 2. Return the access point to factory default settings and reset the registration on the access point. After you do so, you must go through the initial log-in process again (see Set up the access point and complete the initial log-in process on page 17), which is then automatically followed by the single sign-on (SSO) process, which lets you reregister the access point with NETGEAR. Note: If you reset the registration on the access point without contacting NETGEAR first, the access point is returned to factory default settings only, and the registration is not reset. CAUTION: The following process erases all settings that you configured in the access point. To erase the settings: 1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the access point network. 2. Enter http//www.routerlogin.net in the address field. If you are not connected to the access point network but to the same network as the access point, enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
