AC2000 802.11ac Wireless Access Point/Router WAC124 Quick tips This section describes tips for troubleshooting some common problems. Router mode: Sequence to restart your access point/router network If the access point/router is in router mode and you must restart your network, follow this sequence: 1. Turn off and unplug the Internet modem. 2. Turn off the access point/router. 3. Plug in the Internet modem and turn it on. Wait two minutes. 4. Turn on the access point/router and wait two minutes. Check the Ethernet cable connections Make sure that the Ethernet cables are connected correctly and securely plugged in: • If the access point/router is in access point mode (the default system mode), make sure that you connect the yellow Ethernet port on the access point/router through an Ethernet cable to a LAN port on the existing router in your network or to a switch or hub that is located between the access point/router and the router. • If the access point/router is in router mode, make sure that you connect the yellow Ethernet port on the access point/router through an Ethernet cable to a LAN port on your Internet modem. • For any computer or device that you connect directly through an Ethernet cable to the access point/router, make sure that you connect the Ethernet cable from the computer or device to one of the four LANs port on the access point/router. Check the WiFi settings of your computer or mobile device If you connect over WiFi to the access point/router, make sure that the WiFi settings on your computer or mobile device and the access point/router match exactly. The access point/router's default SSID is NETGEAR-1 and the default passphrase is sharedsecret. Note: If you set up an access control list on the access point/router, you must add each computer or mobile device to the access control list (see Enable and manage network access control on page 81).
