Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 Disable the DHCP client and specify a fixed IP address By default, the DHCP client of the access point is enabled and the access point receives an IP address from a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a DHCP server) in your network. If your network does not include a DHCP server or you prefer to specify a fixed (static) IP address, disable the DHCP client of the access point. To disable the DHCP client and specify a fixed IP address: 1. Launch 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 displays. If your browser displays a security warning, you can proceed, or add an exception for the security warning. For more information, see What to do if you get a browser security warning on page 43. 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 Cloud Portal or Insight app, enter the Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 25. The Dashboard page displays. 4. Select Management > Configuration > IP > LAN. The page that displays lets you specify the LAN settings, but the fields are masked because the DHCP client is enabled. Manage the Local Area Network 134 and IP Settings User Manual
