Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 When a device tries to associate with the WiFi network and negotiates an IP address, the access point converts the broadcast DHCP offer message that it receives from the DHCP server to a unicast message, and forwards it to the device. This is the default option (that is, the Enable radio button is selected). To disable this option so that the access point does not convert the broadcast DHCP offer messages to unicast messages, select the Disable radio button. 18. To configure a captive portal, a MAC ACL, and bandwidth rate limits, see the information in the following sections: • Set Up and Manage a Captive Portal on page 97 Captive portals and Multi PSK (see Step 9) are mutually incompatible. • Manage local MAC access control lists on page 116 and Select a MAC ACL for a WiFi network on page 206 • Set bandwidth rate limits for a WiFi network on page 208 Although you can also configure these features while you set up a WiFi network, these features are more complex and therefore described separately. 19. To configure advance rate selection, see Configure advanced rate selection for a WiFi network on page 209. 20. Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved. 21. Make sure that you can connect to the new WiFi network. If you cannot connect to the new WiFi network, check the following: • If your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device is already connected to another WiFi network in your area, disconnect it from that WiFi network and connect it to the correct WiFi network. Some WiFi devices automatically connect to the first open network without WiFi security that they discover. • If your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device is trying to connect to your network with its old settings (before you changed the settings), update the WiFi network selection in your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to match the current settings for your network. • Does your WiFi device display as a connected client? (See Display client distribution, connected clients, and client trends on page 187.) If it does, it is connected to the network. • Are you using the correct WiFi network name (SSID) and password? • If the WiFi authentication and encryption is set to WPA3 Personal, make sure that the WiFi adapter device driver is updated to the latest version on your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device.
