Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 Turn a radio on or off By default, both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios broadcast. Turning off a radio disables WiFi access for the associated band, which affects all WiFi networks (VAPs or SSIDs) in that band. Turning off a radio can be helpful during configuration, network tuning, or troubleshooting. To turn a radio on or off: 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 > Wireless > Basic > Wireless Settings.
