Insight Instant AirBridge WBC502 User Manual Manage the radio transmit power By default, the transmit power for the 5 GHz radio on the AirBridge is automatically assigned. You can disable automatic assignment and set a specific transmit power. However, note the following: • If you set the transmit power too high, the AirBridge might not be able to connect to another WiFi device such as a master or access point. • If you set the transmit power too low, WiFi clients might not be able to connect to the AirBridge. Make sure that you comply with the regulatory requirements for total radio frequency (RF) output power in your country. WARNING: Make sure that the country is set to the location where the device is operating (see Change the country and region of operation on page 58). You are responsible for complying with the local, regional, and national regulations that are set for channels, power levels, and frequency ranges. To manage the radio transmit power: 1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the AirBridge or directly to the AirBridge through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection. 2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AirBridge. The login page displays. If your browser does not display the login page but displays a security message and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the AirBridge after initial setup on page 34. 3. Enter the AirBridge user name and local device password. The user name is admin. The local device password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive. If you previously managed the AirBridge through the NETGEAR Insight app or Insight Cloud portal, enter the Insight network password for the Insight network location to which the AirBridge was assigned (see Connect over WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on an iOS or Android mobile device on page 15). The Device Status page displays the Device Information section and other sections. 4. Under Network, select Wireless. The Wireless Settings page displays.
