That means that you must use the assigned IP address in all following situations:

Your mobile device is connected to one of the SSIDs on the access point but not to
the ”CONFIG-ONLY“ SSID.

Your wired computer is on the same network as the access point.

Your mobile device is

not

directly connected to the access point network even if it

is on the same network as the access point.

Your mobile device

is

connected to the ”CONFIG-ONLY“ SSID, but the access point

is set up with a static IP address.

Your network includes another NETGEAR device that is also accessible by using
https://www.aplogin.net. In such a situation, if you use https://www.aplogin.net,
you might log in to the access point or you might log in to the other NETGEAR device,
depending on your network situation.

If you do not know the IP address that was assigned to the access point, see Find the
IP address of the access point 
on page 33.

Find the IP address of the access point

If you do not know the IP address that was assigned to the access point, use

one

of the

following options to find the IP address of the access point:

Option 1: Use the automatic device detection of a Windows-based computer.

1. Launch File Explorer (or Windows Explorer).

2. Select Network from the Navigation pane.

3. Right-click the access point device icon, and select Properties.

The access point IP address displays.

Option 2: Temporarily connect directly over WiFi and log in. If you already
completed the initial log-in, temporarily connect a mobile device directly to the
access pointover WiFi and do the following:

1. Open a web browser from the mobile device that is directly connected to the

access point network.

2. Enter https://www.aplogin.net in the address field.

The Login page displays.

3. Enter your local device password and click the Login button.

The Device Status page displays.
In the LAN Information - IPv4 section, the IP Address field displays the IP address
that is assigned to the access point.
