To manage the maximum number of clients for a radio:
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 39.
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 app or Insight Cloud portal, enter the
Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over
WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 22.
The Dashboard page displays.
4. Select Management > Configuration > Wireless > Advanced.
The Wireless Settings page displays.
5. In the Max.Wireless Clients field for the radio, enter the maximum number of WiFi
clients that can simultaneously associate with the radio.
The range is from 1 to 128 WiFi clients, and the default is 128.
6. Click the Apply button.
A warning pop-up window displays.
7. Click the OK button.
The pop-up window closes and your settings are saved. The radio or radios restart

a radio.
