Change the admin user account password
This admin user account password is the password that you use to log in to the local
browser UI of the access point with the user name admin. (It is not the passphrase that
you use for WiFi access.)
The password must be 8 to 63 characters in length and must contain at least one
uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, and one number. The following special characters
are allowed:
! @ # $ % ^ & * ( )
To change the password for the user name admin:
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 44.
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 26.
The Dashboard page displays.
4. Select Management > Configuration > System > Advanced > User Accounts.
The page that displays lets you change the user accounts.
5. Next to admin, in the Password field, enter the new password.
6. In the Confirm Password field, enter the same new password.
