Set Up the Access Point With a Non-PoE Network Connection
You can connect the access point to a switch in your network and let WiFi clients connect to the access
point and access your network and the Internet.The switch must be connected to a network router, which,
in turn, must be connected to the Internet, for example, through an Internet modem. If you use a regular
switch, that is, a non–Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch, the access point requires a power adapter, which
is an option that you can purchase.
Figure 5. Set up the access point with a connection to your network
To set up the access point with a non-PoE connection to your network:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the access point.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a switch that is connected to your network and to the
Internet.
3. Connect the power adapter to the access point and plug it into an electrical outlet.
The Power LED of the access point lights solid amber. After about one minute, if the access point is
connected to a DHCP server, the Power LED turns solid green and the access point is ready for you to
perform the initial configuration.
For information about accessing the access point for initial configuration, see Connect to the Access Point
for Initial Configuration on page 16.
Connect to the Access Point for Initial Configuration
After you set up the access point, you can use several methods to connect to it for initial configuration.
You can connect to the access point by using the NETGEAR Insight mobile app on an iOS or Android mobile
device, by accessing the Insight Cloud Portal, or by using the local browser interface.You cannot use Insight
access with the local browser interface.These types of access are mutually exclusive.
The Insight mobile app and the Insight Cloud Portal provide ease of access but do not let you configure all
features that are available on the access point.The local browser interface lets you configure all features
that are available on the access point.
