not as well as expected

Where?s the user name?

Setup via web page setup. Don?t see any reference to username in setup. Setup was easy. Works great. Can?t log in since I don?t know what the user name is to log into the web page interface!

Netgear Access Point and Insight

Was having wifi connectivity and with the purchase of the Netgear WAC505 all wifi connectivity issues were resolved as soon as the access point was installed. Wish I knew of this device years ago. Also, love the ability to see how my network is performing and what is connected to it via the Netgear Insight App.

Working with excellent speed.

All the installation went very easy but I still need Tech Support phone number for some questions regarding access to my Netgear with the computer, not only with the iphone Insight Netgear program.

Awesome and easy

I setup a network using the insight gear at my church and it was so simple to use that now I just installed it at home. The insight app with the pro subscription makes things so easy I think just about anyone could setup a network that runs well.

Excellent AP - Couldn't be happier

My main AP is a WAC540 and I need to extend wifi coverage to the garage. So I decided to get a wAC505 and use WDS to extend the wifi network into the garage. The backhaul is 5GHz and I am getting 178Mbps Internet speed on both the WAC540 (wired and the WAC505 (wireless bridged). I am very pleased with this setup. Performance is outstanding.

Quick but frustrating setup

Very easy to setup - it was pretty much plug n play. We bought a pack of three wireless access points to provide customer WiFi throughout our venue using Facebook WiFi. Very frustrating that the instructions in the box point you to setup through the app, but the app requires a subscription to setup features such as Facebook WiFI (which are free when setup locally!) What a waste of time.

Great Cloud Managed AP

This AP can be easily setup and managed from your phone with the Netgear Insight app. Firmware updates are painless, the speed and range are great as well.

Seamless installation and configuration

Installed 3 WAC505 APs for a client last week. Insight app made installation and configuration quick and painless. Ability to monitor and make changes via the app is priceless. Definitely going to recommend NETGEAR Insight Smart Cloud to all my clients.
