Review on πŸ“Ά NETGEAR ProSAFE WAC720-100NAS: High-performance 2x2 Dual Band 802.11ac PoE Wireless Access Point by Scott Gafur

Revainrating 5 out of 5

1 of 6 Cannot DOA, register or contact support

Bought two of these systems (6 access points) for use in an integrated mode in our office and in production. Ensemble mode didn't work until I updated the firmware on all APs. Once updated and added to the original ensemble, they set themselves up almost automatically. Unfortunately 1 AP was DOA and connecting the console cable showed a poor picture with no option to transfer via Flash or TFTP. 6 Access points via the internal access point registration pop-up or on the Netgear website do not work. If you try to contact technical support, you will only be sent in circles, since a registered device is required. 2 stars for the crappy registration process and inability to contact support. Your clients don't disconnect regularly. I will update after registration and receipt of a replacement for DOA as well as further ongoing testing.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Long wait
