Discovery Results
The effectiveness of the discovery feature depends in part on how the access points on your 
LAN are set up. If each access point is configured with a unique IP address and is running 
current firmware, then discovery is usually simple. 
If the discovery results are not what you expect, check the following:
•     
Access points already managed by the Wireless Management Software will not be shown 
in the discovery list.
•     
If two or more access points still have their factory default settings, their IP addresses 
might be identical. If this is the case, the Wireless Management Software discovers one 
of these access points. Add that access point, change its IP address, and then use 
discovery to find the next access point.
•     
If discovery results show unknown access points, it could be due to these reasons:
-
The access point is running an older version of firmware. Upgrade firmware as 
needed so that discovery can locate the access point.
-
The Wireless Management Software located a NETGEAR access point that is not 
supported or located a NETGEAR device that is not an access point.
