Dear Zyxel Team,
I use an NWA 1123-AC-Pro with firmware version V6.28(0)/V2.4.
The AP is configured as standalone:
Fixed IP address, subnet…

I'm trying to establish a wireless connection via this AP. I use an iPhone for testing purposes.
I select the SSID of the AP on the iPhone and the iPhone asks for the network key. I then enter this and a connection tick appears in front of the SSID. But the iPhone's WiFi display doesn't show a connection! I'm not connected to the AP. If I look at the IP address that the iPhone received, it is an IP address outside of my network.

If I enter the correct IP address, subnet... manually on my iPhone, the connection to the AP is established and the iPhone can also connect to the Internet.

Which settings do I need to change in the NWA?

Thanks for your support

    Hi @Peter_B,

    NWA1123AC-PRO only supports bridge mode, it doesn't support NAT mode, so you need a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to your clients in your network. Therefore, you don't need to change in NWA1123AC-PRO, but you need to change your gateway/router if it supports the DHCP server function.
