NETGEAR WAC540 Access Point Firmware 9.2.0.6

New Features and Enhancements:

- Adds WPA3 authentication to the day-zero encryption menu.
- Insight Cloud Portal and Insight apps: Enhances the Insight event notifications to include the channel and MAC address of the radio that detected a radar event.
- Insight Cloud Portal and Insight apps: Adds ping and traceroute network testing features to the Insight Troubleshooting page.
- Insight Cloud Portal and Insight apps: Supports radio mode configuration for WiFi SSIDs in 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands at device and network levels.
- Insight Cloud Portal and Insight apps: Enhances the ability to enable or disable WiFi SSIDs in 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands at device and network levels.

When the mesh connection is established, the Neighbor AP table is updated if:

- The number of connected clients is less than 20.
- Data traffic on the radio is less than 3Mbps.
- There's no voice or video traffic.

Security Issues:

- Fixes security vulnerability issues.

Bug Fixes:

- Fixes VLAN ID info on the connected client list.
- Fixes an issue where iPhones weren't able to get an IP address when using WPA3-Enterprise authentication after an iOS 14.x upgrade.
- Fixes display of “configuration in progress” when managing with Insight.
- Supports VLAN IDs greater than 3 digits when client isolation is enabled on the Insight location.

Known Issues:

- Radio buttons are not visible during day zero configuration of the access point. The dashboard takes a longer time to load.
- Mac ACL feature does not work as expected when MAC Randomization is enabledfor the wireless clients. Workaround: Disable MAC Randomization on the clients.
- 802.11r based Fast Roaming fails for Samsung Galaxy S10 clients when connected to a WPA2-Enterprise SSID and Protected Management Frames (PMF) configuration is enabled. Workaround: Disable PMF configuration.
- Clients connecting to an SSID with both Client Isolation and URL Filtering enabled on a non-management VLAN cannot connect to the Internet. Workaround: Do not enable client isolation and URL filtering on the same SSID.
- Instant Captive Portal feature does not work for clients connected to a OWE SSID on a newly onboarded access point. Workaround: Re-apply Captive Portal configuration from Insight.
- Automatic changing Access Point mode between Root and Extender does not always work. Workaround: Use Insight to configure root or extender mode correctly.
- Issues in Insight Instant Mesh WiFi can cause the access point to operate on a non-optimum channel. Workaround: Configure the access point to use a static channel.
- Client connectivity and throughput-related interoperability issues can occur with certain Windows, Android and iOS client OS versions, or when WPA3/WPA2 mixed mode security is enabled on the SSID. Workaround: Upgrade to the latest available Windows/Android/iOS OS version, and update the WiFi client to the latest driver.
- Interoperability issues can occur with certain clients when Band Steering feature is enabled. Workaround: Disable this feature if client interoperability issues are observed.
- Some clients may not show the pop-up login screen when connected to the Instant Captive Portal SSID. Workaround: Launch a web browser and enter the URL for the captive portal authentication page into the browser's address field.
- Some special characters are not supported in Instant Captive Portal SSIDs. Workaround: We recommend against using special characters in the SSID name.
- While using the Facebook Wi-Fi feature, some iOS devices and Android devices might not display the Facebook Authentication page automatically. Workaround: The user can launch a web browser to display the Facebook Authentication page.
- After updating to a newer firmware version, the local browser interface may not show the latest changes. Workaround: Clear the web browser cache.
- WPA3 personal/WPA3 enterprise does not work with iPad mini. Workaround: Configure the security as WPA3 Personal Mixed (WPA3+WPA2) Security. 

About Access Point Firmware:

If you update the Access Point (AP) firmware, your device can benefit from changes that fix multiple issues encountered by wireless clients, correct different user interface problems, add various functionalities, and include support for newly developed protocols.

Before performing this task, we recommend that you read and understand all the installation steps, because there are many AP models and manufacturers available. Each producer strives to make the procedure as simple as possible, but there are cases when it's anything but that.

It is also advisable that you apply a new access point firmware in a steady power environment (UPS unit will satisfy this need), using an Ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection. The latter can be easily interrupted.

With this in mind, if you wish to apply this version, click the download button and install the package on your access point. Remember to check back with our website as often as possible so that you don't miss a single new release.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
