How can a user access an AP on its default settings?

Accessing an access point (AP) on its default settings typically involves connecting to it using its default IP address. In this case, the address 192.168.1.1 is a common default IP setting used by many devices, including network routers and access points. When a user connects their computer or mobile device to the AP's network (usually via Wi-Fi or Ethernet), they can open a web browser and enter the default IP address. This action will lead them to the login page where they can access the AP's settings and configurations.

This method is widely used because it provides a straightforward way for users to manage their network devices right out of the box, without needing special software or complex setups. Access via the default IP address is often part of the initial configuration process before any custom settings are applied.

Alternative methods, such as using a command line interface or mobile app, can also be used for configuration but are not the primary or universally applicable methods for accessing the AP in its default state. Additionally, while connecting via Wi-Fi is standard, it's not the exclusive method, as a wired connection (Ethernet) could also be utilized to access the device. Thus, using the default IP address is the most direct and traditional approach to accessing
