Netgear R7000 - loaded R52656, factory default settings.
Changed IP to 192.168.3.1, set router name, added a 2.4GHx VAP, no password. Applied.
Can not connect to VAP from laptop and from cell. The message is "Can not connect to ssid-vap".
Tried adding a 5GHz vap - same issue.

I had the same experience with R52596.
