IAP 205 issue

[Ovais]

Hi All,

I am having strange issue with IAP 205H. Someone please give me some defintive answer.

Previously i configured 205H with a DHCP server, i was able to access the instant webpage and configured a new SSID Employee (for testing purpose). I turned it off

Today i turned it on

1. i dont see any SSID Employee or Instant
2. The led status is Amber
3. After sometime (usually 10 minutes or so), the status changes to blinking green (restarting ??) and then to Amber and cycle continues

Is there a problem with 205H in general ? is there a bug ?

After i configure the new SSID, and restart it, will it not retain the configuration ?

Did you re-IP the IAP as well?

[Ovais]

No, i didnt gave the IP manually, is that the cause the configuration was not saved ?

[Jamie E]

I think you will need to set the virtual controller address first.

[Ovais]

But why its restarting again n again ?

[Ovais]

is it a bug or just how IAP works ? 

[Jamie E]

Have you had a chance to console into the IAP to see what exactly is going on?

[Ovais]

Nope, dont have the console cable :(

The console cable is quite different :(

But still i am not getting answer to whether this is a required behaviour from 205H ? seems faulty and buggy to me !!

Hi all, 

I tried factory resetting it, this is what i did

1. turned off the AP
2. press the reset button
3. turned on the AP
4. it started flashing, 
5. released the reset button
6. same process as previous, i dont see any instant SSID !!!!

What is the problem ???
