    Posted May 24, 2014 01:44 PM

    Hi,

     

    I have problems with an AP-105 which constantly reboots. Anyone has any tips what to do?

    See the console output below:

    You should open up a case with TAC so that they can analyze that crash and see if it has been addressed in a future version of ArubaOS code.

    I just got it running:

    But then after a few minutes it started rebooting again:

     I think there seems to be something wrong with the Mini PCI Wifi Card?

    Contact support and they will let you know for sure.

    Of course this would be the best way, but I suppose there is no support coverage for this AP as I bought it for my test-lab.

    Anyway, it's worth a try.

    APs 3 is fairly old. If you have access to the support site you might want to get your controller on the latest GA release it supports.

    It's already on AOS 6.3.1.6.

    oNek,

     

    Looking at 

     

    ar7100 data bus error: cause 0x5080c01c

    historically does indicate that this is a hardware fault and would typically be RMAed.

    Hi Colin,

     

    you are right :)

    It's a hardware failure and the RMA is currently beeing processed thanks Aruba’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.
