    Hi there! I have this problem:

    when the controller is disconnected from the network, the access point will not work. I knew that the AP continue to operate at controller unplugged. Do you have any idea?

    Most of the AP's only work when the controller is up. If the controller is down then the AP will keep rebooting to try to reesablish a connection to the controller.  If you want AP's to work without a dedicated controller then one option I know about is using the IAP's which don't require a dedicated controller.

    Thanks for reply. I have AP93, not IAP93. That is the problem? The supplier had assured me that AP93 worked independently of the controller.

    Yes, the IAP works independently of the controller.
