WAX210 Management UI Rejects Password
I am a new user of a WAX210 access point. It is ethernet connected to my switch. It provides wifi connectivity to my devices just fine. What it does not do is allow me access to the management UI ...
A couple of questions that might narrow this down:
- When you finish the first-time setup wizard, does it actually land on the Device Status page, or does it bounce straight back to the login screen?
- Have you tried logging in from a private/incognito window? Safari and Firefox can autofill a saved password for that IP, which can silently replace what you type.
If the login still fails in a private window right after a fresh factory reset and setup, that points more toward the firmware than a typing issue, so updating from 1.1.0.31 to the current release would be the next thing to try.
