Accessing Interface WAC104
Hi i just got an new WAC104 access point, and i cannot by any means i know access it's interface. The proposed guide in the box does not work. Using my knowledge of manual setup i used on previous ro...
Like i said. I did all that to access the web interface using a mobile machine connected via wifi also. Also tried everything on local lan side. If you read carefully i said i followed the whole instructions as described.
So please provide some basic insights like screenshots of the wireless client associated to that WAC104 access point from both the client as well as from the AP side and from the router and network (LAN) view.
One part of the RTFM is this crucial "http://www.aplogin.net" and "http://www.aplogin.com" access.
A result of a ping or nslookup (for example) would be brilliant.
Yes, I could imagine customers are operating interesting router or network config with proxies, crazy Internet "security" software, or other i-know-better designs like allowing some encrypted DNS only.
Using advanced network monitoring software, the AP would not show up. Populated IP for it would not show up. Since factory enable DHCP is on this model, the only way would be via aplogin so physical is useless. Now even simple "arp -a" command successfully displays the registered AP, the issue is from the access point firmware itself then "it may need several hard resets". In my case this frustrated 3rd reset did it thank fully. Thanks for taking the time to try and help. Now i can even log using local ip address assigned to it without the need for mobile phone, so i am happy.
