Hi John,
Thanks for the suggestion, I have tried your suggestion, but i couldn't ping or access via browser the 192.168.0.160 address.

Please try to do a factory reset by pressing the reset button for 30 seconds, then turn it off. Continue to hold the reset button for another 30 seconds and turn it on while still holding the reset button for another 30 seconds then release.
Please let me know if that would work.
Regards,
John

As mentioned in my original post (30/30/30 reset method) I have already tried that and unfortunately it has stayed amber.
I didn't think factory reset to a standalone access point will be this difficult.
Regards
