WAC540 Mesh setup is in progress for over an hour 1 AP
This AP is starting to make me want to start drinking again. Client changed their mind on how it was to be deployed. Okay no problem. I did a cloud reset on it and it kept all it settings. Deleted it...

Hi warsawtech,
What is the current status of your access point?... has it come online in Insight?
Which old settings are being re-populated?
If you mean SSID & Passphrase then this is normal behaviour as they are set per location and any AP added to the location will use those settings, even if the AP is removed, reset and re-added. If wireless settings should change due to customer request, change them in wireless settings of the lcoation and those setting will be pushed to the ap's.
Thanks

The WAC config will be deployed from the Insight cloud based on the Insight wireless config, the wired (VLAN) config, ... reset (local or on Insight) wont change much. Removing and re-adding the device from Insight might be an idea to re-start. Beyond, I'm afraid, zero experience with the Insight Mesh and how this is configured on Insight.
