WAX214 stops accepting management connections
I have three WAX214s installed at my premises, and two of them manifest a symptom whereby after a relatively short period of time, maybe 15-20 mins, they stop accepting connections for management. ...
Just installed mine and am hitting the same issue. I wrote an expect script to change the password daily on a guest SSID.
basically does this:
wax214>ssidp 4 apsecu 6 passp <passphrase>
wax214>ssidp 4 apsecu 6 accept
wax214>reboot
I left it using WPA2/WPA3 security, the rest of my manually configured SSIDs use WPA2 only. I lost my management connections via ssh and http. I was only able to get to the GUI via the config SSID.
When I saw your post, I spotted you used WPA2/WPA3 - I thought I'd set it to WPA2 via the config SSID gui and management started working again on the LAN.
Connecting to the management Web UI from clients associated wireless or does the same.issue exist on the world network?
