Hello dkaparis
Can you try connecting a computer wired to the access point and set a static IP on the computer with 192.168.0.55/24 and try accessing the UI of the access point by typing on address bar 192.168.0.100.
Note: If you have wireless capability on the computer, please turn it off for the meantime as you perform this.
Have a lovely day,
Erwin
