WAX620PA 10.5.0.14 firmware update weakens 2.4Ghz network?
I installed firmware 10.5.0.14 on two WAX620PA's this weekend, and I immediately saw a reduction in network broadcast strength on the 2.4Ghz band. A printer that was previously connected was suddenly...
I don't suppose there's a way to roll back the firmware, is there? I haven't seen one but perhaps it's buried somewhere in the menus that I'm not seeing...
Hi,
I have the same issue. Since firmware 10.5.0.14, i have IP cameras (in 2.4 only) that freeze or get disconnected by AP (802.11 deauthentication with code 34)
The option to load the backup firmware is not available in cloud mode.
The procedure I applied to be able to perform a rollback on two WAX360 managed in the Insight cloud :
(be careful to have wired access to each AP and local admin/password of each AP. -only perform this procedure if you know what you are doing-)
- Go to Web UI of an AP and log in.
- Switch Managed Mode "NetGear insight (cloud)" > "Web Browser (local)"
- Wait for AP reboot
- Go to Web UI and log in
- Go to Maintenance > Upgrade > Firmware upgrade
- Now you have the "Boot Up Backup Firmware" button ! (hidden in cloud mode)
- Wait for AP reboot
- Go to Web UI and log in with default access (admin / password) and re-set your password.
- Re-Switch Managed Mode "Web Browser (local)" > "NetGear Insight (cloud)"
- Wait for AP reboot
- Wait for the reconfiguration of the AP by Insight
- Enjoy.
