wax630 web interface white screen

I purchased the WAX630 for home use (yes overkill).  I changed my access point setting for client isolation and saved changes.  The web interface hung and now the login screen is just a white screen.  I did a factory reset and reconfigured the access point and on reboot, white screen again.  I think the configuration may have gotten corrupt.  It has the latest firmware as of 12/20/2024 and it's only 2 years old.

 

How do I fix this, or is this now a brick?

 

Thanks for any help!

 

  • I've done a factory reset numerous times.  And would run through the setup.

     

    This time I changed the SSID, IP, etc. to all new names and range instead of what it was previously and it's working now.  The other difference was it was shutdown for the night, not sure if this makes any difference or not (shouldn't)?  But at least it's working.

     

    Thanks for your reply. 🙂
