I ended up doing a full reset and setup of the main router. Some of the sats will connect but the AP router just blinks white.
- Rebooted at least 10 times
- Sync'd
- Factory reset button
Nothing will get it off that blinking white light. I believe trying to resolve the issues yesterday I got it out of AP mode and into bridge mode or it simply is just stuck as AP mode but with a conflicting IP.
Note: my phone shows a NETGEAR_SETUP as an open network. This was not there 2 days ago. I assumed I needed to connect to that so I could then edit the IP and/or settings for the AP router. It never connects, spins and finally says...IP address Failure. Again leads me to believe it has conflicting IP with the main router.
I need to find out how to fully factory reset this thing, then I should be able to hook it up, login, and make the changes i need to put it back as AP router. If I can't am I just stuck with a dead weight?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
