Managed to get in now, possibly due to a couple of changes in specific method in factory reset, the manual is not entirely clear!
For anyone else searching and not being able to get into the wap's admin menu try this:
1) Factory reset by turning it on, letting it completely boot up with only the power cable plugged in. Grab a cocktail stick or something else thin and hold down the reset button at the back for 30 seconds, the wireless light should go solid blue.
2) Set the PC to a static IP of 192.168.0.1 as per jmizoguchi's suggestion above, with subnet of 255.255.255.0
3) Go to 192.168.0.233 and it should all work
