WNDAP350 Firmware Recovery Procedure?
I have a failed firmware upgrade on my WNDAP350, and now while it will boot with all green lights on the front panel (except the 10/100/1000 light which is amber) However it will not respond to its I...
Todd, When you updated your firmware the unit defaults to its initial settings. To access the unit do the following:
Configure your network adapter to an ip of 192.168.0.210 mask 255.255.255.0
Now plug the network adapter of that computer directly into the rj45 connector of the WNDAP350, boot the pc and powercycle the AP.
Now once your pc is up and running open an internet explorer session, enter:
http://192.168.0.237
Your AP should appear and you can use the default login and password to access the unit. More than likely you will need to rebuild all your settings. For some reason the backup files get extra characters in them (probably because they are stored in dos and the ap is unix) an cannot be re-applied.
Reset your ip information as needed as well as any other options you changed when you originally configured the AP.
That should do it!
