R7800 reboots in AP mode
For a long time my R7800 was working fine in normal mode. Recently I got a firewalla and then put R7800 in AP mode . if I do that, the system stays on only for a few minutes and then reboots....
It might be worth taking a few minutes to "start over". i.e.
- Perform a Factory Reset on the R7800. as described on page 171 of the User Manual:
- Connect the R7800 WAN port to the Firewalla and observe:
o The IP address assigned to the R7800 by the Firewalla
o How the Firewalla describes the R7800 in its connection tables - Then, go into the R7800 Advanced Settings and change the R7800 from 'router' mode to AP mode.
- Again, observe how the Firewalla describes the R7800
