WNAP 320 kernel panic firmware

Hi,

I have a wnap320 that in an update (I supose). the firmware has been damaged.
I can not connect via ethernet in any way.
Neither managed by the concentrator or isolated. I have reset it a thousand times and never take any ip.

 

Connected by serial cable. I can access the terminal where appears the start of the antenna that ends with:
kernel panic - not syncring.....

Having no IP assigned (there is no 192.168.1.100, nor any other)

I have been uploading the firmware via telnet
with loadb command

the firmware
WNAP320_V2.1.1_firmware.tar
and others more updated with the same problem:
After three hours uploading the firmware and restarting the antenna.
the panic kernel reappears.

Help

Hello,

 

I solved this trouble with a doc made by  RaghuHR  ‎2019-02-11 05:21 PM

WNAP320 - Recovery Document.pdf

 

Many thanks.

 

But i need to do some more thinks.

Once the antenna firmware was recovered, I had to do a downgrade to 2.15 to be able to add it to the concentrator. And, "voila" the concentrator WC7520 has been able to add the antenna to the system

Hi @lluisrd,

 

Welcome to the community! 🙂 

 

What is the behavior of the LED lights of the WNAP320?  

 

I have sent a private message to you. I'll wait for your response via private message.
