WN1000RP does not work2 - only yellow light
My WN1000RP extender has stopped working after I change a config in its application and apply. When I tried to access again, it just turns on the yellow light, does not go green and does not appear o...
I've tried resetting it several times and nothing happens. The yellow button is the middle button, status led. And it does not show up on wireless networks.
Here's what I'd try.
1. move it to a different outlet.
2. hold the reset for 30 seconds while plugged in
3. unplug while still holding reset, hold for 30 seconds
4. plug it back in, all while holding reset for another 30 seconds.
5. Let it boot. give it 1-2 minutes.
what are the leds doing?
I tried this and the yellow led did not even blink.
It stays always turned on and does not change ....
something might have gotten corrupted during the changes/resets. Looks like this model is quite a bit older so I doubt its within warranty (?) Plus it doesn't have an ethernet port to force new firmware to it via a tftp procedure.
It might be time to call it and upgrade/update. Sorry I wasn't more help.
