Unable to authenticate after some time on WAC120 (wrong password on WPA2 ) with firmware 2.1.5
I have two WAC120 devices. Since the fix on the security vulnerability with WPA2 (firmware 2.1.5) and the updates on our Android and iOS devices I can only use my access points during a few hours/days. Unless I reboot them constantly, they refuse to authenticate on the WIFI (5Ghz NG WPA2) with as error message "wrong password" although the password is perfectly correct. Both of my devices have exactly the same issue ( one bought in August 2015, another one in May 2016 ). With the previous release 2.1.4 my devices were finally running reasonably stable but now they have become totally unusable. Does anybody have the same issue? Does someone has a solution for this issue? Thanks for posting your suggestions. Kind regards, Mr. P. BrouckeSolved5.3KViews0likes13Comments- 3.4KViews0likes2Comments
WAC120 WiFi turning off...
My first time working with the WAC120, and I have an odd problem. I purchased 17 of these units for two hotels. All 17 units configured identically (two different networks, of course). 12 of the units function perfectly, but 5 of them are turning off WiFi after about 90 seconds. I've double (and triple) checked all settings in all units, tried turning them off and on, tried pulling the plug for a minute, same thing. Scheduling is disabled, and I'm at a loss. When turned on, the units work perfectly for approximately 90 seconds, then the WiFi light goes out and of course no more connection. I've seen a couple similar issues searching the forums, but no solution to this particular problem. Just wondered if anyone might have any ideas. I haven't checked logs yet, that's tomorrow's first job, but hoped I might get some ideas before then. Thanks...Solved4.4KViews0likes4Comments
