“Overload” Indications

1. Verify that you are not using a cross-over cable between the AE
output port and the AP.
2. Verify that there is no short over any of the twisted pair cables.
3. Move the device into a different output port – if it works, there is
probably a faulty port or bad RJ-45 connection.
Recovery Procedures
The most common installation problems relate to IP addressing. For
example, without the TFTP server IP Address, you will not be able to
download a new AP Image to the AP. IP Address management is
fundamental. It is recommended that you create a chart to document and
validate the IP addresses for your system.
If the password is lost or forgotten, you will need to reset the AP to default
values. The Reset to Factory Default Procedure resets configuration
settings, but does not change the current AP Image.
If the AP has a corrupted software image, follow the Forced Reload
Procedure to erase the current AP Image and download a new image.
