Time2Jet Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 I was trying to factory reset 4 WAP's (Pakedge WX-1) and I couldn't get it to reset the ip to the default 192.168.1.250. I tried so many different things that I lost my place and now I am able to scan with fing and find the mac, but there's no IP. Any ideas? Couple of things I tried and this may be where I screwed up. I had these dhcp reserved, so when I couldn't get it to default back to .250, I thought maybe the router was holding that reservation for the mac (even after I deleted it months ago). So I recreated the reservation and then deleted it again. Now (and not everytime) Fing picks up the mac, but has a blank ip. I even thought maybe the lease was holding it, so I changed the general dhcp lease from 12h to 2m and waited. No luck. Quote
lippavisual Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 IP conflict? If you have a spare router or switch, set them up separately. Set your PC to a static address and try to connect that way. Quote
mstafford388 Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Pakedge also has where's my wap software which would populate 2 waps even if they are on the same IP address. Quote

Boy do I know it. I don't have access, but it would have made my life easier, that's for sure. Is this something I can get a link to? Quote

Tried last night. When our techs get back this afternoon, they are all Pakedge certified. I can get it I'm sure. I was just trying to take care of this to ship them out today... Quote
