Pakedge NK-1 firmware update lockouts

[Clifflines]

I purchased a new controller on eBay and had no real issues setting up the network with the default login and password. The system notified me that both my APS and the controller requireD firmware updates. The APs updated fine but once the controller update began the a login screen popped up that would not accept either the default login or my locally generated login and password. The system would also not reset. My box is now a brick. Out out frustration I purchased a second used controller and this time did not change the default login and ended up with the same result. I now own two bricks. Help!! I can’t believe no one performs firmware updates, what am I doing wrong?

Hello, 

As of the new update the NK 1 becomes an ovrc hub. And you manage the access points via ovrc 

try

username: ovrc password: ovrc to login 

Thanks

Thanks so much, big help. I’m in but now with the new ovrc interface I see no reference to access point management at all. You say it’s a hub? Is there maybe an online manual? It was so much easier before the update.

All the config is done via OVrC now.

I have a Pakedge network and have been using the same tools for about 3 years.   I updated the NK-1 firmware and have looked at the OvrC web-based management.  As @Clifflines reported, support for AP management  (Pakedge Zones, updating WK-1 AP's, etc) is not obvious.  Can you provide links to documentation for AP management?

where can I download the newer V2.0 firmware, I have an NK-1 with old v1 firmware which has no use as it cannot even detect my 4200 WAPS
