After a new firmware installation, if the Power light is solid red, contact
system support; see
Incorrect IP Address
The most likely cause of connectivity failure is an incorrect IP address. The
Web browser may be pointing to the wrong IP address, or your computer
may be configured with an IP address that is not in the same subnet as the
device.
Because the factory default IP address configuration is DHCP, make sure
that your DHCP server is running and can be reached. You may need to
disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP
addresses from the DHCP server. You can then query the DHCP server for
the new IP address. See
Configuration for more information on how to find the DHCP address.
If the wireless access points do not receive a DHCP response (there is no
DHCP server on your network) after 60 seconds, the access points will
fallback to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a
default mask of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address, be sure that your
computer is on the 192.168.1.xxx network.
