R150 AP stuck in boot mode

InlineSix24 — Sun, 18 Aug 2024 21:39:16 GMT

POE Ethernet port light is green. PWR light on the front panel stays red after power cycling. Unleashed app shows the AP as offline. I have unplugged the POE and plugged it back in with no change. I have also tried holding the reset button for 45 seconds using a paper clip - PWR light continued to persist as red. I removed the AP and tried a different direct POE Ethernet cable with no success.

Hi @InlineSix24

Greetings!!!

Thank you for reaching out to the RUCKUS Lennar Home Community.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve the issues you are experiencing with your RUCKUS setup.

Based on the information provided, it appears that you are encountering an issue with the RUCKUS Access Point with Red PWR LED.

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and are committed to assisting you promptly.

Could you please try connecting the affected Access Point to an external power 12 VDC adapter and check it separately without connecting to the Switch PoE port cable? (Please refer to the below screenshot). Usually, you will find the 12 VDC adapter connected to your ISP’s (Internet Service Provider’s) Router/Modem-Router combo device.

Once you connect to an external power adapter, please try to factory reset as described in the below guide.

Thank you again for your patience and understanding.

Thanks Imran-

Powering and resetting the AP with the power adapter does not cause a successful reboot and the solid red LED is persistent.

I have uploaded the images and video now to a subfolder. The affected unit is the secondary AP. I have also included the current unleased status showing the functioning master AP.

Hi @InlineSix24

Greetings!!!

Thank you for the response and the information.

Based on the troubleshooting done, and you confirm after performing the reset of the Access Point, and checking all the connectivity and connections, the failure persists. And this is the only ONE access point that isn’t working with No Power on it even after checking with an external power adapter it behaves the same. This ONE Access Point Unit Should be RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) in simple words replacing it.

Feel free to contact us via chat, comment you already have a post, copy the link from the post (URL), and paste it into the chat to start the unit replacement.

Please follow the steps as shown in the below example:
