Slow or no Connection from the AP's. Also Unleashed app does not show a switch available.

jmatos14 — Wed, 04 Jan 2023 03:07:52 GMT

Hello. Currently in a Lennar home that I moved in 2 years ago. For a while I've had slow or no connection from the AP's. Also Unleashed app does not show a switch available. I've tried to follow the instructions on other posts but have not been able to solve the issue. Probably because I'm not tech savvy. Is there any way that I can get technical support to direct me or troubleshoot the problem with my system? I have to connect all my Wi-fi devices to the Internet service provider router to be able to use them. But since I have a 2 story house, it does not reach all of the house. The Rockus system was working well until 6 months ago that the issue started. Thanks.

Hi @jmatos14

Based on your description, it looks like your Switch (ICX7150 Switch) may be booting from the wrong partition, let me add the guide to fix the issue, there are two ways, via Web guide or via CLI, please check both options, and use the one is easier for you.

Note: if you have access to the Unleashed Dashboard and the Switch can be seen from there, it may look like the following image, ICX7150-C12-Router instead of ICX7150-C12-Switch, now before starting the steps of the guide, I will advise you to cable the computer directly to the Switch, since you will have a better connectivity than if you connect via wireless.

Note: after fixing the issue of the Switch booting from the wrong partition, please perform an upgrade to the code 08095g UFI and upgrade both partitions primary and secondary with the switching code file named SPS08095gufi.bin, take into consideration that is the Switch is running a code lower than 08080 you need to upgrade twice, from the code you are to 08080f and then the recommended code 08095g UFI.

Hello Yaneris,

The Switch does not appear on the Unleashed app. Does that needs to be fixed first? How?

In reference to the switch. I have not been able to locate the IP address! I have no wifi if the ruckus doesn't work and therefore no IP address. IP scanners aren't picking it up. I need help! I do not see a switch on the app but it is showing 2 WLANs and the AP. The AP is showing "no clients" and the WLANs are showing no clients. I don't know what else to do. I don't know who to contact. How do I move forward from here? who can I reach out to? My entire home runs on internet and I have no network without this ruckus. Please help.

Hi @jmatos14

Hope you are doing well !

What needs to be fixed first is the issue mentioned by my coworker (routing code issue) that this issue is going to lead to multiple connectivity issues like web pages loading slow / drooping connectivity , the switch showing as connected or disconnected in the app or unleashed dashboard not affects red performance.

An identifier of this problem is that it comes out as Switch-Router in the unleashed dashboard.

There we are going to see 2 important things the

MAC address: Physical address of the device this never changes

An IP address is a unique address (logical) that identifies a device on the internet or a local network like your home (this can change and may not be the same as the one shown on the dashboard)

1- To fix this issue, we must identify the ‘currently’ IP address assigned by your local router to the switch

-We can try the IP address that shows in the dashboard copy and paste it in the URL if that redirects you to the login page for the ICX-7150-C12P that is the correct one if not.

I will leave you a guide how to perform an IP scanner on your local network to identify the switch IP address very easily.

2-Once we identified the IP address of the switch proceed to access remote to the device 'command Line'

How to remotely access to 'ICX 7150-12P' or 'access points' "Network devices"

https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/RUCKUS-Support-for-Lennar-Homes/How-to-remotely-access-to-ICX-7150-12P-or-access-points-quot/td-p/47388

If you can access to the Command line should look like this:

ICX7150-C12 Router>

3-Here is a quick guide to understand how to fix the 'routing code issue' but basically you need only need to run the following commands once you are on the command line 'CLI'

Note: Hit Enter to accept each command

enable

copy flash flash secondary

boot system flash secondary yes

example:

ICX7150-24P Router>enable (hit enter to accept the command)
ICX7150-24P Router#copy flash flash secondary (hit enter to accept the command and wait: until the flash finished )
ICX7150-24P Router#boot system flash secondary yes ( hit enter to accept the command : the switch will reboot )

4-If the access via IP address is not possible here is a guide how to access to the Switch via console (cable access between your PC to the ICX 7150-C12P) in this case we need a USB type C to USB standard or Console cable Rj45 to USB.

Once you are log in the ICX-7150-C12P please follow up the same steps that are on point '3'

Hi @Ekt83

Please try to create a New WLAN and see if you are able to connect it
