Need help configuring Ruckus APs in pre-owned Village Builder home

[JacobKlutch]

Dear Community,

I am struggling with poor Wi-Fi network in my home. I recently bought it and it comes with 3 Ruckus APs and one ICX7150. I tried to skim through several blogs but couldn't get any solution.

Please help me configure it. 

Thanks a ton,

Jacob.

Hi Imran,

Thank you for responding to Jacob above. With regards to your recommendation:

Password recovery setup:

..in that video Ruckus doesn't explain *how* to access the User Interface (UI or Dashboard), just what to do *after* you're connected.

Do you connect your laptop to either the Type-C USB console port (#1 on Ruckus Port-side view) or the Rj-45 console port (#15)? If so, then what? 🤔 Are you in the UI at that point or do you need to do something else to access the UI (reboot? shut down first/connect cable/restart)? Thanks in advance.

Hope you are doing well.

You can log into the Unleashed system on a LAPTOP WEB BROWSER using the Master AP IP Address OR https://unleashed.ruckuswireless.com/ to access the Unleashed user interface.

We use Ports 1 and 15 to get Console access to the RUCKUS Switch for troubleshooting purposes.

Hello Imran,

looks I am running in to some issues. Here are the my steps :

• Removed two cables from the switch ( so only one remained)
• physically reset the switch.
• after 2nd attempt, I got the “configure-me—xxx” option.
• I followed all the steps in the app. It asked for creating a Wifi password and a admin password that I did ( in the Mobile app).
• Now it  is showing me as one of the options to connect to Wifi in the list of options.
• then I connected rest of the two cables for APs.

However, I am facing issues:

1. I am not able to access the portal for management. It keeps showing me same messages as attached. 

2. the other two APs are still showing amber for both 2G & 5G. 

3. somehow all three APs are also showing as connected in my AT&T “smart home manager” app. I am thinking, ideally that should not happen as the APs are connected through switch and not directly.

4. I also lost connection to one of my previously connected device (pool management app).

 Kindly advise.

Thanks,

Jacob
