Setting Up New Lennar Home System

Hello experts,

I just moved into a Lennar home with a Ruckus ICX-7150-C12 switch, and three Ruckus R510 WAPs. I have tried following the phone app instructions from this video, and using my laptop and this video, but haven't been successful.

I have ran into several issues along the way (particularly with the phone app), but here's where I am right now:

Using the laptop setup instructions, I was able to connect to one of the Configure.Me-xxxxxx Wi-Fi networks.
Was able to go over the 5 steps from the setup wizard and create a WLAN.
Managed to get the "Congratulations ! Unleashed Master is now configured !" screen.
I noticed that after doing this, the power LED in all three WAPs went from blinking green to solid green, and the 2.4 G and 5 G LEDs are now one (orange). the ctrl LED in the primary WAP is also solid green.
However, after all this was done, the WLAN SSID I set up was never broadcasted, so I couldn't continue the process. I tried to manually connect to it (in case it was hidden), but that didn't work.

The thing is that, now the Configure.Me-xxxxxx Wi-Fi network has now disappeared, so I don't have anything to connect to to try to configure things again.

I have fiber internet thru AT&T, so I have an BGW320-505 ONT directly connected to the ICX-7150-C12. If I go to my AT&T network app, I can see the ICX7150-C12-Switch and three Ruckus-Unleashed devices (for the WAPs I presume), so I believe all components are online (not sure this helps with the issue, but I figured I would mention the rest of the setup).

I read in a few places to try to connect my laptop to the ICX7150-C12 directly using an ethernet cable to setup/check the network from there. I tried connecting to one of the PoE ports and access 192.168.0.1, but that didn't work.

Any suggestions on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated.

When I moved into my house, I wasn't able to set up using the Configure.Me-xxxxxxx. Check the inside of your network cabinet. In the inside of the door was a sticker. It listed a "WiFi Name" Lennar-xxxxxxxx followed by the password.

Try setting it up that way.

@matt_klouda would buying my own router be an easier route you think on eliminating the wifi on it? I don't want to rent hardware that I will never own. I have been looking into a new router that can pair with my cox stuff.

If you have a fiber connection in your closet to the Nokia device, there is no reason that won't work on the ICX. You just need an SFP for the ICX. No harm in trying it, just make sure the ICX gets a 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x IP address.

@matt_klouda any recommendations for a good router that won't break the bank. I game, stream shows/movies.

Do you have a fiber connection to the Nokia you're talking about? If so, the ICX is great.

@matt_klouda so with my ICX-7150-C08P I should be able to go from the Nokia fiber modem straight into the ICX and use my internet via the 2 WAPs I have?
