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.

Shoot, I mis-read your model number. No. the 8 port only supports switch code at this time, but let me ask a few folks internally if that plans to change. You'll need to run router code to be able to make this work. Let me find out what I can for you.

@matt_klouda I don't mind buying something, I just don't want to rent from my ISP.

Take a picture and post it here of what's connected to your Cox modem now. Then I think I can get you a good solution.

@matt_klouda Matt, is the ICX-7150-C12P capable of functioning as an Internet gateway?  Does it do NAT?  Does it support DHCP server? Nobody is training the people who set these up how to use the ICX-7150-C12P as an Internet gateway, just as an L2 switch and PSE.

BTW - that looks like the C12P in the picture.
