Hello,

My power went out and since then the internet is spotty and all the smart devices in the home don't work properly. I think I figured out that I have the know partition issue, however while following the guide from  https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/RUCKUS-Support-for-Lennar-Homes/How-to-Fix-Routing-code-issu...  I am unable to get past step 2. I have found the IP address for the ICX switch but when I put it in a browser it times out and doesn't load. Any ideas?

HI @Qumulox 

 If you found your IP address maybe we can try another method to access to the switch ( via SSH / telnet / console ) . 

We have 2 ways to access to the Switch 1-Via IP 2-Console access using the correct cable 

1- In a logical way via Ip address (IPs are logical addresses given by the local router) so we would have to track which IP is that of the Switch (that is using).

This guide show you how to track the IP address of the Switch

2-This guide show you how to access remotely to your switch

3-Here are the steps how to fix the ‘routing code’ step by step (2 guides)

 While you are typing the username and password you are not going to see the characters typing

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

ICX7150-C12 Router>

In simple words write the following commands and 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-The other method to access to the switch is via console (cable access) in this case we need a USB type C to USB standard or Console cable Rj45 to USB. 

Here is the guide on how to access through the console and pre-install the necessary software

Thank you for the information and reply. My system is now fixed and I have no idea why or how. I moved my PC into the closet and connected it to the Ruckus via ethernet (it was wireless before this). While trying to regain access to the IP address I noticed the smart devices in the house were working. I did nothing else and poof, it worked. 

Hi @Qumulox 

Great !!!

Hello,

So my system randomly broke again. I have found a way to access the Login for the ICX switch, however the given password names and list do not work. Are there any other combinations that Lennar installers used?
