If the AP is not communicating, check the three LED indicators on the top
panel. The unit status can be checked quickly. Figure
shows the
indicators for the AP350, AP1100, AP1200, and BR350. The indicator signal
meanings for the 1100 and 1200 are shown in Figure
.
The Ethernet indicator signals traffic on the wired LAN, or Ethernet
infrastructure. This indicator is normally green when an Ethernet cable is
connected, and blinks green when a packet is received or transmitted over the
Ethernet infrastructure. The indicator is off when the Ethernet cable is not
connected.
The status indicator signals operational status. Steady green
indicates that the access point is associated with at least one wireless
client. Blinking green indicates that the access point is operating normally
but is not associated with any wireless devices.
The radio indicator
blinks green to indicate radio traffic activity. The light is normally off, but
it blinks green whenever a packet is received or transmitted over the radio of
the access point.
Using the MODE Button on 1100 and 1200 models, follow
the steps in Figure
to delete the
current configuration and return all AP settings to the factory defaults using
the MODE button. The access point is configured with the factory default
values, including the IP address, and is set to receive an IP address using
DHCP.
The client adapter
shows messages
and error conditions through its two LEDs
,
:
-
Link Integrity/Power LED (green) – This LED lights when the client
adapter is receiving power and blinks slowly when the adapter is linked with
the network.
-
Link Activity LED (amber) – This LED blinks quickly when the client
adapter is receiving or transmitting data and blinks in a repeating pattern to
indicate an error condition.
