Problem with Lucent/proxim AP-1000 Access Ponit

heckpiet · 01-01-2005

Hi,

After updateing problems with my AP-1000.
i download the orginal FW from the Access Point and upload there firmware.
After this upload my AP "hangs". No more LAN connetion.

So now how fix this problem ?
Maybe with connecting via serial port ?

Have someone solution for my problem?

Greetings

Did you perform the upgrade over a wired or wireless connection?

i done the update with LAN (wired)
but it was the orginal fw which was orginal on the AP

Ah, them I'm afraid I can't help you. There must be some info somewhere about de-bricking one of these things, but, I don't know it. Sorry mate.

Do a hard reset. The new FW will show up after a few minutes. If it doesn't come back, do a factory reset, reload the FW, and then immediately following the upload, do I hard reset.

Unless you physically fry them, the ORiNOCO stuff doesn't usually turn into a brick via the FW uploads. They do get difficult sometimes. I went throught this several times with my son's RG-1000 and one AS-2000.

The hard reset is using the reset button. The factory reset is a combination of the reset button and a power cycle. Quite frankly, I forget the exact sequence. Check the manual.

The hard rest should retain any settings you have entered. The factory reset will wipe everything out.

Hi,

There is no factory reset in the Manual .-(
And no guide how to connect the AP on the serial port...

I am sure there is a reset button on it. I am pretty almost all APs and routers have them.

Say what? Google: ORiNOCO AP-1000 manual

Download the PDF from the first link. The Reset and the Reload buttons a clearly shown in several diagrams, and Appendix C has the whole Forced Reload procedure.
