Verifying the Operation of the Access Point
The Access Point runs a series of self-tests on power-up and reports status using its LEDs
(shown below). The diagnostics take several seconds to complete after power-up. Table 3-
1 describes the LEDs. If the AP LEDs indicate an error, verify that you have correctly
installed the AP. Table 3-2 describes the patterns, the most likely causes, and possible
corrective actions. If the AP still fails, refer to the RoamAbout 802.11 Wireless Networking
Guide.
The Reload/Reset button, shown below, is used to download a new firmware image to the
AP, and to reset the AP to the factory defaults. The toggle switch is reserved for future use.
You need to write down the MAC address (in the MAC ADD box) for use when
configuring the AP.
Once the AP is installed and powered on, refer to the RoamAbout 802.11 Wireless
Networking Guide to set the AP parameters.
