- Back up the configuration file
- Upgrade the firmware
- Reset the device to factory defaults
- Clear your browser cache

Notes:
The AP’s default IP address is 192.168.0.100.
From firmware v1.0.4.8 and above, the DHCP client is enabled by default, and the default SSID is secured by WPA/WPA2-PSK. You can use the default SSID and passphrase printed on the back panel of the AP to connect your wireless client to the AP.
When there is no DHCP server you can use the default IP address (192.168.0.100) to log into the AP.
When you use a DHCP server but don't know the IP address assigned to the AP, you can enter “aplogin.net” in the browser address window on your wireless client to log into the AP.
The AP can be returned to factory default settings when necessary. Find the reset button at the back of the AP, and then press and hold the button for ~10 secs. The power LED blinks green during the reset process and then lights solid green when the process is complete.
In the following scenarios, the AP reboots automatically for the configuration to take effect:
a. Firmware upgrade
b. Reset factory defaults
c. Restore configuration
