Since ZON only supports Windows, Linux/MAC users cannot use ZON to scan their access point (AP). To make the AP back to online status, please follow the below steps:
- Please reboot your AP by replugging the power cable or the ethernet cable.
- If the AP is still offline after 5-10 minutes, please check your firewall’s/router’s DHCP lease table to find your AP’s IP address and log in to it.
- Please follow this FAQ to check your problem.
- If you cannot find the IP address, please remove the firewall/router from the switch and press the reset button for 10 seconds to reload the factory default.
- Please make sure your PC has a static IP address (ex. 192.168.1.10/255.255.255.0).
- Connect your PC to the same switch with your access point, and access its default IP address. (192.168.1.3)
- Configure your AP with a static IP address, a default gateway, and a DNS server.
- Connect back your firewall/router.
- Navigate to the diagnostic page and ping “8.8.8.8” to check the Internet connection and ping “d.nebula.zyxel.com” to check the DNS resolution ability.
- Check if your firewall has blocked the netconf protocol (4335/6667) or MTU size is not 1500.
