NWA130BE continuously rebooting

pr65

HI everybody,
I'm trying to install a NWA130BE in our network and encountering issues with the configuration.
The AP is continuously resetting, showing a LED cycle such as: ~120s of green/yellow blink, followed by ~30s of solid green light. The device is connected with an external power supply and with a cable from uplink port directly to our modem.
- I tried to add it to Nebula, but is not showing up online
- I tried to connect via WiFi, but I see the Zyxel-xxxx network only for few seconds every cycle and not able to connect
- I tried to connect via wired ethernet (on both ports) to 192.168.1.2, but it's refusing the connection.

I would like to configure it locally without Nebula.
Any suggestion on what can be the cause?
kind regards

Hi @pr65,

To configure NWA130BE locally, you can connect to 192.168.1.2 and then enter the admin and 1234 as this is the default user name and password.

If you can't access the web page, you can check on the forum post to reset it.

Feel free to have any feedback from you.

Thanks.

Dear Ivan,
As I wrote in the OP, I already tried to connect to 192.168.1.2, but I don't get any web page.
Just to be sure, I tried again. This is what I tried:

- I connected my PC NIC directly to the uplink port (tried also the other port, just in case)
- PC set to static IP 192.168.1.11/24
- I turned on the device
- the device enters the yellow/green blink cycle as described above.
- I cannot connect to the web interface (firefox on linux mint)
- I cannot ping the device
- I tried to reset to factory default by pressing 10s the button when device is on, nothing changed.
- I tried to reset by pressing the reset button, turning on, waiting 10s. Nothing changed.

Any other advice?

Hi @pr65,

The IP could be changed since the device was managed by Nebula.

I suggest you use ZON to check the correct for the WebGUI, click here for the steps.

Feel free to share any feedback from you.

Thanks.

Dear Ivan,
I was never able to manage with Nebula. I entered the SN and MAC but the device never showed as online.
I then removed the device from Nebula.

I just tried to use ZON, but no way. I cannot see the AP listed.
- I connected the AP to the same router I'm connected with my PC. Not working.
- I connected the AP to the PC directly. Not working.
After the scan, there are no devices listed.

I still see that the device LED is green for 18s and then blinking yellow/green for 32s. Then repeat.

Any other advice?
