Add AP55 to XG135, pending Access point nothing

Edtrick Lam

Before we connected AP55 to XG135, I test it ok in home network (using Sophos Central) 

After that I move AP55 to connect XG135, AP55 is gotten IP address from DHCP server. But in XG135 Protect>Wireless>Access Point>Pending Access Point  (No AP showing up)

As per sophos forum advised, DHCP server / Default Gateway is not XG135 LAN IP, I need to add Pre-defind scope 234 to pint to XG135 LAN IP in DHCP server. I did it. But still no AP show up in Pending Access Point.

I don't have any idea how to activate AP55  , Please help

    Hi,

    another approach, try disabling the auto functions and the bandwidth (down to 20mhz) on the 5ghz channel. After it has been activated then you can restore your settings.

    I have run this procedure on two AP55 to prove that it works.

    Thanks your reply. I am unable to management access point , so  I can't disable auto function/bandwidth.

    Why did you connect it to sophos central rather than your XG?

    Before I tested it at home. so I use sophos central to access it. 

    As you suggest I take back home to connect sophos central again and then reset the factory setting ?? (But I didn't see any factory reset button in sophos central. They just delete button to unregister AP.)

    Is there any other connection (ssh,telnet) to AP55 doing factory reset??

    The other thing I concern that our default gateway is pointed to L3 Switch instead of XG-135. That make AP55 can't communicate to XG-135. (Because after installed XG135, I am still trying to solve another problem)

    Hi,

    try plugging the AP directly into a LAN port of the XG, assuming you have DHCP enabled on that port. Unregistering the AP should in theory reset it to factory defaults. Flo would be a better person to advise on that side if required.

    Finally Fix it. 

    - connect back to sophos central (need to open NTP port), and deleted deivce.

    - go back XG135 console, AP55 is showing in pending access point
