Sophos Central managed Access points

i have Sophos AP100c, AP100x, Apx320x, apx 530.

the challenge im having is that they keep on disconnecting to the internet at different times. 

i have tried rebooting or unplugging and reconnecting it back, it fixes the problem but later on goes offline again.

  • Hello Eddie,

    Good day and thanks for reaching out to Sophos Community.

    Wanted to check what firmware these APs are running? it should be under Wireless>Settings>Basic Settings > Firmware Update

    Also what log messages do you see under Analyze > Diagnoses > Events ? 

    If this is an urgent concern, I may recommend you to open a support ticket to have this further investigated. Kindly share with us the caseID once you have it.

    Many thanks for your time and patience and thank you for choosing Sophos.

    Cheers,
