Dear Cisco aka Leo Laohoo,
I tried what you said here based on the link you shared with it, but it did
not work or help regardless of if what I was holding the mode button
slipped off the mode button before the last 10 seconds of holding the mode
button after powering on the Wireless Access Point after holding the mode
button for 1 minute before powering it on by plugging the Wireless Access
Point to an adapter or Power Over Ethernet device:
The rommon mode also displays output in putty. Check your console
connection.
The changing lights as per the documentation means that the AP is still
booting up.
The proper way to factory reset the AP is to turn it off, press the mode
button and hold it, then power on the AP. Keep the mode button pressed for
10 seconds and release. After that you should have your AP reset.
Check if you can see it with CDP on the switch that it is connected.
If it starts working and gets an IP address ->
Here is the somewhat useful link on the conversion, that will give you
provided in the email to give me an idea:
https://www.speaknetworks.com/converting-cisco-wireless-access-point-lightweight-mode-autonomous-mode-vice-versa/The radios on your AP wont come up until the AP joins a Controller which
you do not have and I do not because I did this before in Class with a
Cisco AIR-1602I-A-K9 by using only POE with a connection to the College
Campus to provide a DHCP ip address and I did it with a Cisco AIR-CAP
2602I-A-K9 to using either a Cisco 3560v2 switch to provide the POE and
DHCP ip address using Inter-Vlan configuration at least from Version 7 of
the CCNP IP Switch Lab manual or a Cisco Small Business RV042G Router with
built switch and a adapter except the Cisco AIR-CAP2602I-A-K9 can't do
WPA-AES-TKIP or WPA2-AES-TKIP Personal encryption instead of WPA-AES-TKIP
WPA2-AES-TKIP Enterprise Encryption that either can't be administers
locally or I couldn't figure how to administer WPA-AES-TKIP WPA2-AES-TKIP
Enterprise Encryption locally.
I tried someone else's suggestion of just holding the mode button for 1
minute without powering the Wireless Access Point on and letting go of mode
button as well as then powering it on with either Power Over Ethernet or an
adapter and it worked one time until I tried to access the gui using
Microsoft's Edge Browser with the http protocol instead of Google Chrome
that won't run anymore for some reason, which using Google Chrome instead
of Microsoft's Edge Browser should make that much of a difference
considering it usually works about the same now or just as well with the
similar results as it has improved over Microsoft's Internet Explorer's
problems except it said failed to connect instead of just this connection
is not secure being another problem until I fix that problem too.
Here is the lab from the class I'm trying to make sure I can practice in
spare time instead of just going to school early before class to practice
too, so hopefully I'll finally pass the skill final and the written final
instead of failing by 1 percent of a grade point, which is attached below.
If you are lucky the AP might contain an autonomous image already.
Show us the contents with the command "show flash:" or "show dir"
Hope any of that information helps.
