My situation. I have a mikrotik / AP setup. I was playing with some settings and now I think I might need to Reset Groove A-52HPn to default. Problem is they are mounted where I cannot physically reach to press the reset button. I have tried everything possible to try and access the Access points. Including plugging directly to my laptop, trying Telnet/MacTelnet even clicking the MAC on winbox gets me nowhere. Please help. I have included a screen-shot of my winbox and the 0.0.0.0 AP IP. I can winbox fine into the 'whitehouse1'. I have searched the forum for a similar problem even google won't help

Thank you

Hi,

Just an idea:
1. try with Winbox 3.10;
2. if winbox 3.10 still does not work i have a suggestion: connect via winbox on WHITE HOUSE 1 ( 192.168.88.2 ); from it go to ip -> neighbors. If you have interfaces enabled on "discovery interfaces" tab ( on 192.168.88.2 device ) into the NEIGHBOR LIST window under "Neighbors" tab you should see WHITE HOUSE 3 listed. Click right on it and then select MAC TELNET. Does it connect to it ?

Hope it helps

kind regards,

Thanks for your reply. Sorry for the late reply. For some reason I did not get a notification on the bell thing...anyway, I tried all your suggestions actually tried winbox 3.11 still nothing

Do the devices with zero ip have the ip within the same subnet? Do they have any firewall rules on the connected interfaces?
