MikroTik Groove 52 ac not able to reset

Wed Jul 21, 2021 4:57 pm

Issue
I am currently trying to reset a MikroTik Groove 52 ac but it doesn' t seem to work.

Setup
I plug the POE adapter to a power adapter and the DATA port to my computer. Then, I press and hold the reset button of the Router and plug in the POE ethernet cable from the POE adapter into the Router.

Expected behaviour
I expect that the last LED should be off, and after a few seconds, it should start blinking so I can release it and connect with my web browser to 192.168.88.1

Actual behaviour
When pressing and holding the reset button and connecting the POE ethernet adapter, the first and the last LED are on, and all the other LEDs are off. No matter how long I keep the reset button pressed, it will not start blinking or turn off.

Additional information
The Router was used previously as CPE bridge to connect switch to a WiFi-network.
I tried to use Winbox v3.28 on Windows 10 to connect, but it did not work with the Mac address listed on the Router and the Neighbours tab doesn' t show any device connected.

Question
How can I reset the Router so I can connect it to a new network?

With kind regards,
Dave

From what you describe, your device appear broken...

Thanks for the quick reply.

How certain is it, that the device is broken? I want to be sure before buying a new device.
Could something break during the reset procedure?

If you "simply" power up the device, something blink?

When I simply power it up, without resetting it, the exact same two LEDs light up. They don't blink, they are just ON.
