wAP R (RBwAPR-2nD) - factory reset?

Thu Aug 22, 2019 6:17 pm

Hello,

I have a wAP R (RBwAPR-2nD).
After configuring it, it became unavailable. Winbox can't find it in Neighbors.
I can see WiFi SSID I set, but I can't connect it.

How to factory reset it?

I tried pressing the 'reset' button and while I hold it, I turn the router off and on again; I wait for 8 seconds and release the 'reset' button. Nothing happens. WiFi SSID I set is stil visible. I still can't reach the router.

What can I do?

Hello,

If you have changed MikroTik default configuration to non-default, you will need to Netinstall the device.
Reset and Netinstall description see below:

If you have turned ON protected booloader, then you have to know the time of how long time you have to hold reset button.
