hAP AC2 Wrong Setup Instructions

Mon May 07, 2018 12:44 pm

I have received my second hAP AC2 now, but both the previous unit and this new unit are not broadcasting any network by default.

Image

Is this a mistake with the instructions or is something else going on? As far as I know my distributor is not making any modifications to the default configs.

As soon as I plugged in an ethernet cable, the link went up and down several times and now the default wireless network is broadcasting (??!).

Looking at the logs it seems the unit didn't even register as being powered on until I plugged in the ethernet, it was on for 5+ minutes but the log shows:

Are you able to configure hAP ac^2 now?

Yes, can configure over both wired and wireless. Very strange first time startup behavior though.

haha!The initial factory configuration IS NOT for home use. It is for CPE connection. MT has to explain this initial configuration. As for me, the initial configuration should be dual home AP.

What are the maximum download speeds for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz?

I only did quick test of 5 GHz to confirm unit was working OK, 176.24 mbps to HAP AC at -60dBm. 2.4 GHz isn't too important to me so I didn't test it.

The device is not set up as a CPE from factory. Did you buy it refurbished or from a distributor that has maybe changed the config?

Both of mine were new, from the only place in NL that had them in stock at the time (Routershop, listed as official reseller on "Buy" page). They were not in CPE mode once I was able to get a connection, something just caused the first time power up to behave very weirdly. Maybe next time I will try power cycling if the Mikrotik network isn't visible.

Keep in mind that the 5GHz radio will go into radar-detection mode for ~60s once RouterOS is booted.

There is very likely some first-boot scripts that run that add to this, including SSH key generation; this was deferred until first SSH connection in later RouterOS versions.
