Description

Reset AP to factory default settings (e.g. password) and configure it (through serial port?).

Someone asked the same questions @several forums, but no one answered.
Perhaps the answer is in the manual.

With the help of Ivan & two manuals :-))

Achtung! Partizanen!
1) AP supports WEP ENCRYPTION ONLY!!!
2) We need an antenna, because signal is weak only 2 meters apart!
3) We configured DHCP, but we couldn't ping any machine.

Reset Procedure:
1) Enter "LEARN" mode: turn device off, press and hold the black "mode" button, turn on, wait until all "info" LEDs (with signal level) go off (approx. 1 second), release "mode" button. Now "info" LEDs display a "walking" pattern :-)
2) Press and hold the black "mode" button until all info LEDs are on (approx. 10 seconds), then release the "mode" button. Device will restart automatically.

Antenna is in the box.

I meant `external antenna'.
The antenna in the box is too weak. We got 50% signal 2 meters apart from AP and the WiFi module on Ivan's computer had great difficulty detecting & connecting to the network.
