Bug Fixes:

Known Issues:

  1. The data traffic over WDS has issues with WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication when “Enable Client association” option is disabled.
    Workaround: After WDS configuration completed, reboot the APs for the WDS to work properly.
  2. WDS link has issues when changing the authentication from OPEN-NONE to WPA-PSK only.
    Workaround: After WDS configuration completed, reboot the APs for the WDS to work properly.
  3. The backup config file taken from FW version V2.0.11 or before will not be restored on the FW V2.0.15 and above
    Workaround: FW upgrade from V2.0.x to V2.0.15 works fine so try to avoid doing backup / restore configuration.

Notes:

  1. The default IP address of the AP is 192.168.0.100
  2. In the following scenarios AP is expected to reboot automatically for the configuration to take affect:
    In all the other conditions AP is not supposed to reboot automatically
  3. With Rogue AP and more than 2 VAPs (security profiles) enabled, the beacon interval of the AP will be automatically updated for better performance of the Rogue AP algorithm. We recommend not to reconfigure the beacon interval below the suggested value. Anything above the suggested value is fine.
