What should I do if I forgot the administrator password?

You must reset the access point to factory settings (see reset question). This erases all settings, including the password.

How to install the access point on the ceiling?

Use the included mounting kit: attach the bracket to the ceiling (hook or T-rail), then snap the access point into place. Use the drilling template for screws if needed.

The LED is flashing orange, what should I do?

A flashing orange LED indicates an error (e.g., startup failure). Try restarting the device by unplugging and replugging the power. If the problem persists, reset it.

O

intact all the noces that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your upon oer warranty protecon in exchange for a fee.

1. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any poron of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modicaons or work under the terms of Seco 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modied les to carry prominent noces stang that you changed the les and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third pares under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a noc that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Excepton: if the Program itself is interacve but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If idenable seconds of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those seconds when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same seconds as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribuon of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the enre whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this secon to claim rights or contest your rights to work wien enrely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribuon of derivave or collecve works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregaon of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribuon medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

1. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Secon 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Secons 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Secons 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for soware interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a wien oer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribuon, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Secns 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for soware interchange; or.
c) Accompany it with the informaon you received as to the oer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternate is allowed only for noncommercial distribuon and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an oer, in accord with Subsec on b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modicaons to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface denion les, plus the scripts used to control compilaon and installaon of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operang system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribuon of executable or object code is made by oering access to copy from a designated place, then oering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribuon of the source code, even though third pares are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

1. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any aempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatcally terminate your rights under this License. However, pares who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such pares remain in full compliance.
2. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These acons are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.

Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

1. Each me you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restricons on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third pares to this License.

2. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to sasfy simultaneously your obligaons under this License and any other pertinent obligaons, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribuon of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could sasfy both it and this License would be to refrain enrely from distribuon of the Program.

If any poron of this secon is held invalid or unenforceable under any parcular circumstance, the balance of the secon is intended to apply and the secon as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this secon to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this secon has the sole purpose of protecng the integrity of the free soware distribuon system, which is implemented by public license pracces. Many people have made generous contribuons to the wide range of soware distributed through that system in reliance on consistent applicaon of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute soware through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This secon is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

1. If the distribuon and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribuon limitaon excluding those countries, so that distribuon is permied only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitaon as if wrien in the body of this License.

2. The Free Soware Foundaon may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from me to me. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a disguishing version number. If the Program species a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the open of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Soware Foundaon. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Soware Foundaon.

1. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribuon conditions are dierent, write to the author to ask for permission. For soware which is copyrighted by the Free Soware Foundaon, write to the Free Soware Foundaon; we somemes make excepns for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivaves of our free soware and of promong the sharing and reuse of soware generally.

NO WARRANTY

1. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTYES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

2. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
