Hi All,
Just returned to the hobby after 15 years and bought a redsea max 170. Finally got everything set up and ready to go except for the ReefLED 90 that came with the aquarium.
Let me preface this by saying I've already contacted RedSea and am waiting to hear back from them, but wanted to check the forums to see if anyone has had this specific problem.
I was having a bunch of connectivity issues where the light wouldn't connect to my home wifi (for the record my wifi strength is good as I have a mesh system at home with complete coverage all over). I tried multiple times over the last 24 hours to get this to work. Somehow it even showed up in my device manager in reefbeat, but it must not have been actually connected because the lights would not come on when i scheduled them. I decided to delete the device from reefbeat and try doing a factory reset followed by unplugging the light for a good minute or so. Held the button down for 15 seconds and the reset seemed to have gone through. Unplugged the light and waited. Plugged the light back in and now both the plug and the gear lights are a solid red. To my surprise, I now cannot put the light in AP mode! I've tried holding down for 5 seconds. Tried to do another factory reset. Tried unplugging for 5 minutes and plugging back in. Nothing seems to work here. Anyone have any suggestions here or did i possibly get a bum unit?
