Last night, I spent some time and tried:
- powering it off and on - no change
- resetting it - no change
- resetting it and holding for 10 seconds - the light turns blue as soon as I disconnect the LAN cable. After resetting, the LED cycles through colors then turns blue again.
- Connecting to the apex wifi setup network:
- navigating to http://apex.local didn't work
- I was able to use 172.16.0.1 to get to the setup screen
- On the setup screen I tired entering my wifi network and it didn't work.
- After resetting again and using 172.16.0.1 I tried the Lock Access mode per the instructions on this page. The first time it locked up after logging in. The second time I was able to navigate to the network configuration screen and enter my wifi network info. The LED turned orange for a second and it seemed to work, then it went back to blue and wouldn't connect.
