Model: OC200  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: unsure

Good evening!

 

I have an OC200 controller (hardware version 1.6) that was in service and working to control 5 access points for about a year. A couple months ago, I attempted to update the firmware as I have done several times in the past. It rebooted to finish the install and never came back to life. I tried multiple power cycles, I tried holding the reset button, I tried holding the reset button why applying power, and nothing. I tried connecting to the last known local IP, I tried connecting to the default IP. When I plug it into the router, I get a connection light on the OC200, but the MAC address doesn't appear in the devices list on the router nor does it get an IP (it was configured as DHCP before it's untimely death). 

 

Unfortunately, the network it managed was unable to be down while I navigated the warranty process, so I had to just buy a new one. But I would like to get this one revived as a backup or possibly to just use at my home. 

 

Anyone have any tips for bringing this thing back to life?
