Hi @Brinistico 

Thanks for reaching out to TP-Link Business Forums.

 

May I confirm what's the exact status of the EAP after "being reset"?

Did the SSID setup by yourself disappear?

What's the SSID it would broadcast after a reset? Does it match with that one on the label, which usually starts with TP-Link_2.4GHz_xxxx?

Did you or someone click on the "Reset"? You might setup a more complex password to prevent others from connecting to your WiFi.

 

BTW, this EAP is still running on an old firmware. You may manually upgrade to the latest one: EAP110-Outdoor | 300Mbps Wireless N Outdoor Access Point | Omada Network Support

How do I upgrade the firmware of my EAP device via web browser? | Omada Network Support

Thanks for your reply...
 

- EAP after self "reset" get into a "like new" status...

- SSID setup by myrself disappear

- SSID after reset goes to something that starts with TP-Link_2.4GHz_xxxx

- No one pressed "Reset" button or command. I am the onlyone that knows the password and no people has access to the place where it is installed. My wifi password is complex
- Only one device connects to this EAP, is a ring video door bell. 

Thanks for recommending on going to a new firmware. I just instaled latest firmware today.....I will keep monitoring on the behaviour.

Thanks and best regards.

Hi @Brinistico 

 

Could you please login to the EAP's GUI and navigate to Management > System Log and check if it warns AP being reset?

Please keep us update if you still have any issue after the firmware upgrade.

After the "self reset" everything is gone!! no configurations, no logs remain.

After firmware updated, I a still monitoring. 

I will let you know if there is any improvement
