Default Wireless Radio Settings


Defaulting a radio means setting it back to default settings. The following are default IP's. I will add more as I run across them. Hint - Try to ping the device  first. This will tell you if your radio is responding over the Ethernet.
192.168.1.1 - CB3 2611 , NexGen Light ( no firmware upgrade) , TRCPE
192.168.1.2 ( mesh)
192.168.0.22 (smartbridge)
192.168.2.254 - TexN (no supported any longer)
192.168.2.1 - NexGen Pro (preloaded version 5/6 code)
192.168.1.1 - Netgear, and Linksys
Defaulting the radio also means you loose all data and settings.
  • After a radio is defaulted you need to be on the same physical network.
  • Do not ever reboot a radio when its upgrading.
  • Always be on-site when you do the firmware upgrades, considering most are multi-part and feed from a TFTP system where you can upload each piece at a time.
  • If your remotely or wireless connected to the radio you are upgrading, as soon as the radio reboots your connection will be disrupted, and possibly broken if the unit was lodging a multi-part upgrade.
