Cant Update Scripts or Factory Reset #11

Closed BalooRJ1 closed 1 year ago

BalooRJ1 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I have found an issue where I've accidentally removed the Mesh WiFi Band from the hub node when I attempted to change the name of the SSID for the 5ghz band only to differentiate it from the 2.4 GHz band I am attempting to factory reset the hub node to correct this issue. However, when I attempt to reset the hub node, I get this issue:

Do " /root/script/updatefirmware.sh " on each node

c-24-13-168-1.h:

foreachnodeparellel: still jobs ssh: Could not resolve hostname c-24-13-168-1.h: Name does not resolve foreachnodeparellel: done!

This same error "Name does not resolve" occurs for attempting to update the scripts from Github and update the firmware from Dropbox. Could you provide any assistance? Thanks so much.

Huh, it must be something about the hostname you chose, c-24-13-168-1.h

You can also factory reset the nice manually by holding the reset button on it for 5+ seconds, while the node is on.

Thank you so much! Very glad the ability to factory reset using the device was there. I just purchased a second Belkin RT3200 from you to use as a mesh router extension point. Is there a way to differentiate the name of the 2.4ghz and the 5ghz bands?

There are actually one 2.4 ghz and two 5 ghz bands on a triband device. You can change the names of each on this page http://192.168.2.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/network/wireless# or Network / Wireless in the top menu. Just click Edit on any of the interfaces that are mode:Master, not the Mesh Point interface. In the pop up dialog, edit the ESSID name and then save and then apply.

Strange, that is what I did earlier and it caused the entire 5ghz radio to deactivate. Could it be a bug? Then when I renamed the 5ghz band the Mesh band completely disappeared. I'll have to retry at a later point to see if it was user error on my end. Thanks Dr. Haas.
