SmartUPS SU700NET AP9617

[BillP]

I have a "new to me" AP9617 attached to a "new to me" SU700NET. I was able to Telnet into the AP9617 (using a homemade serial cable I might add) and reset the IP. However, the ip address i assigned only works for 10-15 minutes and then I can no longer access it by using XXX-XXX-0-112 in my browser. (By the way, it took me a while to figure out the reset button only buys you enough time to get in and work on the config. I just recently found out you need to change the user name and password while inside as well).

I have also done the "reset everything but the tcip config" and that didnt help. Should i do the "reset all"? I can always redo the tcip settings i suppose. Should i set the config for DHCP? It is set for Manual now. Is there a way to completely wipe the card to factory defaults?

I have another unit with another card that is on XXX-XXX-0-155 and it works fine and has so since i installed it months ago. However, I'm not sure both AP9617s are using the same firmware.

thx

Ok, my bad. Web access was disabled. Odd that it worked briefly. All good now.

Thx
