Country Code Change and General Wi-Fi issues

hsran — Sat, 22 May 2021 08:31:10 GMT

Got used Aerohive AP250's from eBay US and tried to assign country code “New Zealand” but it shows this error.

“You cannot change the country code of the device (AH-xxxxxx) because only devices whose regions are set to World or EU can be changed.”

Country Code comes up as “United States (840)” and running the latest OS “10.0.10.2”.

Was told by support to submit a ticket or give them a call. Choose to submit a ticket but when I tried to create a login for support portal, it was rejected for using a personal email.

Can some help me submitting a ticket? I’ll message you the serial number.

Other issue I have been facing with setting up the AP is that it’s not broadcasting SSID (comes as hidden) even though the “Hide SSID “ option is turned off.

I have never used Aerohive products or ExtremeCloudIQ.

@Sam Pirok Anyway to get approved for Extreme Portal with a personal email?

@hsran - That is correct - if this AP has a manufacture site in the US, you cannot change to another country (illegal). As for signing up for Extreme Support with a Portal account, did you check your SPAM folder for any follow-up emails from the Support site?

And - for the AP250, you will need an instance of Extreme Cloud IQ to manage the AP. You can purchase the Access Point from a third party vendor, but you need to have the underlying Cloud Instance to Manage it.

I was of the view that the regulatory domain can be changed to New Zealand as the AP has R-NZ certification on the back?

As mentioned previously my Extreme Portal request was rejected because I had used personal email address (@aol.com.au). I don’t have a company email as these AP’s are for home use.

Lastly I thought IQ Connect (free tier) was all you need to setup the AP’s?

Still can’t get the AP to broadcast SSID even after assigning the correct country code. I’m’m using both interfaces wifi0 & wifi1 to broadcast the same SSID.

ISP VDSL Modem (10.0.0.1) > TP-Link VPN Router (192.168.0.1) > TP-Link Switch > AP250 (eth0, PoE).

I have only used VLAN1

If you could add me to your XIQ instance temporarily with the email spriok@extremenetworks.com, I could take a look at the configuration and try to find out why the SSID is not broadcasting for you. I’d also need to know your VIQ name which you can find in Global Settings> VIQ Management, it starts with VHM- .

Will do that on Sunday.

Tried adding your email but this error pops up “The specified email address may not match an external admin account or may already be granted access.”.

Would let me assign any role to your email address.

Had the operator role assigned to one of my mates and it worked fine.

Can we mark this issue as resolved.

The issue was with the TP-Link Omada switch. Removing it from the cloud and configuring it locally solved the isssue.
