Aironet 350~~ Help Factory Settings must be RESTORED

Hello,
I am the proud and happy new owner of the Cico Aironet 350 wireless access point. Now the issue (acquired by the company's buyout of another one), needless to say when I get it there is no username/passwords included. Just the cable/power supply and the wireless access point it self. Has anyone here ever worked with this unit before and if you have, do you know how to reset to the factory defaults?

Hi Joshua,
Here is the method to do a factory reset;
Reset the AP 350 That Runs Cisco IOS Software
Complete the steps in this section in order to reset an AP 350 that runs Cisco IOS Software.
Note: Cisco IOS Software-based APs have a default configuration that includes a username and password combination. Both the username and password are "Cisco", which is case-sensitive. After you reset to factory defaults, be prepared to give "Cisco" as both the username and password when you are prompted by either the GUI or the CLI.
The AP350 does not have a MODE button to reset the AP to factory defaults. So, if neither the GUI or CLI is available with sufficient privileges in the AP350, complete these steps to delete the current configuration and return all access point settings to the factory defaults using the CLI.
Reboot the access point by removing power and reapplying power. Let the access point boot until the command prompt appears and the access point begins to inflate the image. When you see these lines on the CLI, press ESC: Loading "flash:/" ...########################################################################### ################################################################################ ################################################################################ ####################
Once you press ESC, this information is displayed on the CLI screen..
Xmodem file system is available.

Note: The AP is configured with the factory default values that include:
The IP address, which is set to receive an IP address with DHCP
The default username and password, "Cisco"
After the full Cisco IOS Software is loaded and connectivity is reestablished, delete the config.old file from Flash.
Issue the del flash:config.old Cisco IOS Software command at an enabled prompt from the CLI.
ap#del flash:config.old
Delete filename [config.old]
Delete flash:config.old [confirm]

  • My daughter accidentally restored her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. Her photos were all on camera roll so I believe should have been backed up, but none of them have been restored. Why?

    My daughter accidentally reset her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. All her photos were on camera roll so I believe they should have automatically been backed up, but none have been restored. Why?

    When she plugged in the ipod last night it backed up again so that now shows as the latest backup. No previous backups are listed so I do not seem to have the option to rerun the old one. She had many pictures on the camera roll taken from well before July. I can only presume that the backup in July must have been incomplete - but then I didn't think it was supposed to list as an option to restore from. Luckily many of the photos had been backed up on the pc but I am very frustrated as to why the icloud backup didn't protect them. Thank you for your advice though, I appreciate it.

  • Took a back up in iTunes then restored factory settings and then restored back but photos and songs missing

    took a back up in iTunes then restored factory settings and then restored back but photos and songs missing

    How did the photos get onto the iPad ? If they were synced from a computer then they aren't included in the backup - the restore would look for them in the directory that they were synced from.
    And for the songs (and the contents of the Videos app and any iTunes downloads) they are also not included in the backup, the restore would look to copy them back from your computer's iTunes library. Do you have them in your iTunes library, or can you copy them into your library (File > Add To Library) so that you can sync them back ?

  • Unable to sync with computer. does not recognize Iphone and wants me to restore factory settings. Tried restoring several times in past but problem persists.

    Unable to sync iphone4. iphone not recognized. wants me to restore factory settings. I've done that several times and problem persists.This has been an issue sunce buying the phone.

    Hello @dazegoneby,
    I understand that your HP Pavilion p6-2220t Desktop PC running Windows 7 used to connect to your home network without an issue, but recently it does not recognise the network. I am providing you with an HP Support document: Troubleshooting Your Wireless Network and Internet Connection (Windows 7), which has steps to help resolve issues such as this. Now I am not recommending that you do the step that asks you to reset up your router as you have other devices that are working fine so that would not be the issue.
    If the above document does not resolve your issue could you please re-post with either a screen shot of your Device Manager showing what is listed in Network Adapters or re-post with which wireless card you have.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
    Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.

  • Restore iphone 5 to factory settings and then restore my data from backup

    I have an iphone 5 running ios 7.0.6 which was installed over the air. I want to replace that over the air installation with a usb installed version. It appears that to do this I have to 'restore' my iphone back to factory condition which as I understand it will install the new ios, but also erase all of my data/apps/etc. If I make a backup of my phone prior to 'restoring' it, will I be able to then use my backup to restore all my stuff?
    Thanks!
    Bob

    I have done the backup and restore several times to an iPad and an iPhone. I have never had a failure. Make certain your device is fully charged before you start.
    I have done this to remove excessive "other" storage on the devices.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    This will bring it back to factory. From there you can go through the setup process to either restore from a backup or set up as a new device.

  • HT201210 I've updated my iPad to iOS6. Now saying connect to iTunes, which is saying my iPad in recovery & to restore to factory settings & all media & data will be erased. I DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN. What can I do?

    I've update my iPad to iSO6. Now saying connect to iTunes, which is saying my iPad in recovery & to restore to factory stting & all media & data will be ereased. I DOT NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN. What can I do?

    You have no choice now. Unless you want a brick for an iPad. After you restore to factory settings you can restore from your backup ..... And you do backup don't you? I would never update the iOS software without backing up first. After you restore from the backup, sync with iTunes again and you should be OK. Assuming that you do sync with iTunes .....

    How to restore mac air late 2010 to its factory settings?

    To restore the Late 2010 MacBook Air to factory settings:
    1. Insert the OS X thumb drive that came with your computer, hold the Option (Alt) key while your computer is starting and choose your USB drive.

  • Find my iPhone stopped working when I restored to factory settings

    I have an iPhone4. I set up my find my iphone account. Everything was working perfectly.
    Then, one day I restored to factory settings and then restored from a backup. I didn't sign out off my find my iphone account, because I thought that it wouldn't give me any trouble.
    Now, when I log in to me.com, or use the iphone app, my iphone can't be found.
    I followed all the instructions showed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2734
    But still, my iPhone can't be found
    I even tried creating an account with other email adress (hotmail) and still, when I log in to me.com, it says that my iphone doesn't have any available location.
    So, I guess that it has to do with restoring without logging out, or deleting the device. But since I'm using the same mobile me account I used from the begining, and the device still has the same serial number, there should be a way to remove every device from my mobile me account and register it again as a new one, or something like that.
    Any advice?

    Fixed: went to Settings/iCloud, used Delete Account, turned phone off and on, Settings/iCloud, re-entered account info. Phone now found by Find My iPhone.
    Additional details: when it wasn't working it always said "Offline".
    Phone is currently running 5.1.1.

  • My passport-reset to Factory Settings (wdbbep0010brd)

    So, I have a problem with my external hard drive. The thing is that I formatted a couple of times my HD and now it is completely empty, although I think some files should be there. At the same time, the transferring speed is really slow (about 355kbps). I don't know if the tow things are related.My HD has failed every drive test i ran. I tried updating my HD and downloaded everything from here http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=218&sid=172&lang=gr. I even bought a new cable but the problem remains. I really think the only solution now is to reset my device to factory settings. I want to use it again like I just bought it or at least solve the problem. Plz help! I'm desperate! thankss!

    I would like to hear the answer to whether or not factory settings can be restored. I purchased two MyPassport Ultra 1 TB - one for me and one for my dad.  My dad's computer is a little messed up and I am trying to consolidate all of his data to hdd and run applications/os from ssd.  I ran the SmartWare software backup just to see how it functioned.  I would like to erase the data and settings I put on the MyPassport and start as though it just cam out of the box.  Can this be done? Also, can I delete anything from factory, like Mac stuff as I don't have a Mac? Thank you, Rob

    i tried to fix screen rotation on my ipad 2 after upgrading to ios 7.  did the lock / unlock button, the on/off and even reset to factory settings... nothing works... do not know what to do... any suggestions?

    When you reset to factory settings, did you restore as new or did you restore from a backup? If you restored from a backup, you could try restoring as new and don't use the backup. If you do that, you will lose all of your data, but you can download or sync all of your content back to the iPad.
    You could also try resetting all settings before your restore as new. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will have to re enter all device settings again.
    And of course the possibility does exist that the iPad has developed a hardware problem that is causing the rotation issue and only a visit to an Apple Store could determine that for sure.
