wireless settings match those of your remote AP.
Check the LED status lights to verify correct operation.
1. Make sure you are using the power adapter supplied
by Ruckus Wireless.
2. Make sure the Power LED is lit. If it is not lit, make sure
that the power cord is properly connected to the
Ruckus MM2225 Metro Broadband Gateway, and that
the power supply adapter is properly connected to a
functioning power outlet. If the error persists, you have
a hardware problem and should contact technical sup-
port.
3. Make sure your Network LED is lit. Make sure that the
Ethernet cable connections are secure at the Ruckus
MM2225 Metro Broadband Gateway and your com-
puter. The LAN LED on the Ruckus MM2225 Metro
Broadband Gateway indicates link when the gateway is
fully seated in the port.
4. Make sure the Wireless LED is either steady or flashing
Green. If not lit, the Wireless settings may be incorrect
between the Ruckus MM2225 Metro Broadband Gate-
way and your computer.
If necessary, reset the Ruckus MM2225 Metro Broadband
Gateway gateway to its factory defaults
If you forgot which security settings you assigned to the
Ruckus MM2225 Metro Broadband Gateway, you can reset it
to factory defaults by inserting the end of a paper clip into
the reset button hole located on the back of the unit.
Press and hold the reset button for at least eight seconds,
until all Dome LEDs start to flash simultaneously. Then you
can connect to the Ruckus MM2225 Metro Broadband Gate-
way using the default network settings.
