Can't access WAP54G after firmware upgrade

Hi all,

 

I just tried to upgrade the firmware of my WAP54G to the most recent version; however, I got a message on web browser with legend "Update fail" and then I lost the communication with device. Now, I just goty Power and Link LED's, but nothing on Act (green led, indicator of WiFi),

 

Some suggestions? I tried to reset using button, and to connect via LAN, but setup wizard is unable to locate the device.

 

Thanks in advance,

Wizzard

Push the reset button for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, without releasing the reset button, disconnect the power cord from the Access Point. (AP) Wait for 15 seconds. Plug the power back in and finally release the button.

 

Connect your AP with a computer using an Ethernet cable. Put a static IP on the computer (192.168.1.10) and subnet mask (255.255.255.0). No need to put any other information.

 

Now try to ping the IP address of AP, i.e.. 192.168.1.245. If you are getting a reply from the IP address, that shows AP is functional. If not, then try changing the Ethernet cable.
