Title: DCS-5020L - reset does nothing
Post by: berthagomez on December 09, 2017, 05:24:52 PM
Hello all you smart cookies! I'm hoping you might be able to share some wisdom and help me out.

I have a DCS 5020L that was working great at my previous home, but I have moved and want to set it up at my new place. The LED is solid red and a factory reset does nothing. When I use a pin to press in the button in the little hole, absolutely nothing happens. The LED doesn't even flicker. I can hear the little button click, and I hold it down for 10 seconds. Nothing. Hold it down for up to a minute. Still nothing.

Is there anything else I can try?

What Mfr and model is the main host router?
What wireless modes are you using?

Connect it to your router with an Ethernet cable and then see if you can access the admin interface in your web browser.
