password for aironet ap350

anyone know how to reset the password and user on a ap350 i bought one off ebay ?


  1. Connect to the AP via console cable.
  2. Reboot the access point by power cycling
  3. When you see the Loading "flash:/blah blah blah", press your ESC key
  4. you should now have an ap: prompt.
  5. enter the flash_init command to initialize flash
  6. use dir flash: to show the contents of flash mem
  7. use the rename command to rename the config file (I THINK config.txt) to config.xxx like rename flash:config.txt flash:config.xxx
  8. reset the AP by power cycling.

this should fix it - you should be back to factory defaults.
