6. Održavanje

• Regularly check the device for any physical damage or loose connections, especially after severe weather conditions.
• Ensure the weather-sealed caps on the ports are securely fastened to prevent water ingress.
• Keep the device's firmware updated to ensure optimal performance and security. Refer to the manufacturer's website for the latest firmware versions and update instructions.
• Clean the exterior of the device periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris.

7. Otkrivanje problema

• Nema napajanja: Check the power adapter and PoE converter connections. Ensure the power outlet is functional.
• Nema Wi-Fi signala: Verify that the antennas are correctly installed and tightened. Check the device's operating mode and Wi-Fi settings in the web interfejs.
• Slaba jačina signala: Adjust the device's placement to minimize obstructions. Ensure antennas are oriented correctly. Consider using Repeater Mode if extending coverage over a large area.
• Ne mogu pristupiti Web Interfejs: Ensure your computer is directly connected to the PoE converter's LAN port. Verify your computer's IP settings are compatible with the device's default IP range. Try resetting the device to factory defaults using the Reset button.
• Intermitentna veza: Check for interference from other wireless devices or electrical equipment. Ensure the Ethernet cable length does not exceed 60 meters (196 feet) to prevent power loss over PoE.
