SMC 2652W AP password reset
As page 8 of the online manual of the SMC 2652W AP is “broken” in Adobe Acrobat Reader, the procedure for resetting the access point to factory defaults is:
- Power off the SMC2652W
- Keep the reset button pressed, and power it on while keeping it pressed
- Wait till the “Wireless activity” and “Wireless connection” leds start blinking
- Release the reset button
- You can now switch modes by pressing the reset button shortly. The modes are:
| Connection | Activity | function |
| off | off | normal boot |
| off | on | reset to factory defaults |
| on | off | boot an primary firmware (?) |
| on | on | normal boot |
