Assuming Windows 10 1903 or newer
Open a command prompt
SSH IP of AP
creds are likely default at ubnt/ubnt
type help to get command for upgrade
get URL for firmware file from ui.com site
type upgrade command with URL - watch shit happen.Or just factory reset and then adopt.
which is what ended up happening....

Time for another factory reset.

Factory Reset, now I'm trying to SSH into it.

Factory Reset, now I'm trying to SSH into it.
It's still flashing green, which means it hasn't finished the rest process.

So it's actually in TFTP mode..

okay,
I got an AP AC Lite to adopt.
Changed IP address to Static and changed the IP of the Network and now it wont readopt.How bad did I mess this up?
What can I do to fix it? -
@WrCombs : Factory reset button and a glass of scotch...

What can I do to fix it?you can't re-adopt. You have reset the unit first.

I feel like the glass of Scotch is more a need then a want at this point...

@WrCombs : I was going to suggest that the order of my comment wasn't important. In fact, I'd suggest the latter before the former

So Setup the Network to the IP Scheme , then forget device, reset device and then re adopt.
Got it.
question; do i need to set up my ETH2 on the Edgerouter to be that IP scheme that I'm wanting that network to be?Am I over complicating this?
brb Pouring up an oldfashioned. -

The tablet connects to the Network, with a Static IP of192.168.128.103
the Ip of the AP is showing as192.168.2.41..But it is connected..
is that normal?? -

is that normal??sure, it can be. All depends on the routing.
I assume you have the AP connected somehow to the second port on the ER-L, and that it's getting DHCP from that, but that same switch also has a connection to the secondary NIC in your Server, so the static IP'ed traffic can get around on that. You've kinda created a bridge between the networks via the AP, and if the password is the default, that could be a problem.
