Troubleshooting & LED Light guide
Troubleshooting
The LED indicator of my AP isn't steady white, how do I fix this?
If your AP LED isn't steady white, this can mean one of a few things, e.g. the device might be loading, it may have been adopted already or it might not be getting enough power.
To make a previously adopted device available for adoption or resolve startup issues, reset it to factory defaults first.
If the LED isn't visible at all, try connecting the AP using a different cable or a different powering method.
The UniFi Network app doesn't detect my AP automatically, what do I do?
This is normal behavior for new devices. You'll need to scan the QR code on your AP or enter its MAC ID manually by clicking "Enter ID manually".
