ASIAIR pro wifi fail

JohnJHughes

I have an ASIAIR PRO which was working fine but now when I plug it in the WIFI doesn't come on. I get a power light and the card light blinks but no light from the WIFI light. I tried the reset for five seconds but it does not reset the system. I also do nt get the warning beep after turning the unit on. The power outlets work to power the camera cooler but no WIFI

If you do not hear the beep from a second generation ASIAIR, it probably means that it has not finished booting, and that could explain why you also do not see a WiFi signal.

Try a new copy of the microSD card image backup that you made when you first received the ASIAIR. See if the original firmware works.

If the microSD card is the problem, in the future, make sure to (1) do a soft shutdown from the ASIAIR Settings page, (2) wait for the double beep from the ASIAIR, and (3) wait for the green LED on the ASIAIR to stop flashing, before removing power from the ASIAIR. Not following this sequence can cause the microSD card to go south again (just like pulling the plug from your desktop computer).

Ok I accessed the backup card but I am still getting no indication that the ASIAIR Wi-Fi is operating.

No beep either?

Perhaps it is time to contact your dealer for a replacement.
