ASI Air Plus Broken

redpine42

So tonight I started up my ASIAir Plus, select plan, select the settings and it exits. I start backup the app, do the same things and it exits again. I see no other way to edit the plan. So I try doing a factory reset by holding the button down and nothing changes.

Any ideas on what to do?

So what I thought was a factory reset button is a wifi reset button. Is there no way to reset the ASI Air plus back to it's original state? Without being able to use plan the machine is essentially bricked.

Supposedly, holding down the black reset button for longer than 5 seconds will bring back the original "factory" firmware.

The next time you connect the box to an ASIAIR app, the app will update that factory version with the current version of the firmware.

Your problem sounds like the app in the tablet is crashing, though. Check to make sure you have enough RAM in the tablet. ASIAIR 2.0 seems to eat up more RAM than previous versions. You can help it by powering the tablet down, and then rebooting it, and then with no other app running, try ASIAIR.

Thanks. The black button is wifi reset. As for memory, not a problem I'm running on Iphone 14 with 512GB. It's been running fine now for a couple months. I think the problem happened, when I unchecked all the items in the plan and then exited. Since then if I try to edit the plan it crashes. This could be the server crashing or possibly a java script error on the front end. If I could ssh in I'd probably be able to fix it myself.

redpine42 The black button is wifi reset.

On the third generation ASIAIR, the red WiFi status LED is in the hole that is just under the "WiFi" caption.

The round black button that is under the RESET caption is a "soft" switch.

Depressing the round black button for a short time resets the ASIAIR; it should stop all, including storage, activity and allowing you to turn off the power. Long press on that button for longer than 5 seconds will do a firmware reset -- the firmware version reverts to the one that originally came with your ASIAIR. You should see the firmware version change when you do that.

redpine42 You talk about ssh and yet you are saying your Iphone 14 has 512 GB "memory" ...
