Because the factory default IP address configuration is DHCP, make sure 
that your DHCP server is running and can be reached. You may need to 
disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP 
addresses from the DHCP server. You can then query the DHCP server for 
the new IP address. See 
 for more information on how to find the DHCP 
address.
If the wireless access points do not receive a DHCP response (there is no 
DHCP server on your network) after 60 seconds, the access points will 
fallback to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a 
default mask of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address, be sure that your 
computer is on the 192.168.1.xxx network.
Rebooting the Devices or Returning them 
to their Factory Default Settings
To reboot your device:
• If the Cisco WAP371 uses a power adapter, with the power on, use the 
POWER button to reboot the device. The POWER button only functions 
when the Cisco WAP371 uses a power adapter. 
• When the power supply is PoE, unplug your Ethernet connection for 
three seconds and plug it back in.
or
• With the power on, press the Reset button with an opened paperclip for 
less than three seconds, or until the lights go off. 
When all the lights go off, release the Reset button.
Release the Reset button as soon as the lights go off, or you will 
restore the device to factory default settings and lose your 
configurations.
To reset the device to factory default settings:
• With the power on, press and hold the Reset button with an opened 
paperclip for more than 10 seconds.
All of the lights will go off.
Release the Reset button when the power light turns on.
