Does anyone know how to gain access to a Spectrum24 4131 Wireless Access Point
it is not accepting the login and password and apparently there is a way of shorting pins inside to cold reset it as it doesnt have a button on the outside
Yeah tis indeed. I had one of these in my network at one point...sadly not anymore. On the Symbol site there are 3 linked 'Manuals', however no mention of resetting the device without logging in to the user interface first! Bit difficult if you are locked out
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes

Yeah I got hold of the manual and there's no mention of shorting any pins.
Edit: It looks like you can get to the config menu using a serial connection no password required
This is the access point in question and i have seen that you can access it via the serial connection i will be trying this on monday will keep you posted as to how it goes
You were asking at the start of this thread if there was a way to reset your WAP via a pin short. This is the official way:
On the RS232 port connect pins 2 and 3 as shown in the picture and switch the AP on for about 15 seconds. Switch off, disconnect the pins and switch on again. It should boot into factory default inclusive login and password.
(Nothing like a bit of digging!)
Hope this sorts out your problem.

I'm impressed at your digging! I searched a bit, and found the manual for the beast, but no hint of this reset proceedure.
