Down Ubiquiti
Quick Check: Common Causes of Down Radio
- Outage
- Radio not receiving power (POE Not plugged in correctly, bad cable, GFI outlet tripped)
- Cables in the POE are loose and not getting a solid connection
- Cables are not plugged in properly
Checking The Tower
Go to Network Sites and look for red down equipment for the following towers.
- OR-A
- PR-A
- PR-B
- SF-A
- SV-A
- SV-E
If anything shows red and down equipment for the above towers only, reach out in slack and @Aaron.
If they are all green and show no down equipment continue below
Power Cycling The POE
Confirm the POE has power and that the cables are plugged into the correct ports.
- Ethernet Cable going to the router wan port should be plugged into the Lan port of the POE.
- Cable going to the radio should be plugged into the POE port on the POE.
Have the customer unplug the POE for 30-60 seconds. While it is unplugged (green light is out) have them reseat the cables into the POE one at a time to make sure they have a solid connection while it's unplugged. Once verified, have the customer plug the POE back in. The equipment should come back online within 2 minutes if this fixed the issue.
If the Tower and AP are online but the radio remains down after the above troubleshooting you will want to begin the Escalation Procdeure.
