4.4 Verify Device Functionality and Test Network Coverage

1. Check LEDs

The Radio Power LED should be solid green. If it is ﬂashing orange, the ﬁrmware is automatically

upgrading and the LED should turn green when the upgrade is completed (normally completed in

under thirty minutes). If the device is a gateway, the Ethernet LED and the four Signal Strength

LEDs should be green as well. If the device is a repeater only, the Ethernet LED will not be

illuminated and the number of green Signal Strength LEDs will depend on strength of connection

to the nearest Meraki device. See LED Indicator section of Hardware Installation Guide on p. XX

for further details about information conveyed by LEDs.

Note: Your MR14 must have an active route to the Internet to check and upgrade its ﬁrmware.

2. Verify access point connectivity

Use any 802.11 client device to connect to the MR14 and verify proper connectivity using the

client’s web browser.

3. Check network coverage

Conﬁrm that you have good signal strength throughout your coverage area. You can use the

signal strength meter on a laptop, smart phone or other wireless device.
