Csonfusing to install - mess up? You need to reset your NMC - Total junk
I had high hopes for this little gadget. It was purchased so that I could manage and monitor the APC SMT1500 UPS in the garage. It was such a pain that I gave up on it and ran a CAT5e Ethernet cable to my UPS is and initiated a return. Read on if you want to know the gory details.First it requires an NMC3 (which all soon will require a subscription). Fine. I got one. But oddly enough it cannot browse for a SSID, you have to manually enter one and then be smart enough to know what flavor of WPA2 your router uses (there are three options). Worse yet when you activate the wireless adapter the Ethernet port on your NMC3 is disabled.If you made any wrong selections you will have no access and will have to connect a laptop with serial cable (hello 2023!) to fix your error via CLI or reset your NMC3 to factory defaults with a paper clip and reconfigure your NMC3 from scratch. Oh and when APC does decide to upgrade the firmware that is another trip to the CLI. Hilarious. (I work with the CLI from 9-5 in my day job and have no patience for this after work.Folks, I am a network monitoring engineer and was simply over it. If you know patient network AND security engineers I suppose you could get it working after enough effort. A fantastically poorly thought out and executed product. Total junk. Do not buy!!!
