Reboot Script for Linksys WAP200 access points

Since the Linksys WAP200 has a tendency to hang and not let any users connect anymore, this little script to reboot an accesspoint (webinterface still works fine). Replace user and password with correct values.

if [[ "$#" == "1" ]]
then
nc -w1 -z $1 443
if [[ "$?" == "0" ]]
then
wget -q -O - --user=foouser --password=foopass --no-check-certificate --post-data='DeviceReboot=1&page=AdminReboot.htm' https://${1}/reboot.cgi >/dev/null
else
echo "Could not connect to https webinterface on ${1}"
fi

echo "Usage: $(basename $0) "

    Thanks!!!!

    We have 17 APs WAP200 and we have an issue with radius authentication. When we reboot everything works fine.

    Your english is fine ;-)

    Thanks for the link to the topic, it actually looks promising, at least Cisco is showing interest in it. With luck we may yet get a working firmware from Cisco for the WAP200 devices.
    I had started a topic while back ( https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2018682 ), but that didn’t go anywhere.
