I unboxed a new hexapod kit yesterday. It was working fine until I switched from AP Mode to Client Mode. Now the controller is stuck in Client Mode and will not reset. (Note: Performance was herky-jerky in Client Mode, so I wanted to switch back to AP Mode where it ran smoother.)
I have pressed the reset button on the controller but it does not respond as seen in the tutorial video nor does it reset.
I have tried to switch to AP Mode via the EZ Builder interface. The software gives a message to cycle the power on the robot. After turning the power off and on, the robot stays in Client Mode.
I am running Windows 7.
The EZ-Robot website says to seek community assistance before this can be turned into a warranty claim.
Thank you.
When you press the reset button, are you feeling/hearing it click? It is subtle, but there. What are you pressing it with? A pen? You might want to try something thinner like a push pin to make sure the case is not obstructing your access.

Yes, it was powered.
I did feel/hear the click. I was using the metal tip of a mechanical pencil.
Thanks.
The button is being clicked but, later today, I will go ahead and try a small paper clip when I do the 15 sec hold suggested by thetechguru.
Thanks.

Also - if you are changing the mode in the Web Interface, ensure either the password field is empty and OPEN is selected -or- the password meets the required length.
If neither of those are resolved, the mode will not change.
I will go ahead with the Contact Us.
Thank you for your help.
