Neptune Apex Jr Reset Button

[griss]

Upgraded our internet and (even though we stayed with AT&T) had to setup a new network. I’m trying to change the network for my Apex and everything I’m reading says the reset button for the unit is on the bottom by the plugs/ports and is about the diameter of a paper clip. The thing is, I don’t see a hole anywhere on there???? Any help would be appreciated. Hell, I can’t even find a clear picture on the internet of where the reset button is supposed to be.

For clarification, it’s an A1 Apex Jr.

Why do you need to reset it? Weren't you using a range extender to connect it via Wi-Fi? It's probably that thing that needs a new setup.

I was able to find this manual for the jr but its for the EB8 version (not sure if that makes a difference?) - https://aquariumstoredepot.com/wp-content/uploads/files/APEX_Junior_Manual.pdf

In that, I found this with regards resetting the system. Says to reset is to restart the network setup through the Apex display module.

Not reset necessarily. But, to change networks it said to press the reset button for 6 seconds until the status light turns blue, then you can change networks.

With the new internet, I won’t need the range extender so, I was going to connect direct to the AT&T air hub.

Thank you. I’ll look into that.

Did the authentication type change?
Use the same SSID and Password in the new equipment for the local area net and the Apex should be able to get an IP address and function.
