I have an AS-1289 switch which I have been using for over ten years to do the automatic selection of my antennas and it allows me to select a different antenna, if needed.  I operate remotely and it works great.  For no particular reason, I decided to upgrade the firmware and I screwed it up.  I think I didn’t wait long enough for the new firmware to load; the switch still selects the antenna but will not allow me to connect via the Internet.  I can connect with a USB cable but that will not allow me to get to the programming and switching that I need.  I might add that I liked to use the temperature sensor to monitor the temperature at the remote site   I’ve tried reloading the earlier firmware.  I’ve tried power cycling.  I’ve tried different Ethernet cables.  If I do an IP search, all my remoterig/microbit equipment shows up but not the AS-1289 antenna switch.  I think what I need is a factory reset but there is no button for that.  Can anyone help me solve this problem?  John,  AD8J

PROBLEM RESOLVED
In the process of removing a bunch of 12V wall warts and switching to a distribution panel to feed all that equipment, the power was shut off to the AS-1289, the modem, the router and an expansion switch for about an hour.  When everything was powered back up, I could connect to the AS-1289 antenna switch again.
