   My WiFi access point fell off the washing machine due to vibration. Somehow, this triggered a factory reset.

     @aris Fortunately, I have a copy of all the config data, and a command line tool I wrote that can upload it and jailbreak the AP.

     @toba The reset switch is on the top side of the PCB, so I can at least see how it might have physically been triggered... It's working fine now that I've re-uploaded the config.

     @toba I have no idea how this thing is programmed, I haven't had to factory reset it before. I have a bunch more I could test, though.
