What's an SQX?Just opened up the MicroTik SQX device recommended.
It's plugged into the power, and ethernet cable into my router. And there's no signs of life. No lights on the unit, no new wifi network created. Going to http://192.168.88.1/ as suggested in the manual is just a dead link.
Any tips?
