Default it again with the power plug method? Maybe it's only at partial
defaults.

We had a cable on a tower that had come loose in some strong winds and
rubbed through the jacket probably shorting out a bunch of wires
inside the cat5 (not actually breaking). Remarkably, the Ethernet
port on the mikrotik was still negotiating 1G, even through there was
no RX Traffic from the AP. When we got the cable fixed, the EPMP AP
(1000 series) appears to be at default settings, but I can't log into
it. The Login page comes up, but it returns invalid user/password.
I'm trying admin/admin. The AP is at it's default name in a Neighbor
list, and it's requesting a DHCP Address which is not how it was
before the cable problem. SSH doesn't allow login either. Tried
setting the AP to different IP Addresses via DHCP, and can always get
to the HTTP Page, but can't log in.
We tried doing the default via power sequence on the tower before
replacing it, and that didn't seem to help. (Of course there's no way
to see if it actually worked either) Is there anything I should look
at before trying a reset via the reset button on the bench?
When we first got the cable replaced, the AP grabbed a public DHCP
Address, Could it have been hacked in the 10 minutes it was on that
public IP Address? Are there cambium scanning bots flying around the
interwebs. Or do the SSH Commands for login and changing the password
match some other bot scan.
