AP 1852I without ME software

RBrand — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 15:42:57 GMT

We bought for our school 3 Cisco 1852i lightweight APs to check if they could help us to wipe out our old wireless stuff (20 APs). But now we could not setup one as a controller because the download of the ME software is not possible for us. We have no contract with Cisco and to fill in the serial numbers doesn't work.

any idea?

Any help will be most appreciated .

thank you and regards

Robin

If you dont have a valid service contract then you cant download from cisco web.

Best is to contact to your supplier and ask them to provide the latest ME software for 1852 APs.

You need a Smartnet contract for your AP. Other possibility is to wait for security bugs and patched releases. Those you can request over a special email address. But the better solution, which also includes TAC support, is a Smartnet contract.
