Firmware Question

TKOcow — Sat, 09 Nov 2024 02:19:01 GMT

This is a long shot, but I got my hands on a few AIR-AP1250AG-A-K9 access points. Got these from a private sale and looking to get the autonomous firmware files by chance?

Can't seem to find them on the website as these AP's are almost a decade old but might not be looking hard enough.

I don't have a Cisco Key or plan at all so Tech Support is unable to get me an engineer. But said here is a good place to start.

First post, hopefully I got all the labels and things right. Thank you to anyone who helps out in advance!

@TKOcow hi, this model is not supported anymore. you can try luck search in google. but cannot guarantee the integrity of the OS. or try contacting who had this model in past times such as local cisco partner.

The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series has been retired and is no longer supported.

End-of-Sale Date: 2012-01-30
End-of-Support Date: 2017-01-31

EoL notification: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/obsolete/wireless/cisco-aironet-1250-series.html

Cisco no longer supports this AP model, and its software image is also unavailable for download through the Cisco Software Download Center.

Your best option may be to search on Google or reach out to your local Cisco Partner, as they may still have a copy of the software for this AP model.
