cisco Lap1262n will not take firmware

[easton yoder]

i have a cisco AIR-LAP1262N-A-K9  that i am trying to convert to Autonomous.

i do not have the passwords, 

i have done the factory defaults but the default user name and password do not work.

boot into setup mode by holding down the mode button for 30 seconds, but when i try to send the firmware file it times out.

any suggestions ?

With the AP connected to the network boot into ROMMON; hold mode button for 25 sec I believe. Once in ROMMON issue the following commands to format the flash and install the autonomous firmware from TFTP.

set IP_ADDR 10.19.9.35  <---IP address on the network


set NETMASK 255.255.255.224  <---net mask of above IP


set DEFAULT_ROUTER 10.19.9.33  <---default gateway for network


tftp_init


ether_init


flash_init

format flash:


tar -xtract tftp://tftpserverIP/ap3g1-k9w7-tar.153-3.JAB.tar flash:


set BOOT flash:/ap3g1-k9w7-tar.153-3.JAB/ap3g1-k9w7-xx.153-3.JAB

thanks for that info.

everything worked expect the last command.

but loaded anyway.

another problem i have ran into is that the tftpd64 software only runs one time.

i reboot the computer it works fine the first time, loads firmware into ap, but after the first time,

when i try to do another ap it times out, and i have to run the tftpd64 software as a administrator.

i get this same problem on 3 different computers.

any ideas ?

Sorry, can't help you with tftpd64, I run the Solarwinds TFTP server.
