I would like to confirm if it is possible to downgrade AP 1042 from CAPWAP to autonomous?
I want to buy the AP model AIR-LAP1042N-A-K9. But i don't sure if in the future it could support this feature.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jose,
here is the step by step procedure to convert CAPWAP to IOS
>> I request you to follow the below steb by step procedure to resolve the issue that we are facing..
- Initially console in to the LAP using the console cable and issue the Command ' debug lwap console cli' from the AP# prompt . (This give us capability enter the config mode of AP and use it like Autonomous )
Ap>en
Ap#debug lwapp console cli OR Ap#debug capwap console cli
- Now assign an IP address to Fast Ethernet interface of the AP which can be reach from the LAPTOP/DESKTOP . (Basically in the same range or able to ping and telnet)
AP#config t
Ap(config)#int fa 0
Ap(config-if)ip address
- Download the IOS image: www.cisco.com downloads for 1042 AP series.
Cisco.com --- Click on the Support tab in top--- Then click Download software------ Choose Wireless --- Then select AP from product list-Then choose the AP model - choose IOS image..
- Open the TFTP server (We used TFTP D32 ) (make sure that the TAR file's name is shown as in the web site, because sometimes it gets renamed to "Download .tar" and if that happens you need to rename). Browse the TAR file and select it and click ok.
- Go to enable mode of AP and enter the command:
- archive download-sw /overwrite /force-reload tftp://
That is..
If the laptop Ehternet interface is assigned the ip addess 10.0.0.4 with the mask of 255.255.255.0 and the AP fa interface is assigned the ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 and if we are running TFTPd32 on the local laptop.. the nthe server ip address will be 10.0.0.4.. finally the command will be..
AP# archive download-sw /overwrite /force-reload tftp://10.0.0.4/ 1140-k9w7-tar.124-25d.JA.tar
lemme know if this answered your question..
Regards
Surendra

As per the latest IOS posting on CCO - 12.4(25d)JA , it supports 1040 and 1260. So you can download the appropriate one for 1040. But not sure why the image for 1040 and 1140 are both named as c1140xxx ?? c1140-k9w7-tar.124-25d.JA.tar
