Recovery image, aka RCV, cannot "serve" WiFi.  
The sole purpose of the RCV is to hunt down the controller.

Dear Leo
Thank you for you kind answer
so I assume if I want to use IW 3702 as "usual" access point that can serve Wi-Fi I just use the Controller Based image. is it correct?

RCV is an "interim" firmware. 

CAPWAP image is the "full" firmware.
