Hi,
I have installed newest version of firmware on Aironet AP1832i. I noticed some issues on android devices connecting to access points. Since it is not only 1 device on 1 location but on several of them and various access points (of same type AP1832i), I am guessing that 8.10.x version has some bugs.
I wanted to downgrade this to 8.8.125.0 version, but when I used HTTP transfer mode on Mobility express, it shows, that number of APs initiated 13, but non of them has been updated. In fact when I used console cable, and rebooted one of them, I get message that version of firmware is 8.10 and downloaded firmware is 8.8 (obviously lower), so skipping update/downgrade...
How can I downgrade firmware on AP1832i?
I found something that I can use command:
archive dw-software /reload tftp://<ip of tftpserver>:/<path>/<whichfirmware?!?!?>
when I wrote which firmware, I also need clarification. In zip folder I have several of them:
ap1g1,ap1g4,ap1g4-capwap,ap1g5,ap1g2,ap1g3, apname_decoder.inc, ap_supp_list.inc, c3700 and version.info
which of ap1g is for my access point?
P.S. also to mention that I don't use physical controller to control access points, but one of access points act as a controller...
Looking forward for your replies.

Thank you for very informing documentation which I already saw, that is why I chose previous firmware version 8.8, to avoid most of problems. The problem is that it downloads firmware and starts sending to access point, and first access point which is receiving the update, it gets stuck on "predownloading" process, for more then 30 minutes, which is not normal.
It looks like somehow it does not proceed to installation to flash and reboot the AP, and then rest of AP should follow.

Hello vtravalja,
This AP works with autonomous?
Because if you work with a WLC, only WLC need upgrade/downgrade.
