Firmware ap3g2-k9w8-tar.153.3JBB not compatible with CiscoAironet aircap2702i-B-K9

[fslatwork@gmail.com]

I have a 2504 WLC series running 8.1.102.0 software version. Also I have 14 AIR-CAP1602E-A-K9 running the ap1g2-k9w8-mx.15.3.3-JBB software, and joined to the Cisco WLC in a production environment. Recently I bought 20 Air-Cap2702i-B-K9 running ap3g2-k9w8-153-3-JD software version, and I want to downgrade the software of my new acquisitions to ap3g2-k9w8-mx.153-3-JBB according to the compatibility matrix provided by Cisco to my current WLC's software version. The picture describes my problem. Any help will be highly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Yes.  Download the latest 8.2.X.X and it should enable/allow -B Regulatory Domain.

Thanks for your answer, but that is not an option for my right now, because I think it demands a restart of my controller that is production right now, and will stop the 14 associates AP.

Is there another option where I don't need perform changes on the controller? Thanks in advance

Nope.  Not possible.

@supportpune the IOS image you have referred to is an autonomous IOS AP image (k9w7) and will not work for a lightweight AP (k9w8).  Lightweight APs must run the same image version as the WLC they connect to and will normally download that image from the WLC.
