as mention in link , the AIR-AP1262N-C-K9 autonomous access points must be running Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7) JA or later to perform the lightweight mode conversion. If not there will not get successful converted?

Hi Mandy,

I think it will not work :)

As per Cisco recommandation:

Access points must be running Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)JA or later before you can perform the upgrade.
