I am seeing that it is suggested that the FUS be upgraded to 1.9.0.0 and wanted to see if you have any steps in doing this?
thanks

Don't touch the controller. It might say 1.9.0.0 in the filename but this equates to 1.0.20 in the controller. I know confusing. (Don't ask!)

Hi Leo,
thanks for the reply! that sounds good to me. One more question. Is the field recovery version of 7.6.101.1 going to be ok with the 8.0.140.0?

Should be fine. Upgrade to 8.0.140.0 and don't stay too long on 8.0.121.0 (I've seen a lot of weird stuff happening with this version of firmware).
Read the Release Notes as well, it should mention what legacy APs are supported (and are not) with the code.
