Trying every method to convert a AIR-CAP1702I-A-K9 AP from Lightweight to Autonomous and am having no success whatsoever. I connect the Ethernet cable to the PoE port on the back of the AP and straight to my laptop. I then configure the Laptop with the IP address 10.0.0.2. I then hold the mode button down before plugging in the power and release my finger from the button after the message to do so appears on the screen. This is suppose to send a broadcast from the AP (10.0.0.1) to the tftp server with the Autonomous code ap3g2-k9w7-tar.153-3.JAB.tar. I was told to append the "default" to the file name as ap3g2-k9w7-tar.default ... I did this, yet no luck. I am out of options. I even tried the other method of doing the following:-
debug capwap console cli
conf t
int BVI 1
ip address <IP ADDRESS> < MASK>
archive download-sw /force-reload /overwrite tftp://10.0.0.2/ap3g2-k9w7-tar.153-3.JAB.tar
Unfortunately, still nothing .... any ideas please
