NWA-3560N Managed access point revert to Standalone

Hajah

Hi,

How can I upgrade the firmware of a NWA-3560N, in order to switch operating mode. The AP is in managed mode and I can't access it at all. I need to switch it back to standalone. Since it's running an old firmware, it needs a newer firmware that allows change operating mode. (see https://support.zyxel.eu/hc/en-us/articles/360002886239-Switching-your-Access-points-from-managed-mode-back-to-standalone)

I cannot follow this instructions as I do not know the IP the AP is on. I was told that this could be done via TFTP.

Any procedure available?

Hi @Hajah

Because NWA-3560N is in management mode now, it act as a DHCP client, please prepare a device which can be a DHCP server as well, for example: home router and so on, so you can check which IP address of AP by DHCP server ,when AP get the IP and then you can change the firmware to standalone mode by TFTP as below link operating procedure:
