Bootloader CLI) to reload firmware.
2. Press and hold the RELOAD button for about 20 seconds until the
POWER LED turns amber.

3. Follow one of the procedures below to load a new AP Image to the

Download a New Image Using ScanTool
To download the AP Image, you will need an Ethernet connection to the
computer on which the TFTP server resides and to a computer that is
running ScanTool (this is either two separate computers connected to the
same network or a single computer running both programs).
ScanTool detects if an AccessPoint does not have a valid software
image installed. In this case, the TFTP Server and Image File Name
parameters are enabled in the ScanTool’s Change screen so you can
download a new image to the unit. (These fields are grayed out if
ScanTool does not detect a software image problem.)
