Title: Unable to Upgrade from C1 FW303NA to FW304
Post by: ahmedm on April 20, 2014, 06:08:36 AM

Hi,

I bought the DAP-1360 from Egypt to use it as an AP. I have the C1 revision. Earlier before, I upgraded the firmware which was International (That suits radio bands where I live in Egypt) to NA (which suits North America radios). Since then, I'm stuck to NA firmwares. I could upgrade till DAP1360C1_FW303NAB04.bin (3.03NA). I need to upgrade to DAP1360C1_FW304B01.bin (3.04) but each time I get image error when I try to perform an upgrade (or even restoration of non-NA firmwares).

Since I decided to use the DAP-1360 as a repeater (Ranger Extender), the mismatch of radios in my Wireless-Router and the (NA) radios in DAP causes a pulsating disconnection from the wireless for both (Signal distortion).

Any help please?

Well, I managed to fix it by recovery console :D

Just note that default IP is 192.168.0.50 not 192.168.0.1 (make sure you've configured LAN manually to this subnet)
