Thank you for the reply.

Hi Wizbon,
Good day!
Based on the product detail information you shared the HW version is 1. So I guess, you can update the Firmware of the unit to the latest (manually), just ensure that the downloaded file has been unzipped or extracted, and use the .tar file for the said upgrade process.
If you are getting dropouts, can you share the LEDs of the AP, whether is it locally managed /or Insight, the placement, and the LAN connection setup?
Kind regards,
