Upgrade the AP with V2.1.11 standalone FW and then do a restore factory default settings. then follow trhe below sequence.
Firmware upgrade sequence for WNDAP360 from 2.x:
V2.1.11 -> V2.1.12 -> V3.5.20.0 - Correct sequence.After loading the V3.5.20.0, open the AP GUI and Apply "NO" for "Buisiness Central Enabled" settings to use the Accesspoint in standalone mode.
