WC7500 LATEST FIRMWARE 6.5.3.2 and wac720 & wnd930
Hi guys I have a wc7500 with firmware 6.0.1.0 , i want to upgrade to latest version 6.5.3.2. But before to go to 6.5.3.2 the article say to go to 6.0.1R.0 . But i am not able to find this version 6.0...
Hi leofezollari,
Welcome to the community! :)
Download firmware v6.5.3.2 here, it is a .zip file. You will need to unzip it then you will find the firmware v6.0.1R.0.
Since your 6 WAC720 and 1 WND930 access points are managed by the WC7500, the WC7500 itself automatically upgrades the firmware of the access points connected to it.
If ever you are using a network management software (such as NMS300) which monitors the WC7500, then you will need to use the MIB for the WC7500.

Hi DaneA
I don't understand where i have to apply these configurations :
"The problem seems to be fixed by adding option vendor 43 and having the vendor ID and IP in hexadecimal format so hopefully all is well."
I have access on Control panel of WC7500 controller .

Kindly read pages 156-160 of the WC7500 user manual here about Access Point Discovery Guidelines.
If ever the suggestion does not help, I advise you to open a chat or online case with NETGEAR Support at anytime and the NETGEAR Support Team will provide you the steps and assist you in doing the AP recovery procedure.
