Hi Stijn-ver,
When you set back the WNAP320 as a standalone access point, what was the current firmware version of it? Was it on v3.5.5.0?

After a successful downgrade of the firmware, be sure to reset the WNAP320 back to factory default settings then reconfigure it from scratch. Then, check if the WNAP320 will work again with the WC7520.
