Hello chrisbf1,
Welcome to the community!
The best way is still to push a standalone firmware to the AP. Eve if it has been reset to default I don't think it will go back to standalone mode. When an AP is connected to a controller, it is using a "thin firmware" pushed by the controller. To get it back to a basic AP, you'll need to have a standalone AP downloaded to it. Do you happen to know the IP of the AP?
Thanks,
