1. You can either reset all your Access Points to factory default and then run auto discovery and it will find them all and let you add them
Auto Discovery apparently Only scans the default subnet of 192.168.0.0/24
2. IP Discovery: Must be used for any other subnet, can only scan 24 maximum at a time.When scanned, the found Access Point don’t show up, you have to click the Access Point Discovery they should show up under the Auto Discovery tab
Personally i did the first option and factory reset them all and it worked like a charm. List all access point and gives you the option to fill in the new IP address for them all!!
If i hear anything else i will pass it on
Thanks

Dope wish I would have read this before making my post, I had started typing my message before you replied and I never went back to fresh the posts. For whatever reason Resetting each access point works, but it was a PITA, and sometimes I had to reset things more than once. Oh well, I'm all set for now so I can consider this project done despite the firmware bug.
