Resetting Cisco AP

thehourman

Hey guys, how do I reset the AP back to default configuration?
We have been trying to convert the AP 3502i from autonomous to LWAPP, but no success.
The method we tried are these:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/1289156#1289156 However, we got an error message "%Error opening tftp://10.0.0.2/ ap3g1-k9w7-mx.124-25d.JA1 <Timen Out>"
We could ping the AP and the ping from the AP to laptop was working as well.

We tried this: Sam's wireless: Surveying with a 3502 (followup post)
But the AP is unable to find the tftp server.

Is there any way to go back to LWAPP mode?

I'm not sure of that method you post there.

On this page, there are procedures to perform a manual reset of the device, scroll down this page:
