Here are the results of my first attempt. I have an ABPO that kept losing it's association with the tower. R&R'd the ABPO with a newer one and so far so good.
The bad ABPO is here in the NOC and I tried my first "fix" using the downloaded firmware "Wireless Bridge (Ver 0.01.06).rom" (1) I plugged the ABPO and reset the device using the reset button on the powerShot. (2) I was able to log into the unit and did receive the "upgrade" notification. (3) I performed the Method 1 and repeatedly received an error stating the file name was bad. (4) I tried the same file name from different directories with the same results. (5) I then moved onto Method 2 with the same results as method 1. (6) I opened simpleMonitor and scanned for the ABPO which it found. (7) Under "Tools" (simpleMonitor) I selected "Upgrade airBridge" and followed the onscreen menus. (8) Upgrade was successful NOTES: (1) During the upgrade I noticed that I would lose ethernet connection to the ABPO (2) Ironic behavior - when I first open simpleMonitor I notice a connection to the NOC AP. After five seconds or so, the ABPO loses it's connection to the AP. (3) Blue light continues to flash at a steady pace at about 1 sec on and 1 sec off. This was happening before and after the upgrade. (4) I have confirmed that the ABPO is running the Wireless Bridge (Ver 0.01.06).rom Once the upgrade was completed I am still unable to associate with the NOC AP for more than 5 seconds. So, my first effort at this fix did not result in a good solution. I have two (a ABPOtotal and another ABPO). More results later.
