Hi
I have some 2nd user Aerohive AP330’s and Hive Manager appliance. I would like to use these to provide a wireless network for a church ( a registered charity) which is being refurbished to provide support services for homeless people. Our own services to install and support the implementation will be free of charge so I cannot afford to spend much on this. What is the most cost effective route to obtaining updates please?
TIA Stephen.

HiveManager can only work with the newer TLS versions, it does not work well with TLS 1.0/1.1. This means the APs need to be on 6.5r3.0 or later for HiveManager to work with it properly as older HiveOS versions are still using the older TLS versions. You can however jump from 6.2r1 to a later version, you don't have to go stepwise like we did with 6.1r6 to 6.2r1. I'm sorry for the confusion, please let me know if I can clarify anything else.

You'll need to go to 6.2r1 before you can move up to 6.5r10, there are a few stepwise upgrades in the older firmware versions. I will email you the file you need directly, you will want to navigate to the IP address the AP is currently using in your URL bar at the top of the browser, and then log in with the APs SSH credentials (defaults are either admin/aerohive or admin/Aerohive1, or you can find the password the device is using in Device Management settings under Global Settings). You can upgrade the firmware from here as well, then it will be able to take the next upgrade.
