Known Issues:

- If you are upgrading from pre-v4.0 software, your password (after upgrade) will be the
first 8 characters of your pre v4.0 password. If you chose to downgrade, please ensure
that your password is no longer than 8 characters or you will be locked out of your unit.
- There is a rare condition where the datapath can lock up even though the RF path is good.
This can happen from a once a week to once every few months. It appears that this issue
has existed since v3.2 (and likely earlier). This issue is being addressed in v4.1.1 and a
temporary work around is available via the beta forum. If you have not seen this issue, you
are unlikely to with or without this fix. This is an AF24 specific issue.

Notes:

- Please update far end of a link before the near end
- Please refresh browser cache when logging into a v4.1.0 unit for the first time
- LLDP traffic is no longer carried over the RF link if inband management is enabled

About Firmware Updates:

Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.

On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device’s functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit’s overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn’t recommended and might not always be possible.

When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.

As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it’s best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.

Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device’s firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don’t miss a single new release.
