    READ ME FIRST - AP COMPATIBILITY This„XAP-310„is„compatible„with„the„Luxul„Wireless„Controller„for„fast,„easy„ configuration„and„deployment„of„wireless„networks„with„multiple„APs. Note:nIfnyou’llnbenusingnthisnAPnwithnanWirelessnController,nreferntonn thenQuicknInstallnGuidenincludednwithnthenWirelessnControllernfornn setupninstructions. If„you’re„using„separately-purchased„Luxul„APs„or„installing„this„AP„along„„ with„a„Wireless„Controller„in„an„existing„Luxul„deployment,„you„may„„ need„to„manually„upgrade„some„of„those„APs„firmware„before„installing„„ the„Wireless„Controller. Luxul„APs„running„firmware„version„5„or„later„(like„the„one„in„ this„package)„are„Wireless„Controller-compatible„and„can„ be„used„with„the„Controller„as-is.„When„purchasing„Luxul„ APs„for„use„with„the„Wireless„Controller,„look„for„an„orange„ “Version„5„Firmware”„sticker„on„the„box„to„avoid„the„manual„ upgrade„process.
