      did you read the error and do what it said? Update the firmware on the AP before adopting a second time?

      Says that it has to adopt first then upgrade.

        Then you'll have to likely SSH to it and force an upgrade that way.

          I can try running a Custom upgrade.

                Assuming Windows 10 1903 or newer

                Open a command prompt
                SSH IP of AP
                creds are likely default at ubnt/ubnt
                type help to get command for upgrade
                get URL for firmware file from ui.com site
                type upgrade command with URL - watch shit happen.

                  This will likely help.

                    Or just factory reset and then adopt.

                    which is what ended up happening....

                            did you give it the correct Subnet mask?

                                  It's still flashing green, which means it hasn't finished the rest process.

                                      okay,
                                      I got an AP AC Lite to adopt.
                                      Changed IP address to Static and changed the IP of the Network and now it wont readopt.

                                      How bad did I mess this up?
                                      What can I do to fix it?

                                          you can't re-adopt. You have reset the unit first.

                                            I feel like the glass of Scotch is more a need then a want at this point...
