We have only upgraded the firmware through the controller once so far and did this:
Yes, that is how you upgrade an AP from inside the controller. To get newer firmware, you have to update the controller.
Thanks Jared. This setting kinda threw me, I just assumed it downloaded the new firmware on its own

That setting simply auto upgrades the AP when it checks in and finds new firmware on the controller.

@JaredBusch -- He wants to know how to make it download the new AP firmware, not the new version of the controller software, if I am understanding the OP.

@JaredBusch Thanks im updating our documentation now. it seems like we are already 1 firmware version behind. Is there a way to be automatically notified when there are controller updates?
