Software Upgrade HTTP Page

An HTTP upgrade requires you to load the image into the access point memory.
If there is not enough system memory for an HTTP upgrade, the upgrade fails. If
it fails, try using TFTP upgrade or upgrading HTTP again after disabling the
radio interfaces, shutting off high memory usage features (such as WDS), and
rebooting.
