Downloading New Access Point

Software

When product enhancements occur for the Access Point 530, new software
can be downloaded to the access point by several methods. For more infor-
mation, see the Management and Configuration Guide.

The latest documentation and access point software are available on the
ProCurve Networking Web site, http://www.procurve.com.

HP Customer Support Services

If you are still having trouble with your access point, Hewlett-Packard offers
support 24 hours a day, seven days a week through the use of a number of
automated electronic services. See the Customer Support/Warranty booklet
that came with your access point for information on how to use these services
to get technical support. The ProCurve Networking Web site,
http://www.procurve.com/support

provides up-to-date support information.

Additionally, your HP-authorized network reseller can provide you with assis-
tance, both with services that they offer and with services offered by HP.
