# FMS AP Firmware Releases

{% hint style="danger" %}
Firmware release 1.2.8 resolves a potential memory corruption issue. We’ve released this firmware update to mitigate this issue and recommend that teams update to this firmware release or newer ASAP to prevent potential issues in the future.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Attempting to reload firmware after upgrading to 1.2.x?**

Releases prior to 1.2.0 were encrypted with an outer key A with an inner encryption key A.\
Starting with release 1.2.0, releases are encrypted with an outer key of encryption key A, but, has a new inner encryption key B.

If you attempt to re-upload the 1.2.x firmware it will fail to decrypt as it was signed and encrypted with key A.

You must load the other 1.2.x → 1.2.x releases of your choosing in the right two tabs as those releases were signed/encrypted with key B.

***STOP!***&#x20;

Do you only need to connect ONE robot? You do not need to install the Access Point variant if you have a flat (single VLAN) network. Refer to [Practicing At Home](/overview/practicing-at-home.md)<br>

Only install the Access Point variant if you understand advanced networking concepts. Most users will not need this firmware variant as it is intended for offseason fields or teams attempting to mimic the field access point at home.\

If you understand and want to proceed, follow the [VH-109 to VH-113 Conversion](/access-points/vh-109-to-vh-113-conversion.md) guide.
