Correct Settings To Upgrade R500 Hotzone Wireless AP

I have a R500 that was purchased several years ago and it has recently been having issues and producing error messages that appear at the same time that our wireless connectivity is reduced or completely lost.

The device is currently running software version 104.0.0.0.1347 and I would like to at least attempt an update if possible. The issue is that the settings under "Upgrade" do not allow a connection to be established with the control file.

###
TFTP
Firmware Server: fwupdate1.ruckuswireless.com
Port: 69
Image Control File r500_10000_cntrl.rcks
Result - [Control File] timeout after 1 retries

Web
http://fwupdate1.ruckuswireless.com/r500_10000_cntrl.rcks
Result - [Control File] may be bad

Local File
Downloaded the Single AP (https://support.ruckuswireless.com/software/1017-zoneflex-solo-access-point-104-0-0-0-1347-ga-softwa...) file and attempted to use it.
Result - bad firmware header magic

This is a personal AP and I currently do not have a support contract directly with Ruckus. I am not even sure if it's possible to have support for a single AP?

In any case, is there anybody who might be able to provide me with some assistance as to what the accurate settings should be to have the AP be able to auto-upgrade - or at least upgrade to something more recent?

I also included some error messages below in case those help.

Thanks in advance.
