Cisco Wireless :: 1041 Or 1141 Won't Go Faster Than 39Mbps
May 21, 2013
I have two access points that I recently purchased from ebay. I updated them both to c1140-k9w7-mx.152-2.JB and I have been unsuccessful at getting either of them to connect at faster than 39MBps. After scouring google for answers I found several with the issue of not using the correct WPA2/AES configuration and that was me. However after changing the configuration, I am still unable to connect to either of the APs at faster than the 39Mbps. [code]

why I am only able to connect at 39Mbps (often 5.5Mbps) to my Linksys E1000 Router? Residential. Wood Frame/Stick home construction. No other devices connected to router. <10 feet from E1000 Router. Line of sight (nothing in between router/laptop). New Dell Inspiron DW 1501 Wireless-N WLAN Half-Mini Card.
E1000 Network Mode: Mixed
Channel Width: Auto (20MHz or 40MHz)
Firmware: 2.0.01 build 08
At times I have seen it flash to 52Mbps but immediately drops to 39Mbps or lower (26, 5.5, etc.).Sales prop indicates up to 300Mbps. Where is the other 90% of the connection speed they’re talking about? OR is 39Mbps expected?

I have AIR-AP1141N-A-K9 access point, but can not get over 130 Mbps speed. Looking at the manual it appears that I need to set "channel width" to 40-above or 40-below, but it only accepts 20. Is the 2.4Ghz radio limited to 20Mhz? Since the specs indicate that it can do 300Mbps, I must be misunderstanding something.

I'm trying to turn off the LED on a Cisco Aironet 1141 p/n AIR-AP1141N-A-K9. This is a standalone AP and from the CLI I'm issuing this command:
ap(config)#led display off
The LED does not turn off after typing this command. If I do `show run' it shows up in the config so the command was accepted. Is there a different way to turn off the LED? I'm running IOS Version 12.4(21a)JA1.

I have 2 Cisco 1141 aironets access points.
I've fallowed this tutorial: [URL]
I have an Ubuntu server running free radius authenticating against an LDAP server. Now I'm able to log into the AP via ssh with my LDAP credentials.
What I can't figure out is how do I setup the AP so when people connect to the AP's wireless they are prompted to use their LDAP credentials.

We have about 15-20 APs out in the field, and at random they seem to disassociate from the WLCs and re-associate within a few minutes. We have not looked into that entirely yet, but we are having an issue with a few. Sometimes, they will disassociate and after a few hours reassociate.

I have 2 SSIDs mapped to 2 VLANs (other VLANs are configured, but not used) Security is set to WPA2
What do I need to change to get higher connection speed? What is the highest for this model? Why won't it let me select 40Mhz channel width? Telnet says on 20Mhz available (GUI says it is in "Least congested" mode even though it is not)

I set up one AP-1041 that runs standalone IOS. No controller. I have three more that I want to copy the setup configuration over to. I have the right document, but which commands will get my set configuration from AP one FTP'd to my computer and how to copy that configuration back to another AP of the same model. This way I will only need to tweak a couple settings on the additional AP's instead of starting from scratch.

I have an aironet 1141 with multiple v lans configured, all with wpa2 but I need to put mac filter on only one v lan, so I follow this manual: [URL}. Basically is mac a ACL and applied to sub interface. So, I can associate to the AP, but no one can transmit or receive . If i remove the ACL all works fine.
My config:
access-list 700 permit <maclist> 0000.0000.0000
access-list 700 deny 0000.0000.0000 ffff.ffff.ffff
interface Dot11Radio0.130
[code]....

I have an existing setup consisting of:
Windows Server - doing DHCP for private wired/wireless
Cisco 1141 Autonomous WAP with only private wireless access.
ASA 5505 (with very basic licensing)
HP switch
The customer wants to have guest WiFi.
The guest WiFi is going out to the internet via a seperate VLAN/interface on the ASA. Can the 1141 do DHCP for the guest WiFi? Or do I need to do it via the ASA?

I have a wireless network using the cisco ap 1041 converted into the anonymous. however it seems like every morning or evening I have to attached it back to the SSID all over again. it will not give me an ip address. I also would have to put the encryption key in again. I am using WEP 40 bit.

I have done a wireless site survey at a library and one AP541N will cover everything pretty well. They do have one spot where the radio strenth is not quite as strong, but you would never buy a second access point for just that one area. I did the SIte Survey using a 541N Access point.
Here is my question. I see that the Aironet 1041 is very similar in price and according to the documentation has a stronger power rating and higher antenna gain. Why would I not buy an Aironet 1041?
We are just mounting to a wall and are planning on using the pwrin4 to provide POE for whichever we buy.

We are experiencing problems with Apple Ipads on a large scale network that we install and maintain, the Ipads seem to join the network with no problems (bit slower than laptops etc) but will then disconnect for no apparent reason at random intervals. We have ran laptops on the same AP's and in the same area and no similar probems occurred, we are using IOS Cisco 1041's and 1042's, we have seen one of the Ipads's sitting quite happily on a 1042 2,4ghz radio and then it disconnected and went to the 5ghz radio. We are getting similar disconnects on the single radio 1041.

I'm setting up a Cisco Aironet 1141 (standalone mode, AP) to handle wireless traffic in the office. It gives out 2 mbssids, one of which authenticates domain users through a RADIUS server and places them in an appropriate VLAN (RADIUS options 64, 65, and 81). The other is a guest ssid that uses WPA-PSK and places users in the restricted guest VLAN. Physically, the AP is connected to a 3750 PoE Catalyst, to which RADIUS and DHCP servers are also connected. AP, SSIDs, RADIUS and EAP authentication all work. The configuration given below is a working configuration. People do get authenticated and do get placed in the appropriate vlan. The problem is that, once authenticated, the "Obtaining IP Address" phase on the client hangs and most clients timeout without getting an IP address. Given that the DHCP server is on the same switch and a test simple ASUS Wi-Fi IP gives out the same scenario (except the multiple VLAN) at the speed of light, I don't think that it's a problem with the network connections between clients and the DHCP server. After reading some topics here, I realized that probably other communication will be extremely slow, as well, but haven't tested that for sure. Clients are all non-Cisco - smartphones, notebooks, etc. Most of them are 802.11G, not N.

How do i get the 12.4 code to assign a dhcp address to my ethernet interface from my server? I deleted the default config on the 1141 and searching has not turned up anything useful.

I am trying to setup a Cisco Aironet 1041 on my network for WiFi authinentication and access and I do not have a Radius server and was wondering if it is possible to configure the 1041 to authenticate with just WPA or WPA2 and a PSK without any of the other configurations? This setup is only going to be temporary untill I can get the appropriate infrastructure in place to facilitate the Radius server setup I really want in 12 to 18 months from now.

why my wireless connection on my laptop is significantly better than my wired connection to my desktop. Internet ran just fine on the desktop at my old apartment; got to the new place, and now it's having serious issues.
After working on this problem for a while, I have come to the conclusion that for some reason, I am getting serious packet loss, consistently, at a particular "hop" on my desktop, which is not present on the laptop.Here are the Line Quality tests that illustrate the problem better than I could ever describe it in words:
Laptop: Line quality test packet loss and latency | DSLReports.com, ISP Information
Desktop: Line quality test packet loss and latency | DSLReports.com, ISP Information(and it appears they both fail the initial test, but the laptop connection runs just fine).
So at that one specific hop (ae-1-0.cr0.chi10.tbone.rr.com, I have no idea what that means), my desktop connection suffers serious packet loss while the laptop is more or less OK.This discrepancy is evident in the quality of connection on my desktop, while the laptop runs just fine. Here, in summary, is what I have tried:
-Going wired through laptop using same cables, ports, and router as desktop: laptop performs flawlessly.
-Updating router firmware, NIC card drivers, and Windows on the desktop
-Full virus disk scan and boot scan using Avast; full malware scan using Malwarebytes; Windows disk defrag
-Disabling QoS packet scheduler
-Performing netsh /flushdns; winsock reset; ipconfig release, renew
-(Temporarily) disabling Antivirus program
All of these actions together have made the desktop connection USABLE... however it is by no means an acceptable level of quality for a cable connection, and not nearly as good as any other in the apartment gets using the same connection, whether wired or wireless.The only visible difference I can find between the laptop and the desktop is the packet loss that is present at that one hop in particular, which is extremely debilitating for the desktop's connection.
Further info:
Desktop specs:
Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller NIC (onboard on the mobo)
Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 SP3
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, 3GHz
2 GB Ram
Plenty of Disk space
Router:
Belkin F5D9230-4 Wireless G Plus MIMO Router
Here is the previous thread that details my troubleshooting efforts thus far; as the question has now become something entirely different, I thought it more appropriate to make a new thread.

Just got cable and new hardware and been running bandwidth tests. I know wired is always going to be faster than wireless but was wondering if there were things I can do to see where the bottleneck is.
I have cable internet with a sb6120 modem and the asus rt-n56u router. When I go wired, I get 40+mbs down and when I go wireless I'm getting approx 20mbs down. Dont get me wrong, this is more than adequate but was wondering why the huge difference. I'm not anywhere close to the theoretical max.
The rt-n56u is on firmware 1.0.1.7f which is current. My desktop uses the WMP600n and my laptop has the Intel 5100 AGN built into it - both have updated firmwares.

We just replaced our Cisco 1240 AP in one of our shops with a Cisco 1141 AP. This is not controller based.
We use several wireless (infrastructure mode) auto diagnostic tools which connect to the AP. We also have many laptops which run the diagnostic software.
We had no problems with our 1240AP. With our 1141, we cannot connect to the wireless tools if both the laptop and the tools are connected to the 1141. If I connect one to the 1240 and one to the 1141, they can see each other and work fine. IF they are both connected to the 1141, they show up as connected in the AP, they can ping each other, but the software does not communicate.

I just bought a new WRT120N Router. It worked perfectly wired and wireless.But my old laptop burned, and the new one came with a Atheros AR5B93 Wireless Network Adapter, which is Draft-N compatible.The laptop connects to the router fine, but using only the G type. When I set the router to use only 802.11n, i get a message from Windows, like: "Windows was unable to connect to the network."because the N configuration is much faster than the old G.

am having speed issues on the wireless side of my WRT54GL v1.1 router.When I hook up a laptop to the wired port, am getting roughly 5.4mps down when wired, but only 1.2mpbs down on wireless. I am tried doing a factory restore. I have made sure that no QoS is in place. I have tried multiple devices to make sure it is not something on the device side causing this problem, but all the devices perform just as poorly on wireless but as well on wired.

I just got an E1200 router and connected wired to my win 7 machine, Im clocking in the single digit ranges (~8 mbs) download but on my dusty old win xp laptop wireless, Im getting 20 mbs (max speed from isp 20 mbs). Wife's Mac laptop wireless, same speed. What is going on? I updated the firmware, tried altering some settings based on other entries here suggested (WPA-personal, channel to "6") but no effect.

I have the AE1000 adaptor on my wife's computer and direct wired on mine is the E2000.The e2000 is set to 2.4mhz and when connected to the wireless network, my wifes ae1000 shows it is connected at 144mbps.When I change the e2000 to 5.0 mhz and then my wife connects to the internet, she shows the ae1000 at 16-53 mbps. When I switch back to 2.4 she shows 144. I thought that when the e2000 is connected at 5.0 she should have a "faster connection".
