Cisco Wireless :: AP 350 Placement Under Floor?

May 13, 2002

I have a specific application where wireless service is required for one desk in a large room with a very high ceiling.  The room is 'acoustically contained.'  Additionally, the antennae needs to be out of sight.  I was considering placing an AP under the access flooring (and under the desk) with the antennae mounted above the floor directly above the AP.  trying to place an atennae at floor level rather than ceiling height?

Cisco VPN :: GETVPN KS Placement With 2901

Jul 2, 2012

Where's the ideal place to put the KS? My current setup is 1 KS, 19 GM. The KS sits BEHIND a GM, so all other GMs have to come through one GM to get to KS.Now, I have purchased two dedicated KS routers. I configured one today, and placed it right on my WAN. My WAN is a L2 Ethernet domain, so i just provisioned a switch port in the WAN vlan, and away we go. I copied RSA keys over from the current KS, configured redundancy and the two hooked up, saw each other and it seems to be good to go. For the ACL, I put in an exclustion for my two KS to talk to each other:

deny ip host 192.168.250.40 host 192.168.250.41 (Old IP, New IP)
deny ip host 192.168.250.41 host 192.168.250.40.
 
I used a test router and pointed it to the new KS, it registered without a hitch... HOWEVER about two hours later (my 7200 second timeout) I lost ALL my branches. My 18 other GM were still pointed to the OLD IP only, they didnt have the second IP configured yet. In a hurry, I quickly disabled the redundancy configuration on the old KS and had to go to each GM and do a 'clear crypto gdoi' on each one to get them to re-register. There were no log messages about not being able to rekey, no log messages about dropped peerings, nothing. Once I did that, everything returned to normal.
 
The Question I have...
Would having configured the redundant KS caused this problem? Would having one KS behind a GM and the other Coop KS in the WAN make a difference?

Relevant config from existing KS, 2801:
crypto gdoi group GETVPN_GROUP
identity number 1234
server local
  rekey retransmit 60 number 2
  rekey authentication mypubkey rsa GETVPN_KEYS
[Code]...

Way To Connect Router On More Than One Floor?

Aug 6, 2011

I have 3 devices I need to connect to my router 2 floors under me. I was wondering if there is a way that i could run one Ethernet cable from my router downstairs to the devices and not have to constantly plug the wire into the device i am using. Mainly is there like a hub for this that i could use to connect all three to the internet all at the same time using one wire running from my router.

Getting Internet From Basement To Second Floor

Mar 11, 2012

So my router (apple airport base) is in my basement. I need to get the internet to run all the way up to the second floor because the wireless N network really only works well in the basement and main floor. Unfortunately our builder never wired us ethernet ports along with our phone jacks. What would be the best solution without running new wire? Is there a way to convert the phone jack wires to ethernet? Do one of those power line converters work well? I would really like to avoid having to drill for new wires.

Wifi Signal Is Of Poor Quality On 3rd Floor

Dec 11, 2012

I have a wireless router on the ground floor of my home which is wired to my PC on the 3rd floor. The wifi signal is of poor quality on the 3rd floor. I cannot move the router to a different floor since all of my connections are wired through the home into my networking room (on the ground floor where my router is). I wish to add a media receiver to a different room on the 3rd floor that is not wired already for networking. Streaming video files wirelessly to the media receiver from my router will not work because as stated previously the signal quality is poor on the 3rd floor. My mobo on my computer has ASUS wifi GO. Can I enable the wifi go on the mobo of my PC (located on 3rd floor) to connect to the media receiver (also on the 3rd floor) for streaming? The media receiver will also have an internet browser so will I be able to connect to the internet as well if it is networked to my PC and my PC is connected to my router on the ground floor?

I basically want to keep my PC connected to my main router for high DL speeds and also have my PC networked wirelessly to my media receiver using the on board wifi go. If possible I'd also like to be able to access the internet on the media receiver via the PC.

Optimal Location And Possible Router For 2 Floor Town House

Nov 6, 2011

I currently have two laptops, a PS3, one desktop (technically two, but right now its not working, hoping to make it wired, but we will see), a smart phone and an Ipod touch. The first few are used the most though. I have the router currently downstairs in the kitchen in the corner (I know terrible place) unfortunately it was the only place beside the room upstairs, which tbh I don't know why we didn't do, which is still towards an end to the house. The middle most part of the house would be in between the kitchen and the dinning room on the first floor, although it doesn't have a great place for the coax jack to be installed. The other room would be mine upstairs. So the question is; is the router better off upstairs or down stairs. Also the router is a Linksys WRT54GS so its only G sadly. I'd like the best signal strength as possible spending the least amount of money as possible. Sadly I game (PS3,Laptop,Desktop) which also would make it awesome to have some of these wired, but theirs no great location to get the best of both worlds. If I had to choose it would be my desktop to be wired which is why my room for the router would be nice if its a good place for the signal.

D-Link DIR-825 :: Signal Strength Is A Little Weak On Main Floor

Jan 5, 2012

I have a DIR-825 in my basement at one end of the house and it works great.  My problem is the signal strength is a little weak on the main floor at the other end of the house.  I would like to add a second access point to cover that end of the house.  Do I need to get another DIR-825 and wire it to the original or is there another option?  I obviously don't need all the features of the DIR-825 for the 2nd AP, but I cant find a less expensive option that will still allow me to use both bands.

Netgear WNR3500L Wireless Router / Wireless G Delivers Faster Broadband Than Wireless N?

Oct 29, 2012

I have a Netgear WNR3500L wireless router. I assume it's v1 because on the back it doesn't have "v" anything. Firmware version V1.2.2.44_35.0.53NA.When I connect using g I get 22+Mbps download speed. When I connect using n I get 10 Mbps. I've tried using both WPA2 only (laptop reports 130 Mbps connection I believe) as well as the combo WPA+WPA2 (laptop reports connection of 117 Mbps).Broadband download results don't change - they stay at the 10 Mbps level. I've fiddled with some of the settings on my laptop's wireless card - but the results are the same.For now I'm just trying to figure out where I should focus my investigation and fiddling efforts - on the laptop or on the router.

I have a setup involving 3 clustered AP541 running off a sg300 switch. The wireless network setup VAP has one entry for vlan 1 with station isolation disabled. Is there anything more I need to do to allow one wireless client to ping another wireless client - am I missing something - i assume this is possible.Needless to say wireless clients can ping non wireless clients and vice versa quite happily. Everything is running with factory default settings more or less.

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Students Unable To Join Wireless With Personal Laptops

May 1, 2012

I have a WLC 5508, AIR-LAP1142N APs and a SSID for students to connect to who bring their own device. I am still testing this and it has not been rolled out but I am running into some serious issues with joining the network. I am authenticating them through a RADIUS server (2008 R2). Problem: many of them cannot connect because they are lacking the certificate.
 
1. What is a good setup for authentication in a BYOD environment

2. If my setup is good what can I do to allow kids to use their computers on the wireless either without the certificate (which I know is unlikely) or what do I need to have them do to connect. I am hoping it does not involve hard wiring and getting the certificate from the server.

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Internet Both Wired And Wireless / Access To Server Everything Dead

Oct 24, 2011

have a Cisco 5508 controller (version 6.0.199.4) that when I enable global multicast mode it will work for an hour or two and then it will kill the network.  All internet both wired and wireless, access to server everything dead.  I then have to directly connect to the service port and disable the global multicast mode.  Then two reasons for enabling it are Docs2Go and LanSchool both require multicast to be enabled.  I have it enabled on our wired network and it works OK there.  ted.

Cisco Wireless :: 2500 / 5500 - Wireless Access Point Identification By Clients

Apr 30, 2012

We have recently been given this unusual task.  The setup is a series of CAP3502P access points, and a wireless controller (either 2500 Series or 5500 Series), as well as other standard network infrastructure.
 
In this network, the client (mobile/wireless) devices must be able to detect when they change what access point they are communicating through, while also requiring a seamless transition.  Ie, if the client device is communicating via access point A, and displaying the application menus for A, when the user walks to the area services by access point B, it must detect that sot he application can display menus for B, without the user having to select "B".
 
Is there a way for the client device to detect which access point it is using and provide that to an application? Or alternatively a way for a host service residing on a server to get that information from the wireless controller?

Cisco Wireless :: Request For New Firmware For WET200 / Wireless Ethernet Bridge?

Jan 7, 2010

i am placing a formal request to Cisco and to the firmware development team to create a new-and-improved firmware release for the WET200 wireless Ethernet bridge, a product that is still being produced, shipped, and sold.  I purchased the product about one-and-a-half years ago and have enjoyed its performance.  There have been, however, some flaws with the device, namely the following:While configured to use WPA2-based security, DHCP-related traffic is not passed from a router/gateway's DHCP Server to connected devices on the WET200.  Current firmware release notes indicate this was a known issue and was, supposedly, fixed; however, due to the level of problems customers are reporting, it appears this may have only been resolved, if at all, with security configurations of WPA, WEP, or OPEN.  It has not been fixed for customers using WPA2-based security.When I originally purchased the WET200 and configured it to use WPA2-based security, while it, initially, did have a few problems connecting to my router/gateway, it, eventually, did connect and stayed connected for, approximately, one year.  However, in September of 2009, it suddenly lost connectivity with my router/gateway and has not been able to establish a connection since, even after reinstalling the latest firmware revision and after several soft and hard resets of the device.  I tested the WET200 with another router/gateway, only to experience the same issue.  Other devices are connecting to my router/gateway, but, not the WET200. The last firmware update for the WET200 was dated back in July of 2008.  Currently, it is January 2010 and since these issues have been known for quite some time, it is unacceptable that the firmware for this device has not been updated in such a long time, especially when there are known issues with the WET200's firmware.  Such lack of support is forcing me and my clients to stop using these Cisco-based products and purchase competing hardware, something I would prefer not to do; however, without better support, I and my clients do not have a choice.  Expecting me and my clients to use an inferior form of security on the WET200, such as WEP and/or WPA, until a firmware update is issued is unacceptable, especially when that update has not been released in over one-and-a-half years.  Such lack of support is especially unforgettable when my clients and I are looking to purchase new networking equipment.  In the past, I would not have hesitated to purchase a Cisco-based product; now, with this experience in mind, I am finding it very difficult to recommend to a client that he or she should invest their organization's finances into Cisco-branded equipment.  Proper, professional, timely, support of your hardware is expected of your customers, especially if you wish them to remain loyal customers.  I have noticed that other similar devices, albeit, higher-end devices, have had their firmware updated, more recently, compared to the WET200.  I assumed this meant that the firmware development team was updating all firmware on such devices.  So far, I have been disappointed in the lack of firmware updates for the WET200.  While I understand the possible desire to update the higher-end products, first, as a professional whose job is to research, recommend, purchase, install,configure, secure, and maintain both the enterprise-level and small business-level devices, I highly encourage Cisco not to overlook their small business products when the firmware development team is updating firmware for any Cisco products.  Deficiency in the support of one strata of Cisco-based products is reflective upon the support of any Cisco-based product and is not easily forgiven by Cisco customers, such as myself, when new and additional hardware needs to be purchased.

Cisco :: No Dhcp Through Wireless Controller WLC2100 And Wireless Bridge WET546

Jan 19, 2011

Due to lack of wires we decided to extend our network by using WET546 bridge by linksys. Ideally we looking to create topology like this:
 
(Computer)--eth--(WET546)---wireless----(AP/WLC2100)---(router)---(Internet)
 
WET546 successfully authenticates and looks pretty healthy on controller (see below) , however neither of computers plugged to WET546 was unable to obtain ip address from dhcp server , nor working with static ip. I was under impression what it might be related to some default policies on WLC2100. Logs (warning) on WLC2100 looks clean.

Cisco Wireless :: 2500 / Wireless Guest Users Cannot Ping If ACL Is Applied

Sep 16, 2012

This is the first time I am trying my hands on wireless gears. I have 2500 WLC and 1142 AP (which I converted from Standalone to LAP).I have a layer 3 POE switch where i am using port 1 for the WLC which is a trunk port.

Port 2 is for the AP using access vlan 111

Port 3 is trunk port going to a router where i am running dhcp server for the VLANs which are as follow:

VLAN 110 -Corp Wireless (10.1.110.0/24)
VLAN 111 - AP-Mgmt (10.1.111.0/24)
VLAN 999 - Guest (10.1.101.0/24)
 
I wanted to block the traffic from the Guest VLAN 999 but when i apply the ACL on the Guest Interface created on the WLC, I dont see any pings going across and neither I see any hit counts on the deny statement as if the ACL is never applied.

Cisco Wireless :: Manually Add Access Point To 2504 Wireless Controller

Sep 18, 2012

We have a 2504 Wireless Controller and it works great!We currently have 6 Access Points (Aironet 1252) connected.We just added the sixth one a few weeks ago and with a properly configured and fully functioning Wireless Controller, it was super easy.Now, I have been assigned to add another Access Point, but at a remote site.The plan is to have up to three or more APs at this remote location and we want them to talk back to the Wireless Controller.We have plenty of licences on our current Wireless Controller.Do do not want to spend the funds for another Wireless Controller and more licenses.
 
1. How does one manually add a Aironet 1252 to the 2504 Wireless Controller
 
2. If the AP is on a different subnet than the Wireless Controller, how does one get it registered?
 
3. The best for last: Can a Aironet 1252 talk to a 2504 Wireless Controller over a WAN link?

Cisco Wireless :: Setting Up Wireless Repeater Using 1242AG Access Points?

Jul 4, 2011

I have problem setting up wireless repeater using Cisco 1242AG access points. Here is the setup and problem - The location has 2 1242AG APs  and a WLC (2206) which will be used by PDAs. One of the AP was converted to Lightweight AP and is wired. This AP is up and working and PDAs are able to connect to it.  There is 1 WLAN and it uses Local EAP (LEAP) as authentication. Layer-2 security is configured as WPA/WPA-2 with 802.1X authentication. Under AAA servers Local-EAP is enabled and a profile (with LEAP enabled) is used. Local users are configured for login. As said PDAs are able to connect and it is working without any problem.
 
WLC (LEAP with local users) -----> LAP ----> Repeater AP
 
But the 2nd AP has to be configured as repeater was configured to repeater mode (refering to the document) and was placed. The WLC can see a client (with APs MAC address) but it is probing. The AP is still Automonous AP. Also username and password is configured for authentication. But still the radio on the AP is not up and it is in reset state.

Cisco Wireless :: AP1020s / Getting DHCP On A VMWare Virtual Machine Via Wireless?

Jun 3, 2008

I have a WLC 2006 running 4.2.130 code with AP1020s.I also have several users that have VMware machines that run various flavors of Linux, etc Virtual Machines on Windows XP Pro.
 
The Windows XP works fine on the wireless.  It is the VMWare Virtual Machine running the Bridged ethernet connection that have problems.
 
The problem is that the Virtual Machine doesn't get  a DHCP IP address from the wireless network.
 
If the user plugs into the wired network all works fine.I have done some captures that show the DHCP requests going out with the MAC address of the wireless client, but no DHCP replies.
 
It looks like the WLC is seeing the additional DHCP requests from the MAC address of the wireless adapter and dropping them.The same DHCP server (different scopes) are used for both wireless and wired clients.
 
The DHCP server shows NO activity when the Virtual Machine tries to get a DHCP IP address.The DHCP server is a Cat 6500 running IOS v12.2(33)SXH.  DHCP activity was monitored using debug IP dhcp server events/debug IP dhcp server packets. The VMWare Workstation tried is 6.02-6.04.
