Cisco Wireless :: Devices To Reach SA520W Radio In Main Building
Jan 9, 2013
We have a Windows server based network (15 wired computers) and four wireless devices (more to come)We are using a CISCO SA520W appliance in the main building as the perimeter Internet gateway / firewall / wireless access. It all works well.We have a second building too far away for wireless devices to reach the SA520W radio in the main building.The second building is connected via fiber to the main building (switch to switch). Several wired computers are connected to the switch in the second building.We want to provide seamless wireless connectivity as wireless device users move between buildings.
We thought to mount and connect another simple B/G capable wireless access point, via ethernet wire, to the switch in the second building. But we're not sure of the best CISCO/Linksys model to choose for this. The choice should work well with the SA520W configuration and be relatively simple to configure in that environment.We're also unsure of the steps to configure a seamless wireless experience for the roving wireless device users.

Ive had this 655 for about a year now and it has been rock solid. But, there has been one slight issue.
And and all wireless devices can see each other and all wired devices can see each other....but the wired cant see the wireless and vis versa.
The wireless devices (W7 and Vista laptops) can see the wired devices when they are plugged in. But my phone and Galaxy Tab can only see whatever wireless devices there are (cant be plugged in). Even my wired Samsung TV cant see the shares on the Tab or wireless laptops (and vis versa). So, its certainly not a firewall or OS config issue.
Now, I made sure they are all connecting via the main SSID and not the "isolated" Guest SSID....but its acting like the main SSID is isolated from the wired LAN somehow.
Firmware 1.34. IPs for the wired and wireless devices are all in the 1.2 - 1.50 range.

We set up a 1941 Router with the Cisco Configuration Professional Tool. The VPN Tunnel works and i get an IP Adress from the pool. But i cant reach any devices in the VLAN10 Network. Do i forget anything ?
Here is the config from the Router:
version 15.1
parser view CCP_Monitor
secret 5 $1$FnN7$Qr.mbJbPOuOH7Te6MD1.I0
commands configure include end

An 1841 is conencted to the internet by DSL, it works fine. I have added it to the 10.98.8.x subnet off a 3750 switch.When I connect other devices to the same switch port, I can ping/browse to them fine, but when I connect the 1841 I can only ping it from the 3750, not another subnet connected to the same router.

Need to boost signal coverage on an SA520W (even though it is very good, building floor is too clutterd and too darn big.Even using a 2nd unit to extend things may not get it all done; However, searching the site tells me there is an external aerial (one of...) in the SMB range, and it uses "N" style connectors. Looking at the specs on the SA520W, it makes no mention of what sort of connectors those are (Happy to admit I am not a cable guy... well not co-ax anynore at least!).

We've got an SA520W that's performing nicely, but we need to extend our wireless coverage to a new area of the building (we can get a network cable there). What would be our best option? Just a second SA520W, or are there are APs we should look at?

I have an SA520W firewall, and am implementing a new AP541N. On the SA I am using port 4 to connect the AP. Trunking is on with Vlan 1 and 25. Connecting the AP I am able to use VLAN1, however when I assign a new VAP using Vlan 25, I only receive IP addresses for VLAN1.

Any AP that would be able to wrielessly repeat traffic to my SA520W (so that the AP has no ehternet wiring at all). First off, there is no WDS option anywhere in the SA520W, so there is no method for which to simply create a WDS link between the two devices. Yet the Factory Default Settings table in the SA520W Admin guide indicates there should be (search on WDS in the PDF to find this). both at the lack of integration of these Small Business Pro devices, and moreso at the fact that I was told that these two would be compatible for wireless-only repeating. I've been messing around for hours trying to get something to happen. Maybe I'm just missing something obvious as this is my first time trying to get an AP to talk wireless-only to a wireless capable internet gateway device (the SA520W).

I have a sa520w router I configured w a vlan for the wireless and port 2. Now I would like the switch to handle both traffic from the default lan and the vlan. I tried creating a vlan on ports 28 and 10 but I cant get it to work. I have my other lan on port 27. Ive read something about switch layers? not sure. so I want port 10 to route to the vlan and other ports go to the default lan.

just wanted to know if the SA520W can wirelessly bridge (Workgroup bridge, WDS, etc -don't care which) to either an AP541N or AP1252... using WPA2-PSK
the 2 seperate examples would be
Internet --->SA520W --(Wireless 30 feet) --->AP541N -->ESW-540-24P-K9
internet --->Sa520W --(Wireless 30 feet)----> AP1252 -->ESW-540-24P-K9
internet --->AP1252 ---(Wireless 30 feet) ---->SA520W-->ESW-540-24P-K9
in other words do you just go into the config of the SA520W ... enter in an existing SSID name and the WPA2-PSK password and it joins that wireless network. lastly does the SA520W support POE to the switch above or only the AP541N

After some searching I see many people using power injectors or switches that supploy PoE. I am building a lab for the CCNA Wireless and currently have an old Cisco 3550 PoE switch and a 2106 Controller that I got at a steal of a price. My question is, The 1142 can use the 15.4 Inline Power from the 3550 even though it is not the 802.11af standard correct? If it doesn't then I will need to order a power brick.

I have a cradlepoint ctr350 router. I have a steel building garage abou 75 ft. away from where the router is stationed. I have no problem getting a good signal at the doorstep of the steel building, but once inside I have nothing. What would be the best way for me to get wifi inside of the steel building without having to run a hard line?

designing a wireless network for an apartment complex. The complex is shaped like like an rectangle, fairly small, maybe 100 feet on the ends and 300 feet long on the sides. There are 130 people that we are assuming may have about 3 devices each that they will connect to the wireless network, potentially simultaneously, as this is in a college environment. We have plenty of bandwidth and down/up speed. We are running 30 megabit down and 10 up. I am planning on having a router with two access points centrally located in an apartment and extending the network out with antennas in each direction from the access points with Omni directional antennas. The Access points that I am planning on using are Cisco WAP200 with maybe a Linksys router, as the router should not have more than 10 connections on it. I need something that will not crash after 10-15 users connect to it because it jams up from overload.

We have 5 pcs Cisco Aironet 1142 Access Points without controller at the same building. SSID is same for all of them. Our problem is client connected via wireless disconnecting randomly and continues working after a few seconds. IOS versions are same for all of them you can find detailed information about versions and configurations below.

I have a project where I need to connect two building using a wireless bridge.I cisco specialist told me to purchase two 3500 (AIR-CAP3502P-A-K9) access points and an external antennas.The problem I have is these access points will need something to control them. If the access points will be in separate buildings will I need a controller on either side of the bridge to get them to work?What other cisco AP device capable of 300Mps dual band that are autonomous and can bridge between two buildings that are a 50 yards apart?

I need WIFI inside a giant steel Quanset hut. There is a good signal right outside. Is there a way to do this with one device? I was wondering if I could put one of the antennas of a WRT54G through a hole to the outside and then set it in repeater mode. Theory being it would use the outside antenna to pickup the signal and the inside antenna to broadcast.

We are leasing an office space from a building that has it's own network center. This center can be used by each office/company to either house their own networking solutions or utilize their internet access if you plan only to use cloud servers or NAS servers. Our company (4 employees) is using this network center only for internet access with all of our data stored and accessed in our cloud service.We would like to access the internet wirelessly, which building does not provide. We were given one port and shared the link through the use of a switch. So my questions is would an access point add wireless connectivity without any information (ISP?) provided by the network center? I am not sure yet if we will be purchasing a router/AP or device made for to be used as an AP.

I've never been very good with networking, and this is my first post to these forums, but essentially, what I would like to do is build a wireless network throughout my house, and fortunately it is a new build and I have already had hard-wires installed to the first floor and basement, with the primary connection point being my office on the 2nd floor.What do I need to do, hardware wise, to have a single wireless network throughout the house instead of 3 different wireless routers or something like that?

We have cisco wireless network throught the whole 8-floor building on Cisco WLC 4402 and Cisco LAP-1242 AP. There are no coverage holes, but sometimes clients are flapping between two access points at different floors with serious loss in throughput. Is there any method to limit roaming between different floors in the building?

I live in a new apartment building which means a lot of concrete. The internet (fiber) enters the house at the beginning where the modem is hooked up to my Linksys WRT320N. From there two cables run through the house:1 to the home office, where two computers are connected through a switch.1 to the living room, where the Xbox, blue-ray player are connected through a switch.I also have a wifi network running from my WRT320N, but as it is at the beginning of the house, there are some black spots in other parts of the house. I tried to fix this with a Netgear repeater, but that keeps disconnecting.
What I want to do know is place a second linksys device in the living room at the end of the already existing cable that will also broadcast a wifi network, but I want this to be exactly the same Wi-Fi network as I already have. What I want to achieve is that I can walk from one end of the house with my iPad, streaming a video, to the other end of the house and that I always stay connected to the internet and that my tabled just picks up the strongest broadcaster, basically the same as with a mobile phone.

We are using a SA520W as our primary router and have a fiber connection attached to the default WAN interface. We would like to improve our uptime using a secondary internet connection on the optional WAN interface.
We have bought a dovado tiny 4g router for this other connection. It acts as a dhcp server but the Cisco router does not get an IP from the dovado router. The router works as expected when connected to a normal computer. But somehow the cisco router doesnt get an IP.
I have also tried to set a static IP for the Cisco router but that didn't work either. The dovado router is setup do deliver ip in the range 192.168.0.2-254

I have installed my new E4200 and it works beautifully. I have several wirelss adapters and a few wired connections through powerline adapters. I also have a second VPN router attached to the 4200.I can see the wireless connected devices with the associated IP addresses. If I plug a laptop directly into the Cisco, I can of course see it.However, I can see none of the devices attatched to the powerline devices? I have a securty cam connected via the powerline and want to know the IP address. I checked with cisco technical support via chat and they said it is impossible. I have used 2 previous routers with the same configuration and can see all devices.

Iv got an "old" dir 655 laying around as my secondary router and found out it had an USB slot for share port.In another room of the house Iv got a media center and an Usb printer. Can I use this dir 655 as a wireless bridge from my main router, so the media center and the printer can be connected? So both low level streaming and shared printer with share port.Or do you need to be connected directly to the dir 655 to use the usb and share port?

I purchased a SA520W for my company, and i have some probles for configuring firewall. I want to deny access to facebook, youtube and twitter but not for 4 hosts which needs this websites for work. I tried to configure content filtering > blocking URLs but with this solution, I deny acces for all users, So, I tried to make IP v4 rules :
The 4 hosts who may access to these websites are 192.168.50.124 to 127
Example :
FROM Zone : LAN
TO : WAN
Service : Any
Action: block always
Source hosts : 192.168.50.32 to 192.168.50.123
destination hosts : 66.220.158.11 (one of the facebook's ip)
but it does not work. So, I am looking for an other solution, or maybe my rule is not correctly configured ?

I have a network where I have two wireless routers wired to a third (main) router. I want to connect a third wireless (Linksys WRT 54GL) to the main router,but I want to connect wirelessly (without any cables). I have tried to bridge it,ie disabling DHCP and assigning a static IP address which is in the same range as the main router but still if i connect my laptop using the third router I cant log onto the internet and worst still I cant ping the main router. The main router is the one that is connected to the proxy server. My connections are as follows,from the wireless antenna the cable goes to the proxy server's wan port,the main wireless router is linked to the server's lan port.My server's LAN ip is 192.168.0.1 and the main wireless router is 192.168.0.2 I have two other routers which are wired to this main wireless router and their local IP addresses are 192.168.0.4 and 192.168.0.5 respectively. I want to connect a third wireless router to the main router but this time without using a cable. What i have done so far is I have assigned it the IP address 192.168.0.6 and I have disabled DHCP,all the other settings I have put the same as the main wireless router.

I have a wireless audio system using several Apple Airport Express boxes currently communicating using 802.11g through my Verizon FiOS MI424WR (Actiontec) router. I also have wireless security cameras and several laptops on the same connection. I occasionally have audio dropouts I suspect due to wireless bandwidth limitations. I have a Netgear WNR3500 Wireless-N Gigabit router that I would like to hang off of the Verizon router and move the Airport Expresses, which are 802.11N capable, to its Wi-fi connection. This would keep my audio streams separate from the video and other wireless traffic and take advantage of the 802.11N.I in configuring the router/s to facilitate this arrangement. I have numerous Windows machines (XP and Windows 7), mostly hardwired, on my main network along with a NAS containing my audio library. So all devices need to be able to see all other devices.
