Cisco Wireless :: Turn On Radio On 1522E AP With 2504 WLC?
Oct 17, 2012
I have a 2504 WLC with two 1522 AP's one is Root the other Mesh the 802.11b/g/n/ Admin Status says Up but the Operational Status says down. How can I turn this on? When I change the Admin status to enable I get a "Error in Enabling Admin Status"
Im using WLC 2504 with vertion 7.4 and 2600 LAP's the access points are working fine when its isolated from the live network, but once its in the live network the AP radios resetting (APs won't reboot) and unregistering from the WLC in random intervals,
We have 6 1262 APs and a 2504 WLC. 5 of the 1262 appear correctly with 2 radios. One of them shows 1 radio. See screen shots below showing model numbers and interfaces on the AP with one radio available (All other 1262s show 2 radios as normal). Tried resetting the AP to factory default, but same result. Do I have a defective AP?
I have a Dell Inspiron 8500 Laptop with the Dell Truemobile 1300 WLan mini PCI Card.I have tried uninstalling and re- installing the Driver from the Dell website. I have install Network Stumbler and it keeps saying "No Aps Active.I Have MZC and Dellwirless turned off so that they will not conflict with NS.I have tried the FN + F2 keys and neither worked the FN and other keys work just fine.I have just completed a fresh install of Windows XP Pro as the old OS got corrupted.
I'm configuring a 2504 wireless controller with # of 1142 APs, wondering is there an option to turn off the WLC/ APs during after ofice hours? such as turn off power/RF options etc
I've recently installed a Cisco 2504 WLAN Controller with (5) AIR-LAP1042N-A-K9 Access Points. Everything is working fine as far as the APs connecting to the controller, and clients being able to connect to the WiFi and get network access, etc. The one problem I have is that one AP's b/g/n radio is not active.
If I go to the WLAN Controller management web page, and look at the Access Point Summary, it shows that I have five (5) 802.11 a/n radios active but only four (4) 802.11 b/g/n radios active. I know which AP is affected and clients can indeed connect to that radio using wireless 'B' but not 'N'.I have only one WLAN configured on the 2504 (WLAN ID 1), and one AP group name (default-group) so there are no special groupings of APs. I have been through every page of the Controller management page with a "fine tooth comb" and cannot find any place where I could accidentally be turning off the a/n radio for a single controller.
The network consists of 133 RAPs/MAPs/1131 APs and all joined the WLC. When I check the 802.11 a/n radio tab, I see only 129 APs and the 802.11 b/g/n tab I see 133 APs. I found out that 4 LAP1131 is not showing in the 802.11 a/n tab. I tried resetting the AP thru the WLC and still the don't see it in the 802.11 a/n tab.
I've a 2106 WLC and the software is upgrade to 7.0.220.0. There are 3 APs with external power adapter work normally on it. Here is the problem: There is another AP with external power adapter has join the the WLC successfully. But it can not enable the radio 802.11b. Following is the error message on CLI
(Cisco Controller) config>802.11b enable AP001d.a1ef.b5f4 Cisco AP has not enough in-line power to enable radio
I've just bought an access point AP1141N for my small business but unfortunately there is only Radio 0- 2.4G available through web interface. It is working fine but I would like to have access to radio 1 (5Ghz) as well.
We have two different entities we support and both are set up as autonomouse wireless groups. The SSID is the same though so they can use their 7921's between floors and buildings. The problem we have had is that the phones on the first floor were getting the IP's of the organization on the second floor. When you view the AP's on the phone the ap directly next to it on the first floor (the one its suppose to talk to) is listed first, The strange thing is that shows it is connected to the right AP (the first floor one). The AP on the second floor is also listed but its about third down. After the phone sits it will actually change IP's but not all of them. Their were a few phones that took about a half a day to get the correct IP.
My question is how do these phones grab their ip's? I know how DHCP works but I am needing to know specifically how the radio works on the 7921's. What is the boot up process? It appears that it must cycle through each channel starting with the highest and loop through a process in descending order: compare ssid's and then authenticate if possible. I am assuming it is seeing the second floor first because initially they all get the second floor ip. The second floor is on channel 60 and the one it should connect to is on channel 36 (We are using 802.11a). That's how I came up with my descending channel theory.
I have a westell DSL modem/router supplied by Frontier. It connects only to the telephone line and via cat5 to my main router, a cisco EA6500. Everything seems to be working fine, I just would like to understand a few things.I disabled wireless radio on the westell, enabled it on the cisco, so I have just one WIFI network active.I know I am not supposed to have two DHCP servers active, but I did not know how else to be sure the CISCO would get a good address, so I left DHCP active on the WESTELL, and also enabled it on the CISCO to provide service for the rest of the net.The WESTELL admin interface is at 192.168.1.1, and assigns addresses in this range.According to the WESTELL, the CISCO is at 192.168.1.27, which I assume was assigned by DHCP.The CISCO has an admin interface at 10.144.224.224, and assigns addresses in this range to all the other devices on my net.As I say, everything works.I can access both router admin pages with a browser on my main 10.144.224 network, and can ping both.But I don't understand why it works.What rules allow me to talk to the WESTELL admin page from the CISCO private network, but do NOT propagate the DHCP access which is at the exact same IP address.
It is great that it works. But should I really have disabled DHCP on the WESTELL and assigned a static address to the CISCO? Or is this situation actually provided for in the rules, not just a lucky accident that it works?Why does the scanner say that the CISCO DHCP is "Unknown" rather than Authorized or Unauthorized? Is there something I can or should do to get it to be "Authorized"? I can ping 192.168.1.1, but not the 192.168.1.27 (times out), and yet when I ping a non-existent 192.169.1.3 I get "Reply from 192.168.1.27: Destination host unreachable".
I am building a BOM for a customer and I need to present cheaper options than 3500 or 3600 APs. I thought of these two models but I don't know what models of antennas to pick.1602 is a 3X3 MIMO with 3 antenna connectors. How many 2.4 GHz and how many 5.8 GHz antennas should I pick for each radio?2602 is a 3X4 MIMO with 4 antenna connectors. In this case I suppose there are 2 connectors per radio.
When I view web page of 1410 radio is show ethernet enabled and up but radio as disabled and down. I have tried to enable but to no avail. Is this a sign my radio has gone bad?
I have cisco LWAPP 1242 AP already joined controller but 802.11b/g shows down on the radio 0 interface. I tried to enable it but it comes with an error" Error in enabling admin status". I have resetted the AP to factory default settings and even replaced with NEW AP.
I am running the upgrade tool on Aironet AP1230B-A-K9. I can't join the controller by using the upgrade tool. the error is "AP does not have Supported Radio". What radio is the upgrade tool or controller look for on Aironet 1200 series? This AP is running 802.11b. However, I have several APs which the same model is running on the same one controller. The controller is model 4402.
I am facing a problem with my access point AIR-LAP1141N-E-K9, which was converted from LWAPP to autonomous, radio Interface Dot11Radio0 is going to reset down state very frequently.AP is connected to WS-C3560G-24PS (POE) switch. [code]
Running vwlc 7.3.101 and encountered a smaller issue.When you enable / disable a SSID, all AP's reset their radio interfaces... causing everyone to drop their connection.
Not sure if it's new in WLC 7.4 code, but I now see "Dual-band radio" section everywhere in addition to "802.11a/n" and "802.11b/g/n". My dual band APs (for example 2600's) show up under both 802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n as in the past. So what is this new category "dual-band radio" for then?
We are using the CISCO-DOT11-ASSOCIATION-MIB in a Cisco Air AP 1140 device with release 12/4(21a)JA1 to find out the radio type of wireless client (B/G or N). The clients in question are of type Wireless N and Wireless B/G. We are querying cDot11ClientDevType and cDot11ClientRadioType but the relation between the returned values and client/radio type is not clear:
2 devices returned: cDot11ClientDevType = 102 ==> pc4500Client(102) - client with a 4500 radio and ClientRadioType=2==> ccxClient(2) - CCX- compatible radio1 device returned: cDot11ClientDevType = 1==> unknown (1) – unknown and ClientRadioType= 1==> unknown(1)
Questions: On a Cisco Air AP 1140 device
What OID needs to be polled to find if the client's radio type?What value is returned by this OID if the radio type is B/G?What value is returned by this OID if the radio type is N?
Recently installed a 1262N AP in autonomous mode. Have both 2.4 and 5Ghz radios running- Both on separate SSID and VLAN. I think I have 5Ghz channels using 40Mhz bands (bonded) but when I do iperf throughput test I only get about 25Mb throughput. I am sitting within 10 feet of the AP. When I switch to 2.4 I get around 60Mb and that's not bonded. I have tried multiple interfaces on my client side laptop I'm testing with since I thought maybe it was a quirky card or driver but I get same results. Am I doing something wrong here? My laptop shows a 300Mb connection to 5Ghz and 144Mb on 2.4Ghz but I know that's not true thorughput so that's why I was testing this to see what I was really getting and now I'm confused.
lose network connection on htc one v. At settings, mobile network says radio turned off. Could I have done something to cause this. I`ve had this phone for 4 months. This problem just started.
I am wondering if anyone has seen this before. We have about 50 AIR-LAP1242AG-E-K9 access points connected to a WLC5508 running 7.4.100.0. These were all being used as autonomous APs previously and were converted when the controller was installed. About 12 of these have a lovely feature where their radio interface goes down at random. The radio is still in enable mode but the opertational status is DOWN. It seems to happen particularly when there has been a power outage and the AP rejoins the controller. All of the other 1242s are fine and never sees this problem. The APs are all on power injectors.
Once the radio is down, the only way I can get the to come back online is by doing the following:
1. Set the radio admin status to "disable" and apply
2. Turn off CDP
3. Reboot the AP Wait until the AP is back online and registered on the controller
4. Enable the radio admin status and CDP.
If I do not remove the CDP setting I cannot bring the radio back to "UP". I know we had previous issues with autonomous 1242 APs that did not like CDP being enabled. Have I perhaps got a bunch that are like that? Despite these having operated as autonomous APs they are AIR-LAP1242 from the factory.
