WAP4410N stops randomly responding

Hi Randy,
We have a situation with 20 4410N's They are connected through a 2960 switch. They runned for about a year with no problems. We use the WiFi system with 10 cisco wireless ip phones, several workstations (5-10) and a few mobile devices.
Three weeks ago we took 10-15 iPads in commission (almost equally divided over the AP's), since then the trouble started. Several accesspoints stop randomly responding a few times a, day. We updated to the latest firmware (2.0.4.2), but that did not solve the problems.
Were using 3 SSID's WPA2 encryption and fixed IP's for the AP's. If there is anything more you need to know please contact me. This is a urgent problem for us! If we can't get a hold on this we have to replace all the AP's by other ones.

Hello,
On January 25th Cisco released version 2.0.6.1.  I have upgraded several units to this firmware and it has resolved the random not able to connect issue. 
Try upgrading to that version, it is availble here:
http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=282414137&catid=278875243&softwareid=282463166&release=2.0.6.1&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest
If you still have the issue after upgrading, do a factory reset and manually reconfigure the device.
You also mentioned that you were using iPads.  Sometimes Apple's devices have trouble with WPA2 AES, so you might want to try switching the encryption to WPA-Personal (TKIP), or WPA Mixed, so that TKIP is also available.  Forget the wireless network on the iPad and then try reconnecting.
Usually the upgrade will resolve the issue, if not try the reset.  If you are still having trouble after that call the SBSC at 1.866.606.1866 and we can open a support case for you.

  • Apple TV 2 all of a sudden has trouble streaming.  I stream from my desktop computer's iTunes for movies, and tonight it started stopping randomly mid movie and saying it wasn't connected.  Any ideas?  Router?  ATV dying?

    Apple TV 2 all of a sudden has trouble streaming.  I stream from my desktop computer's iTunes for movies, and tonight it started stopping randomly mid movie and saying it wasn't connected.  Any ideas?  Router?  ATV dying?
    It just says not connected, and as soon as it bails to menu, it connects again and will play for another minute before doing the same thing all over again.

    Hello David, 
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your Apple TV is having trouble streaming videos from iTunes on your computer. This symptom could have a variety of causes, and I'd suggest the following initial troubleshooting steps. 
    In addition to restarting your devices (Apple TV, computer, router), try the tips in this article, starting with "Check your home network:"

  • Access Connections main service stops randomly

    Hi all,
         I have a T60 at work with the latest version of Access Connections.  Over the last few weeks, my Access Connections will randomly show that it disconnects in my system tray.  However, I am still connected to my company's network.  Our tech group came out and said that they are seeing instances of the Access Connection Main service just stopping randomly.  When I go into Services, I can verify that it has stopped.  This happens anywhere from 20-60 mins after logging onto our network.  It also only happens when I am docked to my docking station, not when I am wireless.  If I have a tech remote into my machine and restart the service, it starts up just fine again. 
    Any thoughts as to what might be causing the service to stop like this?  It doesn't present a problem if I stay docked...but if I undock and try to go wireless, it doesn't do the auto switching because it's frozen...so I always have to reboot.

    Hi,
    in this situation make following:
    - go to services and open Properties of both AC Services and in the Recovery tab set all 3 options to "Restart the Service"
    - In case this should not change the situation, then go to "Log On" tab and select "This account" and insert your name and password.
    In this situation would be also good to check the Event log if there is any notice, why the Service stopped working.
    Any info is appreciated.
    Cheers

  • Nokia N97 Mini recorder stops randomly

    why does the recorder stops randomly during a recording? My previous NOkia 5800 Xpressmusic also had this problem. I never reach the maximum recording time of one hour. My mobile phone is lying next to me and not receiving any calls or messages, with 'silent' profile active.

    Hi, I'm having some similar problems with mine also, i was having a look on line just now and came across the link below, infor on how to hard reset your nolia n97, I haven't tried it as of yet as mine works on and off, on at the moment, but if yours is completely kaput, it could be worth a try. Hope it works for you, good luck

  • Audigy LS stops random and functions properly after reboot

    :Audigy LS stops random and functions properly after rebootM I am on a P5P800 motherboard with a SB Audigy LS in PCI2, running Windows 7 Beta and using version 5.2..200 of the driver.
    I had the same problem on Windows Vista (both before and afer SP):
    ? at irregular intervals the sound card stops working. Mediamonkey does not detect the SB speakers anymore and none of the other programs can get audio to play.
    All it takes is a system-reboot.
    I know there is a later version of the driver, at least drivermax tells me there is a newer version. Trying to install this newer version results in the blue screen.
    Any ideas where to look for the solution: I am sure that the chipset drivers are fine and I also tried switching the sound-card in from PCI3 to PCI2.
    Help is wellcome: it is annoying most to have no sound randomly !

    Restart the computer.

  • Itunes stops randomly in  Lion

    itunes stops randomly in  Lion ... any thoughts welcome ...
    thx

    Tried reseting the PRAM and that seemed to take care of the issue, see: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
    Also noticed iTunes tracks playing in Spotify had the issue and it seemed to persist after the reset - I ended up unlinking Spotify from iTunes and now it seems to work again in Spotify as well.

  • IPod80GB stops randomly

    My bloody iPod is stopping randomly, then the apple symbol appears for 30 seconds and then it reverts to the main menu. I guess it is reseting itself or something and it's driving me nuts. I have had it since Oct/06 and this problem may have started after I upgraded iTunes 7.5 but i'm not sure. I have also restored the bloody thing twice already. Could it be a battery issue? I often use the iPod in the car with an FM transmitter so it is always fully charged. Therefore I'm wondering if the battery is toast which is causing the problem.

    I had the same problem with my 5G 30GB iPod, it would freeze in the middle of tracks and reset itself (funniest was when it reset itself WHILE it was resetting). I had to send mine to Apple, and they replaced it. I suggest you contact Apple and hopefully they'll do the same.

  • Videos Won't Play and Songs Stop Randomly

    *These problems are on my iPod Nano 3rd Generation, Blue, 8GB*
    I added a video to my iPod, it will play on iTunes, but when I select it to play on my iPod, all I get is a black screen.
    Also, with a few songs, even one that I downloaded from iTunes, they will stop randomly in the middle of the song and go on and play the next song.
    I never had this song problem with my old, 1st generation nano.
    What should I do?
    Is it faulty? Should I return it back to the shop?

    If you downloaded iOS 6 - YouTube is no longer included in the iOS.
    If you are not running iOS 6 - go to Settings>General>Restrictions and see if you restricted YouTube.
    If it isn't restricted.Swipe from screen to screen and look for it. If you still can't find it....
    You can reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
    For the videos - quit the app completely and then restart the iPad and try again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or ... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Or...Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. When the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.

  • Preview Songs Stops Randomly w/ Win 7 & Solutions Not Working

    SInce the 10.6 itunes update I have had issue with preview songs stopping randomly after between 7-20 seconds.  I have tried the recommended solutions on other posts to flush DNS cache files as well as repointing to open DNS server (8.8.8.8) to no avail.  I can preview music on other sites, notably Amazon, and other devices in the house can preview songs in itunes without issue including iphone, ipad, and mac notebook.  I am running WIndows 7 Home Deluxe version on Comcast gateway modem/router.  Given other devices work with itunes I don't think this is a router issues, and since my computer can preview music on other sites I don't think it is my machine.  I think there is an issue between Windows 7 and itunes that started with the 10.6  update.  I am very frustrated.  I have contact Apple Support via email with no reply.  Even went to local Apple store and they hadn't heard of the issue and wanted me to bring in my computer.  I am a cycle instructor and really depend on the preview song feature to find and purchase music and really need a solution.   PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE if you have a solution I would really appreciate a reply.

    Doublechecking. Have you tried resetting your iTunes Store cache?
    Go "Edit > Preferences". In the Advanced tab, click the "Reset cache" button shown in the following screenshot:
    ... and then click OK.
    Restart your iTunes, and head back to the Store. Are you getting full previews now?

  • WAP4410N stops responding very often

    Hi
    We found that they stop responding to any clients so they cannot get IP addresses, but we can ping the devices and enter the administration page. The only solution is to reboot the AP. we replaced for a new one one week ago under warranty period, we have also applied the latest firmware Version: 2.0.7.4 . I still find the same issue again today , any solution? as I checked this forum that many people complaints this product. Cisco support, any solution for me?

    What is the serial number of your unit? Also could you look at the syslogs and attach an copy of them to this post.
    Thanks

  • WAP4410N stops responding with 2.0.0.5

    Any news on this? I have the same problem. After a day or so it just stops responding.
    I recently bought 3 of these to my office.
    Running 2.0.0.5 etc.

    Same problem here as well. I hope Cisco will offer a solution ASAP! I was thinking to RMA this product before warranty expires.

  • 2 different WAP4410N stops responding

    Still having issues. I reconnected 4 laptops today on 2 different WAP4410n APs. The user will let me know if they get disconnected. Yesterday I even reflashed the firmward on them. Also in order to reconect to one of the Waps I had to cycle the power.
    The laptops are different
    One is a Dell Latitude c840 w/ Links wireless card and the other is a IBM t41 i believe.

    Just checking to see if there has ever been a resolution to this issue. I have several of these units set up and am experiencing this same issue. I  start them and they work fine for a few days, then nothing. I use WIFI Analyzer on my phone or tablet and they are just not available. If I login to the web interface and reboot the AP it starts working again. At times I have noticed that on WIFI Analyzer I will see the signal suddenly appear normal for one refresh cycle, then drop to nothing for a while, then suddenly reappear. I have screen shots of this is you think it would help.

  • WAP4410N stops responding with SRW2024

    I have the same problem with my two WAP4410N connected to my Cisco SRW2024 Gigabit switch.
    It appears that there would be a time where the PHY's between the WAP and the switch are hung.
    The lights on the Gigabit switch are constantly flashing.
    It is until I disconnect and reconnect the network cable between the WAP and the Gigabit switch
    that the problem is momentarily solved.  Then it seems like another high traffic usage of the
    WAP will cause the connection to hang.  This solutions is totally unacceptable as I am not
    willing to open my wiring closet every time to fix this hang.  Also I've lost precious data
    between my client and server because of this hang!
    I don't think the problem is with the Gigabit switch as I have other Gigabit devices connected
    to it and I never get them to hang like the WAP.
    I saw on the release notes (although the firmware has not been posted) that there is a problem
    with the WAP Gigabit PHY.  From the release notes, it seems the firmware will have an
    option to take down the speed of the WAP Gigabit PHY from 1000BT to 100TX.
    This would be a shame if this is the final solution as one main reason for purchasing the
    WAP4410N is its Gigabit capability.
    Being a networking PHY designer who had also worked on other Cisco products, I'm surprise
    that this problem had not been resolved in their qualification and interoperability lab.
    They should have been able to identify this problem quickly and provide the right fix.
    Cisco please help!

    Hi,
    I was made aware of this issue and the work around of setting copper port seed to 100 meg, just before X-mas.
    (please note: the work around will not advertise 1000M options).
    I didn't even question, if this would be fixed.
    I also have, to coin a expression, have my fingers crossed that the 'fix'  will be expedient, but i have no date.
    We both should check this community site to see if someone has already posed any extra information regarding this issue.
    regards Dave

  • WAP4410N stops responding on large file transfers

    Also experience this issue, latest firmware (7/17/2010 version).  Definately related to large file transfers.  Or, viewing videos (e.g. youtube) over RDP.
    Only power cycle gets responsiveness back.  Laptops remain connected, but with "Limited Connectivity".

    There's a limit of 10MB for a single RTMP message in LCDS, you're probably running into this but you're supposed to get a "TCMessageTooLargeException" when you go over 10MB. I think there might be a bug around bubbling this exception but either way, I think you should try to chop your file in 10MB chunks when using RTMP.
