  • WLC Configuration Best practices - no updates since 2008?

    There has been no updates to this doc for almost 4 years.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a0080810880.shtml
    That's a long time for wireless, especially since it still references release 5.2, and we now it's 7.0.  Plus quite a few new AP families have been announced, 802.11n, Cleanair, etc.  I think this document is overdue for an update.  Has there not been any lessons learned since 2008?  Can anyone from Cisco comment on this?

    Guys:
    I agree with you. many docs are old, pretty old.
    You can use the Feedback button at the bottom of the doc page and send your feedback to Cisco.
    Most of the time they will reply you and you can discuss your opinion about that doc is very old.
    I've done this with more than one doc and config examples that describes the config by providing images for version 3.x. They updated some of the docs to reflect later releases (6.x and 7.x).
    They have no problem with updating the docs, they have a good team to work on the docs to create and update. Just you be positive and hit that "Feedback" button and tell them and they'll surely help. (if not please tell me. I have a kind of personal contact with the wireless docs manager).
    HTH,
    Amjad
    You want to say "Thank you"?
    Don't. Just rate the useful answers,
    that is more useful than "Thank you".

  • Linksys RVS400 router firmware update

    We have a Linksys RVS4000 that has not had its firmware updated since we bought it.  We are running version 1.1.09.  Our internet is going down often and we have to continually restart the router, as it is usually the problem.
    How do I update the firmware to the latest version? Where do I find this update? Will I have to incrementally update since we are so far behind?
    Thank you

    Here is a link to download the firmware:
    https://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=282414013&softwareid=282465789&release=1.3.3.6
    No need for incremental updates. This should preserve your settings but you may want to write them down just in case.
    There are more recent versions however it looks like your router is version 1, a version 2 firmware won't work on it.
    To upgrade you download the file then login to the router usually 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 in your web browser. Login default is admin/admin
    There will be several tabs 1 of which will either be administrator or system management the option you will be looking for is Firmware upgrade. Click the button that says browse and select the file you downloaded then click upgrade. Give it some time to work. Don’t unplug it until it has finished. It should only take a minute or 2.

  • Nokia 5800xm firmware update not found!

    hello0!
    Nokia has released many firmware updates since they had released nokia 5800xm.But still i am stucked with firmware v21.0.025.I cant find any updates via OTA.
    I want to know whether my phone's product code is something that is preventing my phone from recieving updates.
    My phones product code is 0588668

    hi mate,
    if you are checking then you may very well have a branded handset, in which case you will need to contact your network carrier and ask if they ever planned on releasing the firmware updates for your device.
    in the case they do not, then you can ask them for written permission to remove the branded firmware, and then take your phone to your nearest Nokia Care who will be able to install the generic, unbranded v60 firmware onto your device: http://nokia.com/support

  • Macbook 2008 4,1 serious problems after 10.6.8 and 1.4 firmware update

    I'm having a problem with my 2008 2.4Ghz Macbook. After doing a fresh install of 10.6.0 with a Retail DVD, the MB was working perfectly, absolutely no problems at all. I then ran Software Update and installed all the recommended updates to 10.6.8, and I only noticed in passing that there was a Firmware update to do too, as reported by Software Update. I ran that as well and, IIRC, it was applied after fully updating to 10.6.8 and after rebooting twice. The MB rebooted, ran the Firmware update (which seemed to complete fine, as the progress bar completed normally against the grey screen), then rebooted. Again, IIRC, after running the Firmware update, and I'm now at 10.6.8, I started a Repair Permissions and left the MB for a while. It was the next day, maybe 15 hours later, when I went back to the MB and it was in Sleep. I pressed a key to wake it and this is when the weirdness started.
    The screen was "fuzzy", sort of out of focus, though I could see the desktop, and what I could see was: the Disk Utility window open on Repair Permissions (which had completed normally) and several Vertical Segmented Bars running across the bottom part of the screen, at about the height where the Firmware Update progress bar was. These bars were filling in from left to right. IIRC, it may have looked a little like when you wake from Deep Sleep (or Hibernate, or whatever it was called). Like when you Wake from Sleep after the battery has run out and then you plug the AC adapter in.
    Anyway, before the Vertical Segmented Bars progress was completed, the screen went black. Pressing keys didn't bring the desktop back.
    I did a forced shutdown, reset the SMC, then rebooted. No startup chime. The Superdrive, hard drive and fans spun up, but the screen remained black. After a few reboots, I got a desktop back, and tried to reinstall from both an external HD (with Restored disk image) and the Retail Snow Leo DVD. Both times, the MB booted to the startup screen: with the external HD, I held down Option and chose the Snow Leo install; with the DVD, the MB started normally while I held down the C key. The boot started from the HD and the DVD, but after about 60 seconds, with Apple logo and the spinning "cog wheel", the screen went black. And seemed to shut down. With the external FW hard drive, the drive made a loud click, its LED went off, then it came back on after a few seconds, as if it had lost all power to it, then the LED lit up when power returned to it from the shut down MB. Anyway, the installs failed.
    I then attached the 2.4 MB to another MB (2.1) in Target Disk Mode and it booted fine into TDM. It showed up on the 2.1's desktop, I ran Check Disk and it checked out okay. I then looked under Startup Disk and the 2.4's disk was listed there, with 10.6.8.
    I then booted the 2.1 from the 2.4's disk and it booted fine. I ran check Permissions, and a huge list of permissions to repair came out. At this point, I've left things as they are. The 2.1 is booted from the 2.4, the latter used as external boot HD.
    I then replaced hard drive and RAM. Tried to boot from DVD and install, got to Apple logo and spinning cog wheel, but after about 2 minutes the screen went black.
    I then connected an external monitor and rebooted from the DVD. The external display received a video signal and I got to the Snow Leopard install screen. All this time the Macbook display has remained BLACK.
    I went to Disk Utility and reformatted the new drive, then started the installation, which completed fine. The Macbook runs normally connected to the external display.
    Any thoughts?
    Why would the Macbook display work fine at boot (Apple logo, etc.), but then cut out after about 2-3 minutes?
    Why would the Macbook screen remain black while I got a video signal on an external monitor?
    Does this sound heat-related in some way? I should note that while booting from the DVD and now installing Snow Leopard, the fans are going pretty fast.
    I just want to point out that this was an absolutely pristine, impeccable Macbook until these recent problems. It is in fantastic condition, none of the usual chips out of the top case and trackpad area. After the latest fresh install of 10.6.0 it was perfect upon reboot. Fast, perfect Airport and Bluetooth, FW and USB worked perfectly with a FW drive and USB mouse I hooked up. The update to 10.6.8 via Software Update seemed to complete fine.
    Then all the problems started AFTER THE FIRMWARE UPDATE.
    I don't know how much stock can be put in the firmware update being the cause of the problems, but the sequence here would bear that out. These are also somewhat unusual problems, at least in my experience.
    One of the odd things was when I first went to wake the Macbook after the firmware update: the "fuzzy", out-of-focus screen and the segmented progress bars. And it was just before the segmented bars completed progress from left to right that the display cut out and went black. And from that time on, I've had the aforementioned problems.
    Any ideas or links to similar problems would be greatly appreciated, e.g. possibly firmware related, or where the Macbook screen works but goes black after a couple minutes. And now that I've been able to connect to an external monitor, it would seem that the video signal is okay too.
    Thanks.

    Just to update.
    After leaving the Macbook unplugged and without battery for a few days. I reset the SMC and, with no battery installed, I've just now rebooted and:
    1) the first time, it booted, but no chime, and when the display turned on, once again I got the "out of focus" desktop AND the segmented vertical bars on the desktop (and the bars were filling in from right to left); the display went black after about 10-15 seconds;
    2) I shut down and swapped some different RAM, then reset the SMC again and booted without battery. This time I got the boot chime and the Macbook booted to the Apple logo screen and spinning cogwheel. After about 2 minutes, the cogwheel stopped spinning, as if to boot to the desktop, but then the display went black. The front light started to pulse after about 10 seconds, and the Macbook appeared to be in Sleep.
    3) I woke the Macbook from sleep by hitting a few keys and this time it went to the desktop. This is the first time it's gone to the desktop since the problem started.
    I had enough time to see that everything appeared normally on the desktop, such as the time and date, Airport was connected, etc. And then the display went black again, after about 10 seconds.
    At this point, I can now always get to the desktop, but the display goes black after about 10 seconds. I have just enough time to press a few keys and the Macbook does respond.
    4) I shut down and reinserted the battery. Here's where new problems show up.
    With the battery inserted, and the Macbook in sleep, if I hit a key, the DVD spins up as the Macbook is waking, BUT now the front sleep indicator light FLASHES (blinks) 5 TIMES. No beeps.
    The Macbook still gets to the desktop, like before, and the screen goes black after 10 seconds.
    I found some info on the Apple site re. 5 flashes (Article 21502):
    If you don’t hear beeps, but the sleep indicator light flashes five times when you start it up or wake it from sleep, its battery may need service. Take the battery to an Apple Authorized Service Provider, such as an Apple Retail Store.
    For more information, see the Apple Support article below.
    You can continue using your computer before you service the battery. Use a different battery, or connect the computer’s power adapter and plug it into a power source.
    Note:If you use your computer without a battery or with a faulty battery, you could lose all unsaved changes if it’s unplugged while it’s on.
    BUT, the battery is not defective, as it works okay in another Macbook.
    I should also point out that the problem with the 5 indicator light flashes or with the battery did not exist before the 10.6.8 and the Firmware 1.4 updates.
    Any ideas?

  • WiFi Problems - TC to MP, since recent firmware update

    Hello,
    i found some threads about other people having trouble here, but nothing seemed to fit my situation.
    I have 2 Macs - a Mac Pro (Early 2008) and a MacBook (Late 2008). And a Time Capsule, which i purchased sometime between the Macs. Up to now, everything worked perfect, both machines were connected via WiFi to the TC. But since the recent firmware update, the MacBook works fine with the TC, absolutely no problems, but the Mac Pro (a bit longer distance) doesn't work any longer.
    This started on Friday (i don't use the MP daily), it was impossible to get a WiFi connection, tried re-entering connection data and so - no success.
    On Saturday, i used the cable to check the TC configuration, everything worked fine, and after fiddling around with the setup, i finally got WiFi working again.
    Sunday - MP was off all the day.
    Today - Just powered it up, no WiFi. When i disable and re-enable AirPort, it gets a connection for a second or 2, but then drops it. If i get a connection, i have a strong signal (all bars black), so signal quality isn't an issue. And before the update, everything worked fine, the only change is the firmware update last week.
    The MacBook doesn't have any issues, no matter, where it is located. I'm currently writing this post on it while syncing some home directory stuff with the MP (MB connected via WiFi, MP connected via cable).
    So what is this new problem? After damaging USB to complete unusability, Apple now continues with the WLAN features? What comes next? When will all this be fixed?
    Meanwhile, i think it was not the best idea to switch to Apple about a year ago. The continous quality drops get painful meanwhile. I wonder when my iPhone gets unusable (which also works fine with the TC, by the way

    Hi again,
    okay. It really was the 7.4.1 firmware. This morning, i reverted to 7.3.2, did a full reset, reconfigured everything, and now my network works fine as it did before.
    It seems to be important to reconfigure the TC, as just downgrading the firmware didn't really help, while full reconfig with 7.4.1 also doesn't help.
    I now turned off the automatic search for new versions on the TC. I will be informed by the AP Express, which has no problems with 7.4.1 yet.
    Hope, Apple re-introduces quality control soon and doesn't make the customers be the beta-testers.
    ...Michael

  • Mid 2006 iMac Boot Problem (Since latest firmware update)

    I have a Mid 2006 17" iMac. Ever since the latest firmware update in early December, about every other startup I've been having boot problems. After the white screen with the Apple Logo and the spinning wheel it goes to a blue screen like normal, but instead of the 'Loading Mac OS X' white window popping up it stays blue and the spinning loading wheel starts. I've left it loading for quite a while before and nothing changes. I have to do a force shut off by holding the power button. and then I start it up and it will boot normally.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Actually, I think it'san early 2006.

  • IMovie Preview Not Working since latest Firmware Update (11/14/2006)

    I was working on an iMovie project without incident until an automatic Firmware update was completed. Since the update, the editing preview function of iMovie is a black screen. The movie plays, but when you attempt to edit the Ken Burns effects, etc ... the preview screen is black so you are unable to edit a viewable screen. Strange ... anyone else - post firmware update issues on the MacBook Pro?

    (Quoting Karl Petersen here:)
    There's a bug in iMovie 6 that makes it impossible to re-edit (Update) photo clips previously imported with the Ken Burns checkbox ON. The source photo, normally stored in the Media folder of the project, is (inappropriately) discarded when you empty the iMovie trash. The clips Update as black clips and the preview is usually black too, if I recall.
    The workaround is to 1) drag the photo from the iMovie trash to the iMovie Clips pane; or 2) never empty the iMovie trash.

  • Seagate external drive not recognized since firmware update

    I've looked through the posts here and haven't found this issue addressed specifically, so here goes. Any help will be appreciated.
    I ran the firmware update on my MacBook Pro the other day, and everything has been normal since, except when I went to switch on my Seagate external HD - which I use as a backup drive - this morning. The mac doesn't see it at all.
    Brought the drive into the office this morning and the iMac here, which hasn't been updated in at least 6 months, sees the Seagate right away.
    I haven't upgraded to Leopard, though I have it, becuase I'm in the middle of a project and don't want any trouble with ProTools. In fact, I hadn't been making any updates at all, but in a moment of weakness ran the firmware update!
    Thanks in advance.

  • AirPort Utility Opens By Itself EVERYDAY Since Firmware Update

    Ever since the AirPort Express firmware update a few days ago, the AirPort Utility opens everyday by itself, usually in the AM and under no specific set of circumstances. It always goes to the same info regarding sharing music and only gives me the option to continue to set up the AirPort automatically. When I quit and then check the settings manually, the music settings seem to be set up just fine.
    Anybody else have this problem? Doesn't seem like the firmware update could affect the software on the Mac, but I have no other explanation.

    In Airport Utility, check the preference menu item. There is a checkbox to monitor airport devices. If a device reports a problem, Airport Utility will launch automatically. Maybe somehow this option is turned on??

  • G5 Firmware update necessary? Random problems since Tiger upgrade.

    I have a PowerMac G5 (7,2) with a 1.8 GHz PowerPC 970 (2.2) CPU running under boot version 5.1.4f0. I have added memory.
    I apparently upgraded from OS 9 to 10.2.8 without running any firmware updates. I quite frankly don't remember. I have since upgraded to Tiger, directly from 10.2.8. (There were OS X versions in between, I'm told. *wry smile*)
    I am now having random problems.
    The machine won't sleep. Display will but tower won't.
    On occasion when I boot it up, I get the blue screen and nothing else; I have to shut it off with the power button and restart.
    iPhoto (ancient version) is running agonizingly slowly (better since I did the fix suggested in the iPhoto forum in answer to someone else's question).
    A short while ago, (in the last week) I noticed that some of my rules in mail ceased functioning (while others work fine). I deleted and recreated them to no avail. I previously had serious Mail problems that I fixed thanks to Mr. Gost, but those were largely of my own creation, so this latter might be unrelated.
    If I'm reading things on the various boards and in Apple's Support forum right, in order to truly fix this I should deal with the firmware, to wit:
    1. temporarily remove the memory I added (not factory-installed)
    2. somehow (handwave) install OS 9 OR boot up from a OS 9 disk
    3. download and install the 5.1.5f2 uniprocessor firmware update that Software Update keeps insisting I need.
    4. reinstall the added memory
    5. If I've reinstalled OS 9, reinstall 10.2.8 and then reinstall Tiger. (because I can't go directly from 9 to 10.4, right?) Otherwise, a clean install of Tiger might be a good idea.
    Is this accurate?
    Should this solve my blue screen and non-sleeping issues?
    Are those issues indicative of a serious problem, or just annoying?
    Is there more than one firmware update I should be using?
    Will updating my firmware at this point create more issues than it is worth (as I'm seeing that many people had issues after firmware updates?)
    Also, these problems seem to have intensified since the update to 4.10. Can I go back to 4... um... the last update? If so, can you point me to directions?
    Sorry to be so verbose. I'm obviously more than a little behind the bell curve on this upgrade. The version of iPhoto I want (6) isn't even sold anymore.

    Software updater insists the firmware update I need is 5.1.5f2. The only information I can find on this is on a 2004 page at apple support (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117) that states:
    These firmware updates cannot be installed when the computer is started up from Mac OS X. In order to install them, you must start up the computer from a Mac OS 8 or Mac OS 9 System Folder on the computer's hard disk (not from a CD).
    When you click on the technical details it says:
    Remove any third part RAM before installing this Firmware Update. After the Firmware Updater has verified that it has been completed correctly, you can re-install your third party RAM.
    There are other firmware updates, but they don't appear to address the issues I have been having, and they're not what Software Updater says it needs. Am I missing something obvious here?
    I will check the USB devices. Thank you.

  • Wrt160n v2 cannot ping after firmware update WRT160Nv2_v2.0.03.007_US_code.bin

    Router:  WRT160N V2
    I updated the firmware because I was tired of getting "page does not exist" errors.  But after the firmware update I have not been able to ping the router using 192.168.1.1. 
    The Power icon on the router flashes.
    When connected to the DSL modem the modem will connect to the internet and the internet light on the router will come on.
    When the PC is connected to the router the router port number that you plung into icon will light up.
    Pinging 192.168.1.1 will timeout
    So far I have tried:
    Hold the reset button down for 5 seconds (then another suggestion was 30 seconds,  and then another suggestion for a full minute)
    (I never see any kind of response from the router as a result from holding down the reset button.)
    Unplug router for a full minute
    Unplug modem
    Shutdown PC
    Plug modem back in
    (wait until the lights are on the modem become active.)
    Connect the router into the modem.
    Plug the router into the power supply
    (the modem will connect to the internet provider)
    (the router will display the following icons: power symbol (flashing), internet symbol, and port number connected to the PC.)
    Ping 192.168.1.1  (timeout)
    IPConfig /release (and /renew...which errors out)
    I have had this router for a couple of months and I am concerned that I will not be able to take it back.  If the reset button has no affect and I cannot communicate with it I am concerned that I am in for some bad news.

    Had you tried upgrading the router's firmware using wireless computer ? You should use the wired computer to upgrade the firmware...
    Now as the Power Light on the router is flashing you can try steps below..
    - hold down the reset button for about 30 seconds, then unplug the device, while you are still holding down the reset button.
    - leave unplugged for about 5 seconds, while you are still holding down the reset button.
    - plug the unit back in, while you are still holding down the reset button.
    - after about 5 seconds, let go off the reset button.
    Now, check if the power light is solid now...

  • Problems with networking after sleep since March 1st EPI firmware update

    Hi,
    After the new EPI firmware upgrade of my macbook pro (4 months old) a problem that I had 3 months ago re-appeared again :
    when I received my laptop (Lion, fully updated) a few months ago it had problems getting internet access after waking from sleep : it could detect the wifi-network, it was connected and when I tried to ping -for example- google.com in terminal it would answer. This means my network was working and DNS was working too...
    Only when opening safari, or software update or any other program that wants to go online, it would give me a 'no internet connection' message. After 3 minutes or so, it would work again (wihtout doing anything). I tried renewing the DHCP lease, moving the order of interfaces, re-adding the networks after deleting but nothing helped.
    The problem back then was solved after a firmware upgrade, and it would be online 2 sec after waking from sleep.
    After this week's firmware upgrade the problem came back......
    Anyone have any suggestions, or anybody know if Apple is working on it again?
    Thanks,
    Koen

    For me the problem is solved now.....last night software upgrade popped up with "another" EFI-firmware upgrade, and after this it worked again....too bad I didn't look at version number. But I'm happy I wasn't the only one with this problem....
    For the questions above : this was abviously firmware related since it happened directly after the first update. If something has worked and nothing changed in the peripherals the problem is in hte thing that DID change...the firmware. I was surfing after solutions and I did see that there is a problem for some people with the way the OS passes on the DNS (so when pinging, the DNS is picked up directly or something, but in applications such as safari.... it grabs the settings from the OS somewhere). There was a terminal-based solution to reset this setting but by the time I wanted to try it the frimware upgrade popped up....but maybe it can help others...

  • Can't Read some Discs since SuperDrive Firmware Update

    Since upgrading the UJ 835 firmware with the SuperDrive Firmware Update v2.0, I have lost the ability to read many of the DVDs I burned with this drive, that used to read fine with the original firmware. This effects both video and HFS+ discs. The drive tries to read, goes through a cycle perhaps of three attempts and then kicks out the disc.
    These are media listed as the "unacceptable" for this finicky drive, but they burned and read fine prior to the update. I am talking about 100s of Memorex, Imation, HP to name a few in particular.
    I would prefer access to these discs over burning at higher speeds.
    How can I reinstall the original firmware?
    Or has anyone found or suggesting a work around for this problem besides an external drive?
    Thanx

    I had little hope for the downgrade, but thought maybe others have talked about discs not reading after the update that were reading before and could voice in with work around or other feedback.
    I am with Apple warranty. Which is of no matter to being able to read none Apple media, I assume they need not warranty that. If I were to get another drive, I'd probably have to get an external to not void my Apple care. Just a shame that the drive used to read media which after updating won't read. Leaves a person out in the cold to loose the ability to read hundreds of discs that the drive used to read. Anyone else reporting this?
    As of today the link you offered prices the UJ 845 external at $130. This is a drive by Panasonic. Even at that, LaCie prices less. Any reason to consider the UJ 845 better than the LaCie? Have you experience with the UJ 845 reading 16x Imation or Memorex or HP or other media usually discouraged for apple drives? Apparently LaCie will read these. UJ 845 is not a newer drive.
    What would be the best choice currently?
