X120e - Will a USB-connected Cardbus Cisco Aironet card go around whitelist restrictions?

I have a x120e that I'm trying to get with Cisco LEAP security. The Cisco Aironet (AIR-CB21AG-A-K9) cardbuss card will connect to LEAP but I'm wondering if connecting this cardbus card to the x120e via a Cardbus to USB adapter will allow me to connect this WiFi card to the x120e. I have run up against the whitelist restrictions when I tried to replace the half mini PCI card with an Intel WiFi card. I haven't quite worked up the courage to flash the BIOS with a new adapter name. DaveM

Hello,
I have not heard of anyone using that particular solution. Perhaps you could test it and let us know the results.
Have you looked for an external USB Wi-Fi adapter that supports Cisco LEAP protocol? I would think that would be easier to use, though, not to mention more convient to carry around, especially with a USB extension cable or right-angle adapter.

Slow connection with Cisco Aironet 1040

I have been racking my brain for a while and cannot figure out why I am not getting 144Mbps out of my Aironet 1040. I was reading a previous thread (
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2141961) and set it up exactly like it said. I have set the encryption to Cipher AES CCMP and set the SSID to open authentication. I also set the SSID's key management to enable WPA (WPAv2).
I was reading that WMM has to be set. I have 3 options: Disabled, Legacy, and dot11d. If i chose dot11d I have to put in a coutry code. Problem is there are no options in the country code pull down. I cannot even manually type it in.
Another problem is that cell phones cannot connect. It keeps saying authentication fails in the log.
Any reason why I am having such slow speeds?

WMM is enabled by default, or at least it should be.
What type of client are you using? Check the specs of the WNIC, and see how many spatial streams that it supports.
HTH,
Steve

WIll a USB connected drive on AEB work the same as Time Capsule?

Can I use an attached USB drive as a quasi-"Time Capsule" to backup several computers via TIme Machine?

I do have another plan in place. The problem I'm having with TM is that I'm getting errors now that I didn't have before switching to ML (Mountain Lion). If you're interested in those see my other thread...

Wireless site survey doubts with cisco aironet site survey utility tool

Hi,
I have 1131 autonomous AP and we have project where we need to implement WLC 5500 with 1140 LAP.
Before that , we need to do site survey . we are going to use cisco aironet adapter and with the help of site survey utility tool we are planning to do site survey .
I have below doubt before starting the site survey :
1) do we need to configure the AP 1131 with existing LAN set-up of client to get connected ?
If yes , how can i shift this 1131 ap always from one location to another location and connect to respective vlan in switch ? It would be tedious job ....
because , We need to connect ( get associated ) our laptop always to 1131 ap and then roam around to get the RSSI , signal strength , SNR and throughput .... ...
to configure the AP to existing lan set-up of client , it would not be flexible to do site survey ?
without that , how can I just plug-in power to 1131 AP with standalone configuration .... and without connecting to switch ( any lan-port ) , do the site survey ?
Please suggest me .............
In short , without connecting to LAN set-up of client , how can i do the site survey ?
2) will it be worth to do site survey with cisco aironet card ( site survey utility ) ? or we should i have different site survey software for the same ?
Please share the knowledge ....

Site Surveys are important and should be done by a professional. A poor site survey can lead to a lot of problems. It would be hard to put all aspects of conducting a proper site survey in a single post. Lets cover a few of the basics.
1) If you plan to deploy 1140 model access points. Then you should use that AP in autonomous mode so you dont have to be plugged into your network
2) The AP gets powered by an exteral power source like this battery for exmaple:
http://www.tessco.com/products/displayProductInfo.do?sku=345625&WT.mc_id=google_base&sp=true
3) As far as moving the AP around you can purchase a site survey pole like this:
http://www.tessco.com/products/displayProductInfo.do?sku=392506&eventPage=1
4) As for software, I like AirMagnet Surveyor

But again. There is a lot to know about doing surveys...

Airport and Cisco Aironet over Radius

Does anybody know how to configure a MacBookPro with built in Airportcard to connect to Cisco Aironet 1231 WLAN Router with LEAP Authentication over Radius Server?? I can connect to it when no security is activated but if LEAP is on no connection and no request is on the Server from the Client??!! Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem with my MacBookPro. Currently, I have supplied data to Apple's engineers from my machine as this is a known problem with MacBookPro's. AluminumG4 notebooks have no trouble authenticating; therefore, this may be a problem with the Atheros chipset. I am hopeful that the next version update will fix the problem, but don't have any information from Apple to support that optimism.
Good luck,

N96 Usb connection

Hi guys just a quick technical question.
When i try to connect my n96 to media player it will recognize it as a n96 but on the phone it will have usb connecting an will stay that way.
It also does the same thing on pc suite can any of you shed any light on this problem?
Many thanks , Tim

What do mean connecting to media player? Please explain furher. When you connect your N96 by usb to PC/Laptop you are presented 4 modes of connection. Namely Pc suite, mass storage, image transfer & media transfer.
If it stays on connecting, it means it could not establized proper connection & loading the drivers.Did you have previuos version of pcsuite when you install that of N96? If yes, you should uninstall it & all pertaining to Nokia. Then run pcsuite cleaner reboot & install the pcsuite for N96.

Actiontec MI424 router USB connection

When will the USB connection on the Modem/Router be turned on???????? Actiontec tech rep's say that they are waiting for Verizon to give them the OK.

I doubt you'll get an answer to that question here. Besides the fact that this is a peer-to-peer forum, Verizon never annouces in advance when (or if) a new feature will become available.

Cisco Aironet

I got a Cisco Aironet card to replace the Broadcom that uses ndiswrapper. Here is what happens
modprobe airo
modprobe airo_ca
then run iwconfig
eth1 (which is my wireless card) no wireless extensions
A few places suggested that it is the driver. Anyone have any other suggestions? Does anyone use a Cisco Aironet card? How did you get it installed?

i have aironet 350
modprobe
yenta_socket , pcmcia_core , airo , & airo_cs
in rc.conf
lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
#eth0="dhcp"
eth1="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 eth1)
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !hotplug pcmcia network netfs crond )
but since the upgrades that came out the other day
it doesnt work at boot up i have to unplug then plugin card
run as root
ifconfig -a
dhcpcd eth1 or i could use
dhcpcd wifi0
from what ive read so far its a udev prob havent been able to figure it out yet
so im plugging away at that

MacBook Pro will not connect to Cisco Wireless Network

I have just bought a brand new MacBook Pro, running Leopard (OSX 10.5.1) and I just cannot get it to connect to the Wireless Network at my workplace.
The MBP connects to wireless network and authenticates just fine, but will not obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.
The wireless network consists of 16 Cisco Aironet 1200 Access Points controlled by a Cisco Wireless Network Controller. It does not broadcast its SSID and is WEP 128-bit hex protected.
Changing the network from WEP to WPA is out of the question for me as this is under the control of my customers IT Department and they do not have any problems with their PCs connecting to the network. It appears to be an Apple issue.
For reference, my old Vaio PC, my Nokia N95 and my iPod Touch ALL connect to the same wireless network without any problems whatsoever, first time, every time!
If I boot into Windows XP from my Boot Camp partition, XP can connect wirelessly to the network without any problems, so it is not MacBook hardware related...
It has to be a bug in Mac OSX... doesn't it?!?
Things I have already tried (following suggestions on many forums):
* Switching Airport off/on
* Deleting various network-related Plist files and rebooting
* Manually assigning an IP Address (not really permitted but doesn't work anyway!)
* Disabling all network adaptors except Airport
AP Grapher shows that the MBP is connected to the wireless network, at good strength, and packets are being sent and received, but Internet Access is not possible as no IP Address has been assigned. Instead, my MBP shows a 169.* IP Address (self-assigned). It should be a 10.1.255.* address.
Can anybody please help? Thank you.

i posted this same reply elsewhere because it worked for me for my Buffalo wireless router: try manually setting your IP address instead of relying on DHCP, which sometimes (I don't know why) doesn't work well with Macs. It's a good get around. I am a happy Mac user but nothing is perfect on earth, and when the Mac gives problems, it does give a lot of frustration. Macs are not as easy to troubleshoot as Win because a Mac is built to be user friendly(and it works most of the time), meaning a lot of the background computing stuff is hidden away from users to avoid user accidentally upsetting some settings.
Unfortunately, the highly automated troubleshooting wizards provided by OS X are not perfect so when these software wizards fail to resolve the problem, like my Network Diagnostics, I have to spend more time tinkering around. There's "Terminal" of course but then most of us, especially PC converts to Macs, don't know how to use it.
You should also try updating your MBP, see if there are any new updates being released.

USB port on Cisco routers to connect 4G datacard

Hello
Can anybody know about the following questions?
1) Which router having USB port on which we can connect 4G datacard for internet connectivity?
2) Is there any inbuild USB port available on 1921-SEC/K9, 2921-SEC/K9, 3925-SEC/K9 routers for connecting 4G datacard for internet connectivity?
3) Is there any WIC card available that will be having USB port for connecting 4G datacard?
Regards,

1) Which router having USB port on which we can connect 4G datacard for internet connectivity?
None. USB ports do not have adequate capabilities to power up those kinds of devices.
2) Is there any inbuild USB port available on 1921-SEC/K9, 2921-SEC/K9, 3925-SEC/K9 routers for connecting 4G datacard for internet connectivity?

My ipad will no longer connect to the laptop. it comes up with usb not recognized. also when trying to connect to the power the first time i connect, nothing, but when i unplug from ipad and plug in a second time it charges

my ipad will no longer connect to the laptop. it comes up with usb not recognized. also when trying to connect to the power the first time i connect, nothing, but when i unplug from ipad and plug in a second time it charges

yeah tried all that. the only thing that i havent tried is to delete itunes completely and restart. its the same with the ipad. i havent done a master reset. i just think it has to be something rather simple as it acknowledges that i have plugged in the ipad as it makes the noise it just come up usb not recognized. it shows up as an unknown device that doestn have any drivers
its driving me round the bend at the minute

Satellite A205: Bluetooth USB dongle will no longer connect to AirCable

I plugged a generic Bluetooth USB dongle into my Satellite A205 and used it for several hours over three days to connect to an AirCable Serial Bluetooth to run my telescope controller. The generic dongle worked after downloading a Toshiba stack.
Each time I restarted the Bluetooth it incremented the COM port numbers.
My telescope controller will not recognize COMs above 20 so I deleted COMs that really were not used.
The Bluetooth USB dongle will no longer connect to the AirCable Serial Bluetooth. *It worked before and will not work today.*
I've tried three different Bluetooth USB dongles including TrendNet, AirCable and the generic.
I cannot connect to the telescope controller's AirCable Serial Bluetooth with any of the dongles.
_*Can anyone suggest a Bluetooth monitor that will work, or suggest a way to get my A205 to work with one of my Bluetooth USB dongles?*_

I have Vista. I did not download SP1. It did not appear in the Update Manager. My laptop is about 3 months old so I did not want to download the 400+ MB SP1 to a fairly new version of Vista Home Premium.
Here are steps that did work for me. This process is tedious but it worked three times in a row with no failures after scores of failed connection attempts.
*_Getting Bluetooth to Work With Vista and Generic Bluetooth Dongle_*
1. Power up Bluetooth serial (AirCable).
2. Start laptop with Vista Home Premium and wait 2 minutes.
3. Plug in the generic Bluetooth dongle.
4. Click tray Bluetooth icon to show Bluetooth devices.
5. Select and remove the existing device.
6. Unplug and plug in the generic Bluetooth dongle. My Bluetooth COM Port is 6-Outgoing Serial, and 7-Incoming
7. Add a new connection for the Bluetooth serial.
8. Start; Control Panel; Device Manager
9. If COM ports with a higher number than your selected ports (mine are COM 6 and COM 7) exist, do the following:
- Right-click the port number that is the Output port (Click the Bluetooth icon in the tray to determine which COM number is output and which is input).
- Let's say for my example that Device Manager Ports shows COM 11 and COM 12, and that COM 11 is output.
- Right-click COM 11 and select Properties
- Click the Port Settings tab and the Advanced button
- Click the Com Port number dropdown list and reassign it to COM 6 (the desired Outgoing COM port).
- Click OK a couple of times.
- Now, right-click COM 12 (input), Properties, Port Settings tab, and Advanced button.
- Reassign COM 12 to COM 10 (OK...), reassign to COM 9 (OK...), reassign to COM 8 (OK...), reassign to COM 7 (OK...). (You are clearing out unused COM ports 10, 9, and 8.)
- Click OK a couple of times.
- Click the tray Bluetooth icon and remove the existing device.
- Pull the Bluetooth USB dongle out of the computer and reinsert it.
- Click the tray Bluetooth icon, search for and add your Bluetooth serial device.
At this point your remote Bluetooth device should have a good connection.
+++++++++++++
Thank you everyone for your input. It is too bad that it is so difficult to use a Bluetooth dongle with Vista but such is life.

My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

You will need to install the printer on your Mac
Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Open Print & Fax
Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list
Wait for your printer to appear in the next box, then click it to highlight it
Click Add at the lower right
Be sure to select the correct printer when you try to print as you will see your printer listed twice. Good idea to make the printer now installed on your Mac the default printer so you do not have to choose which printer to use each time you want to print.
You can also go into Print & Fax, select the printer associated with the Time Capsule and click the - (minus) button if you want to delete that location.
