I recently purchased a new Cisco 881w router (last Friday).
I have configured the 'wired' part of the router with little trouble, but the wireless side is proving a little challenging.
I have read a number of posts complaining about the firmware version installed on my device being very buggy.
The version of the firmware on the wired part is: Version 15.0(1)M8, however, the firmware on the wireless side seems to be: Version 12.4(21a)JA1 - the version reported as buggy. The former has a version date of 2012, with the latter being 2009.
I have tried to download a newer version, but the site is asking me to provide a support contract.
I wouldn't mind buying a support contract if the thing worked in the first place and I was trying to add some feature after it had been working for a while.
Is there anything I can do? An alternative way of downloading the software, some alternative commands to give the thing?
I have used both the CLI and CCPE interfaces without success.
Thanks
Aaron
