Your IOS should be running a minimum of 15.1(3)T or 15.1(4)M.

You must check if the IOS support the WIC

Which type of wic do you have ?

Yeow,
You need to upgrade the IOS of your router. Your IOS should be running a minimum of 15.1(3)T or 15.1(4)M.

Hi,
The error message that you are getting generally comes either the software that you running is not supported or the card is not supported with the router. Refer the data sheet for the wic card if it is supported or not. IOS should be 15.1(3)T or later.
Thanks & Regards
