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

this is the IOS on the router

looks like I need to upgrade the IOS

router#sh ver
Cisco IOS Software, C1900 Software (C1900-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 15.1(1)T, RELE                                                                                        ASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

 

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
