Hi all,
I have a cisco 881W that I am having a strange issue with. I can't seem to get my details past whatever filter they have put on this site as I keep getting this message:
This message can not be displayed due to its content. Please use the contact us link with any questions.
But in a nutshell, two laptops don't get a dhcp address, one tablet also can not, but two phones can when connected to the wireless network. All of the devices I am having trouble with are made by a manufacturer named after a fruit.
When the devices that do not get an ip connect, I see them associate with the AP, but I don't see any activity under sho ip dhcp server stat

To clarify, when I connect either laptop directly to the wired switch on the router, I get an IP address and everything works normally.
If I connect either of the phones to the 802.11n network (either SSID) they both get an IP address and everything works normally.
If I connect either laptop to the 802.11n network, both associate to the access point, but neither one gets and IP address.
If I do sho ip dhcp server stat I see the statistics increment if the phones are connected to the wireless network, or if the laptops are connected to the wired network. I don't see the statistics increment when the laptops are connected to the wireless network.
tcpdump does show the laptops sending dhcp discover packets, so it looks like the access point is not forwarding the laptop dhcp requests for some reason.
the router is running ios 15.0M and the ap has 12.4 something on it.

It could be that your AP is in 802.11n mode only. Try enabling it for 802.11 a/b/g/n on both the 2.4 and 5 GHZ radio
see the following link http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4199

It seems like a wireless isssue ;however have you tried to put a static ip on the laptop from the DHCP server and then try to check if you are able to connect/ping across it.
in case if there is any vulnerablity related to Wireless standard 802.11n , then it should bve reported to TAC for the analysis;however first action will have to be to test it with the static ip.
2. Share the output of debug dhcp

The AP in the 881W only has a 2.4GHZ radio. I took a look at the apple support link and there wasn't anything that really helps, but some good tips none the less.
Here's the dhcp server debug output when connecting with a phone:
on the ap:
*Mar 1 00:04:22.915: %DOT11-6-ASSOC: Interface Dot11Radio0, Station 8853.956b.1cbf Associated KEY_MGMT[WPAv2 PSK]
on the router side:

Jan 11 04:17:35.467: DHCPD: Found previous server binding
Jan 11 04:17:36.479: DHCPD: Sending notification of ASSIGNMENT:

Jan 11 04:17:36.479: DHCPD: htype 1 chaddr 8853.956b.1cbf
Jan 11 04:17:36.479: DHCPD: lease time remaining (secs) = 86400
When the laptop connects I see the associate message on the AP, but no activity on the dhcp server on the router side.
Heres the dhcp request from the laptop:
23:24:56.036120 IP 0.0.0.0.bootpc > broadcasthost.bootps: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 00:23:6c:9a:2f:42 (oui Unknown), length 300
