CISCO876W-G-E-K9 - SSID are not visible

[jgeralsky]

Hello All,

I am new one in wireless topic and I have one simple question.

CISCO876W-G-E-K9, we have 2 SSID enabled.

Unfortunately both SSID are not broadcasted (visible) and clients cannot see them.

The clients must setup SSID manualy and then are able to connect to Wi-Fi network.

Where can I setup broadcasting SSID on CISCO876W-G-E-K9 ? 

Thank you very much.

Hello Brett,

here is the thing : 

The current configuration : 

dot11 ssid SPI
   vlan 2
   authentication open
   authentication key-management wpa
   mbssid guest-mode
   wpa-psk ascii 7 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
!
dot11 ssid SGAD
   vlan 1
   authentication open
   authentication key-management wpa
   mbssid guest-mode
   wpa-psk ascii 7 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

but this output show the guest mode is not enbaled.......................

Router#show dot11 bssid
Interface               BSSID         Guest  SSID
Dot11Radio0   0023.331f.3120  No   SPI
Dot11Radio0   0023.331f.3120  No   SGAD

The current version which is running at Sulz location is 12.4(15)T10.

(c870-advsecurityk9-mz.124-15.T10.bin)

Is this a bug ? 

Thank you,

Jan

Hi Jan,

Please forward the following output:-

show run interface dot11radio 0

Please note that you have to also add command mbssid under the radio interface

For ex:-

interface dot11radio 0

mbssid

Do let me know if you have any queries or concerns.

Hello Shubham,

You are right !

There was missing command mbssid under dot11radio 0.

********************************

interface dot11radio 0

mbssid

Now, both SSID are visible.

Thank you very much.
