Apple iPhone connection loss with Cisco access point

[Chris Campbell]

Hello,

I just set up a Cisco access point with autonomous IOS firmware, and I am having problems with Apple iPhones.  After some period of time, the 802.11 no longer works, but the Apple device says it's still connected.  It doesn't work again until I reconnect to the access point, which I usually accomplish by turning the Wi-Fi interface off and then back on again.  Then it works again for some period of time before disconnecting.

I assume there is some setting I can change that will fix this but I'm not sure which one it is.  Anyone know?

Also, there are a lot of debug options on the AP, could anybody offer some debugs that would be helpful to turn on for troubleshooting this?

Thank you!

Have you tried updating the IOS? (but beware many people report parts of the GUI are broken in latest releases so at your own risk or stick to using the CLI)

- debug dot11 events

- debug dot11 station connection failure

there are a few others but really depends what features you have enabled and how your SSID is configured.
