Is there a formula for converting from percent of signal strength to dbm? A lot of my customers relate more to the percentage value but most of the programs I use are easier to use with the dbm value.

We've started placing 1100s in our network. We've used 350s for some time and have noticed that the 1100s don't appear to have near the strength of the older 350s.The clients report higher strength from further distances connected to the 350 then the...

Has anyone ever found out why on a BR350 the ethernet light will start flashing red and the unit stops passing traffic? I was hoping 12.03 would fix it, but nope. Signal strength is over 60% and usually the unit works fine at 11mb. It's not a bad u...

Hi All,I am in the process of updating my AP1200 from ver. 12.01T1. I will be using LEAP and vlans. Would you recommend I stick with VXWorks or should I move to the latests version of IOS? Thanks,

We have currently purchased a test laptop with the new intel 2100 card that "supports LEAP" Intel Is telling me that drivers must be obtained from Cisco. I have tried teh ACU which obviously does not work being it is not an aironet card. Anyone t...
