Help Configuring Cisco C887VA-W-E-K Wireless

rafik.harrar

Hi,

im having trouble to configure the wireless on the Cisco C887VA-W-E-K router.

I managed to get the DSL working using cable, but cant seem to connect to the router when i use Wireless. I can see the SSID and when i double click on it i get the Network Key promo. I input the network key, the router seems to try and connect me but then it fails, its as if the router cannot give me an IP address even though i have DHCP configured on the router. Maybe the AP and The router arent linked up?

I have configured many wireless devices in the past, but this new model is different, it seems Cisco have changed their router infrastructure and seperated the router from the AP.

From the router i can ping the AP IP address and i have the latest IOS - C800-Universal-mz.SPA.151-4.M4

Any help would be appreciated - thanks in advance.

Here is a copy of the config

Hi Amjad,

Thanks for your reply. I did look at this link before i posted on here.

I tried to follow the instructions from cisco as best i can but it still doesnt work.What am i missing from my config?

I started from scratch again and this time its working. The only noticeable difference is the following on the router config

interface wlan-ap0

description Embedded Service module interface to manage the embedded AP

ip unnumbered Vlan1

i believe the "IP unnumbered" Vlan1 command is what link the router with the AP.

On the AP, there was a few things that changed, here is a copy:
