LAP AIR-LAP1131G-E-K9 can't connect to controller

Hi,

I have a problem with AIR-LAP1131G-E-K9 (Boot version 12.3.8.0) access point.

It can't connect to controller (WLC on SRE v.7.0.240.0) with error:

*spamReceiveTask: Feb 26 07:32:31.197: %LWAPP-3-PAYLOAD_MISSING: spam_lrad.c:5516  Join request does not contain BOARD_DATA payload.

do i need to do something manually with this access points?

I have 10 AIR-CAP3502I-R-K9, and they are working fine with controller.

Yeah Radoslav collect more to know more

Huh, things aren't getting better

After a couple of days fighting with console, I don't know what to do...

Looks like console  doesn't work at all, i've tried different console cables, 2 APs, different speeds in connection settings, but all output i get from it is (and i get this output only if i try to type something):

But if i connect the console cable to router or switch it works fine...

Might be better to RMA the APs than trying to figure out what's wrong. If you can console into any access points fine but not into another AP, that would be a good test. There are others in this forum that also had issues with the USB to serial adapters to. They are able to connect to the router and switches fine but not the AP. if you do have a good AP, console to that and see if it works or not.

I had similar problems when I tried to add some 1131's. For some unknown reason the AP's reset to bridge mode. I added their Mac Address to the AP authorization list, then when they re-joined, change them back to Local from Mesh. Then I could remove thier Mac, and they worked normally.

How I saw it was I found references to MESH in the logs from the console of the AP's, when they should have been in local mode.

Looks loke the problem is in the Certificate, but MAC shown in log  (000b85236dc0) is not from my network at all...

check the time and date settings on the controller

Time us correct (synced via NTP):
