No access to cmd's or Web Console Aironet 1142n

[drikilbride]

Hi

I have Cisco Aironet 1142n.

I currently have no access to config t in order to configure interfaces or the web console.

I found this article regarding the fact that my IOS version is set incorrectly but I can't set up telnet to upgrade the image as I have no access to config to set a password on it. The AP is getting an IP from DHCP and I can ping it but I cant access the web console either.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

You're most likely having a lightweight Access point when you wanted an IOS access point.

Download the IOS software for 1142, then do the following on ap console :

-debug capwap console cli

-archive download-sw /f /o tftp:///

Bingo, it reboots in IOS.
