WAP 571 wont stay up or contact DHCP

Hello everyone.  I have two WAP 571s brand new in the box that I need to deploy.  They're connected to a WS-C2960-48PST-L but the 571s just dont stay up.  They cycle on and off and the port light is a solid amber.  The port was err-disabled but I shut/no shut'ed them and stayed connected.  When I do sh run gi, I get the status up/up (connected).

The APs do not contact DHCP, and the fallback IP of 192.168.1.245 is inaccessible despite me manually putting the laptop on the same subnet.

 

I took the APs to a different location with a 2960x, and the APs came right up, was able to web to them and configure them.  So I put a static address corresponding to the original location (where they dont come up) and they still dont boot, they just cycle.  The logs show tons of "change state to up" and "change state to down".

 

Any suggestions are more then welcomed.


Thanks!

Could be a broken port or cable at the other location.
