Re: [WISPA] nearby Cisco APs suspected of not playing nicely
I think it's more of an interference problem based on what you're talking about. The software on the APs is unlikely to be causing problems from your customers' laptops to your APs.

[WISPA] nearby Cisco APs suspected of not playing nicely
A wireless network was working fine until around the time a dozen or so Cisco APs went up nearby, and I suspect that they are doing some sort of rogue detection on other APs. My questions to the group is... (1) What type rogue detection does the new Cisco controller have? (I don't have one handy to play with) (2) What exactly does it do to other APs to make associating to them very difficult? (e.g. Does it immitate that other AP and not let it associate?) (3) How can I prove this? (e.g. with a tool like Omnipeek or something) -- Also on LinkedIn? Feel free to connect if you too are an open networker: scubac...@gmail.com WISPA Wants You!
