Hi Bruce, Yes, identical issue, but we use Trapeze equipment. The same hardware booted into XP would work flawlessly, and it affected many different laptop brands (though possibly they had a common NIC). An upgrade of our controllers firmware solved the problem. Before we did the upgrade we found reducing the wireless interfaces MTU from the default 1500 to 1400 also allowed them to work. I can provide a batch file we knocked up to automate it if it's of use. Regards James Hodge University of East Anglia, UK

The client PCs will associate with the AP, and obtain an IP address from our DHCP server. However they are unable to view web sites because they appear to be unable to communicate with the network. These same clients are said to work normally when connected to other wireless networks. Our APs are Cisco 1231 running IOS version 12.3(7). Has anybody experienced a similar problem?
