Hey Deb, You may also want to review this. http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless-mobility/wireless-lan-wlan/97066-dhcp-option-43-00.html
Maybe all you need is to add option 43 with the hex of the ip address for the controller. Hope this helps you.

In which case you have to login to your controller and add the MAC address in the filter to allow it to associate. Then let it download the image, then change the mode. Massively annoying, but sometimes that's how it goes...

It's a bug in the firmware - no idea how it got through testing... We had to serially config them all by hand - very painful. Process was... * Get MAC address of AP into your DHCP server * Boot AP * Using serial cable - enable -> Cisco * Type: capwap ap controller ip address w.x.y.z (in a few seconds the AP will start firmware upgrade - AP flashing blue) * When you get the usual "Not in Bound state" error, login to the CLI Uesrname: Cisco, Password: Cisco * enable -> Cisco * Type: clear lwapp private-config (AP will now start chatting to wism w.x.y.z) Apologies if this is not the same issue but if it is it will save you an awful lot of time trying to figure it out. We also saw the issue Jezz mentioned with two MAC addresses. That was easier to overcome!

Either IP address is not assigned or assigned IP is wrong. Renewing DHCP IP. It will receive an IP address, and then continue this error message and keep trying to renew DHCP IP. I can connect a AIR-CAP2702I to the same PoE switch and it connects flawlessly. I'm not sure why the 2702I will work and not the 2702E.
