Contact technical support for assistance if necessary. General warning. Firmware failure; disconnect power from the unit and reapply power. If the failure persists, contact technical support for assistance. Unit is loading new firmware. Checking Basic Settings Mismatched basic settings are the most common causes of connectivity problems with wireless clients and bridge-to-bridge or bridge-to-access point connections. If the bridge does not communicate with wireless devices, check the following settings. SSID Wireless devices attempting to associate with the bridge must use the same SSID as the bridge. The default SSID is tsunami. WEP Keys The WEP key you use to transmit data must be set up exactly the same on your bridge and any wireless devices with which it associates. For example, if you set WEP Key 3 on your wireless LAN adapter to 0987654321 and select it as the transmit key, you must also set WEP Key 3 on the bridge to exactly the same value. Refer to the "Security Setup" section in Chapter 3 of the Cisco Aironet 350 Series Bridge Software Configuration Guide for instructions on setting the bridge's WEP keys.
