[c-nsp] AIR-AP1262N-A-K9 question.

[Jonathan Call]

There were some legacy WEP settings from the old WAP. I removed them but it still does not show 802.11n capabilities. Here is what I have now:

aaa authentication login allowed-eap group radius

dot11 ssid MyCorp
   vlan 705
   authentication open eap allowed-eap 
   authentication network-eap allowed-eap 
   authentication key-management wpa
   mbssid guest-mode
   infrastructure-ssid

interface Dot11Radio0
 no ip address
 no ip route-cache
 !
  encryption vlan 705 mode ciphers tkip 
 !
 ssid MyCorp
 !
 antenna gain 0
 mbssid
 station-role root
 no cdp enable
!
interface Dot11Radio0.705
 encapsulation dot1Q 705 native
 no ip route-cache
 no cdp enable
 bridge-group 1
 bridge-group 1 subscriber-loop-control
 bridge-group 1 block-unknown-source
 no bridge-group 1 source-learning
 no bridge-group 1 unicast-flooding
 bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled

The Dot11Radio1 is configured the same way except for two additonal settings:

 dfs band 3 block
 channel dfs

I did not adjust the speed or gain settings. I left those as default.  Every device I've tested with the new WAP only detects the 802.11ag radio and 54Mbps operational speed. This includes five different laptops with Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 AGN wireless adapters. I have six (3x 2.4GHz, 3 x 5GHz) dipole antennas attached.
