Trouble Firmware WMS5316
Hi, I recently bought 1 WMS5316 and 2 AP WNDAP350. I boot the wms5316 and click on every menu with firefox6 on W7 32bits - Everything is ok. Then before to tune all the stuff, I decide, like ...
I have a similar configuration: 1x WMS5316 -- 1x GS724TP -- 8x WNDAP350
With FW 2.0.3 on controller, I can find all AP (FW 2.0.1, 2.0.9 or 2.0.27) but only after adding OUI A0:21:B7. Anyway, the controller have authentication failure when it tries to access to AP with FW 2.0.27. AP with FW 2.0.1 et 2.0.9 synchronize successfully.
If I upgrade the controller to FW 2.1.2, I have no more the OUI menu, all AP that was synchronized stay OK, but I cannot discover/add others. If I decide to unmanage some AP, it will be no more possible to manage them after because they will no more be discovered.
In the documentation, is written that the minimal FW for WNDAP350 is 2.0.27 if the FW for controller is 2.1.2 but is never discovered.
In conclusion, [highlight]the combo that works is[/highlight]:
