Cisco 340 wireless card

I have a Cisco 340 wireless card in my pc. Works great with the Cisco
A/P. I have a Symbol AP-4131 a/p.. I was trying to get the cisco 340
to SEE the Symbol AP... What do I need or CAN the Cisco work with the
Symbol???

Thanks

The 340 client should interoperate fine with any standards-compliant
802.11b AP. In addition to the 802.11b standard protocols, it supports
104-bit static WEP (aka "128-bit WEP"), as well as WPAv1 TKIP (for which
you would need to use a WPA EAP supplicant or a WPA-PSK supplicant such
as Windows XP WZC.)

How do you have your Symbol AP configured? What is its SSID? Is it
broadcasting the SSID in beacons? Is it configured for static WEP?
If so, is it 40- or 104-bit WEP? Have you configured the WEP key?
Is it configured for shared key or open authentication?

Once you find that out, add a profile in ACU to match the Symbol
AP's settings. Then activate the Symbol profile within ACU or by
right-clicking the ACM icon in the system tray (i.e. the square icon
with the concentric arcs radiating up from a point.)

To reinstall/upgrade/downgrade the code for the 340, go
to http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/Softwa.../wlplanner.cgi
and walk thru the prompts till you find the install wizards.
Install Wizard 1.2 is the most recent officially supported code
for the 340 client.

See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/...0801d2e1f.html
for full docs.

Cheers,
