I setup the Cisco Aironet to use WPA2 (AES/CCMP) and LEAP for authenication.

I have this working with one major exception!

I turn on the T60 and I can authenticate just fine. But once I reboot the T60, I am no longer able to authenticate.....until I reboot the Aironet AP.

It seems that the Aironet never sees me leave (DEAUTH) when I reboot the T60...I cannot find any setting (like on my MAC) to DEAUTH when rebooted/shutdown.

Anyone experience anything like this? - I have opened a TAC case with Cisco this AM about this. Its nothing less than annoying.

I have an Airport Extreme that runs WPA2/AES (but not LEAP) and my T60 is happy during any reboots...so I dont feel that the T60 is to blame here...

There should be a way; I was playing around in AC the other day and noticed that there was an option that let you close any and all connection upon log out or shut down. That should deauth just fine.

I am using a T43, not a T60, but I have heard of at least one problem like this.

"Global Settings>Close all Connections When User Logs Off"

That is of ThinkVantage Access Connections 4.11a.

The solution...this is a known issue with Cisco and the Intel 3945ABG card.

Cisco told me to use the next lowest IOS and try. I did that and things work perfectly.

12.3(7)JA3

12.3.8JA is problematic.
