I might have missed something, but the AP is running the latest firmware, 2.4.5. Do I load a different MIB? What the heck is a MIB?
Cheers,
Brann

The supported b/g card that you should get is J8432A.

Re: Proxim/Orinoco b/g on AP 520wl?
I'm fairly certain that the Proxim b/g card is the same as the 170wl, however, it could be that Proxim made special versions of the b/g cards for HP.
I'm also trying to convert the 520wl to PoE with a splitter, but that doesn't seem to work either.
Does anybody know if the 2600-8PWR has a CLI command to turn PoE on and off on a selected port?

Re: Proxim/Orinoco b/g on AP 520wl?
I just read a bulletin from Proxim... nope.
[quote]No. Using the Clients cards in place of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g Kit Cards will not work, since the Kit Cards have a specific hardware ID that the AP is required to detect before recognizing and activating the radios.
The only exception is the Orinoco Classic card, 8410-WD, which is an 802.11b-only radio, and will work as either a client card or as an AP radio card.[/quote]
Awwwww.

The main purpose is to convert Silver to Gold (40bit WEP to 128bit), but also capable to edit other card parameters.

We have many 520wl APs and after I noticed they were just Proxim AP-2000s, I stopped buying them and started getting the Proxim units. The 520wl do not support poe period. Disassembling the two units yeilded a drastically different board layout... I don't think the circuitry is there for anyone to toggle in firmware.
HP officially backed my assessment on that after I called (for what that is worth). At the time, they seemed to have VERY little knowledge of the units - and I was particularly disgusted that they were so clueless about the product. Where necessary, we used Hyperlink injectors AND splitters for the HPs, and desoldered the strange (good luck finding a replacement) power connector from the power supply. I would be hesitant to load the Proxim FW on a 520wl. The box is the same, but the guts don't match!

Re: Proxim/Orinoco b/g on AP 520wl?
Well, we also found some AP 420's on eBay, so the two 520wl's I got are pretty much limited to conference room use. On the upside, so far, the regular Proxim firmware seems to work quite well.
Oh, I figured out the PoE off/on too... the 'no power' command (from the CLI) on the port will turn it off.

Re: Proxim/Orinoco b/g on AP 520wl?
I've got 2x 520's and I've noticed the different revisions printed on the sticker where the mac-address is, also the more recent unit boots up a lot quicker. I haven't looked into the PoE feature though so next time I get a chance I'll check it out.

I was confused too, looking back I think Brann was referring to the 2600-8-PWR.
