Published August 24, 2006

Fixes

• Fixed a bug on firmware version 2.0.9NA which prevented any changes in Basic Settings page from being saved.
• Wireless client association will now work in Repeater mode with shared key authentication.
• Fixed occasional AP hung problem in crowded wireless environment.

Known Problems

1. AutoCell is not supported.
2. Rogue Access Point Detection is not supported.
3. Untagged VLANs are not supported.
4. The management VLAN ID is restricted to 1.
5. When WG302's built-in DHCP server for wireless clients is enabled, if there is another DHCP server on the LAN, the wireless client may get IP address from the DHCP server on the LAN instead of the WG302.
6. If you're using adapters WG511, WG511T, WAG511 or WAG311, get the latest driver and utility by selecting the product from the Support downloads page. These support WPA-PSK.
7. You must set a valid primary Radius accounting server to use the secondary Radius accounting server.
8. If the primary DNS server is not available, then the secondary DNS will not work.

Upgrade using TFTP

1. Configure the IP address of your PC to 192.168.0.36

3. Copy the WAG302 firmware image into the TFTP Root directory, such as c:\TFTP-Root.
4. Rename the image to wag302.rmt
5. Connect your PC and the WAG302 access point directly with a CAT5 Ethernet cable.

The TFTP server automatically transfers the firmware to the WAG302.

The access point automatically reboots after the successful TFTP transaction.
