Hi all, User test this morning for guest ssid: Apple devices authenticated and connected OK PC's uthenticated and connected OK This was the last course of actions I did before I would decide to wipe out configs. 1.Reboot AP's, shut down the switch ports immediately to isolate. 2.Re-configure switch ports from Trunk to Access. 3.Re-enabled switch ports. AP's reconnected. 4.Reboot AP's again. 5. I also configured a very simple 8 digit password. ( previous was longer than 8 using mix of capital and numbers) Got users to test this morning and everyone was able to authenticate their devices, Apple's and PC's and navigate the www. Thanks everyone for your input and suggestions. It was a great welcoming as a newbie on this community.

Dan_Nicolet, Thanks for your input and testing time. I have changed the shared key to a very simple word, rebooted the AP's. User testing, no change unable to authenticate with mobile devices, specifically Apple Iphone. THe AP is connected to a cisco 3750 via PoE power packs. THe switch port was initially configured as a trunk because I want a vlan for guest and another for corporate. but for the purpose of testing I configured the guest ssid with very simple settings. after encountering all these connectivity issues I changed the switch port config to access mode. I cannot see how that would impact the authentication, however I gave it a try. Rebooted AP's after switch config change and still no change. HEre is the error shown in dashboard: type='WPA-PSK auth fail' associated='false' radio='1' vap='1' I feel like I need to wipe out the AP configs and start again.. if after doing that no change, the next step is a tac case.

BrandonS, I have not enabled 802.11r nor changed the RF profile. Taking every one's suggestions here is the plan. 1. change password to a simple word. if that doesnt make any difference, 2. I will create a new SSID as per the suggestion and change one setting at a time. if that doesnt make any difference, 3. Log a TAC case to get them to investigate if a firmware upgrade is required. I will report back results.

Thanks pstewart. I included my current settings in one of my previous posts. Appreciate your input.

I'll give that a try. At present it is only one word with two capital letter. I will change to just a plain word and see how it goes. THank you.

Hi BrandonS, Thanks for your reply. These are the current settings, which I kept basic as an initial set up testing. Association requirements: Pre-shared key with WPA2 and a key(password) WPA encryption mode: WPA2 only 802.11w: disabled Splash page: None (direct access) no group policies enabled Client IP assignment: NAT mode (Use Meraki DHCP) No VLAN tagging For now, Band selection: Dual band operation.

Hello, We have installed in our office MR33. Our Guest SSID works well with PC's connectivity. However it does not work well with Apple devices. After selecting the Guest SSID and entering the correct password, the Apple device keeps rejecting the connection due to incorrect password even though we know we are entering the right password. The Apple device also indicated issues with WPA2 settings. After following recommendations from the Apple support site, the devices still fail to connect. We have followed the recommendations steps: 1. resetting settings 2. resetting the device 3. re-try the connection by manually entering the SSID and selecting WAP2 as the authenticatin protocol. Still no success after completing those steps. Note that the Apple device used for testing connects well to other WIFI networks. Our MR33 are running firmware version: MR 25.12 The Apple device used in connectivity testing is running IOS 12.0.1. I am interested to know if anyone has come across this issue before? if so, I appreciate suggestions on how to resolve it. Thanks in advance!
