can someone give me some help on configuring the wireless interface? I have never configured a dot11 int before, and im playing around with it and cant seem to get it to dish out ip addresses. Here is the part of my config that I configured for the wireless portion. Thanks so much!

ip dhcp pool VLAN20
import all
network 192.168.101.0 255.255.255.0
default-router 192.168.100.254
dns-server 192.168.100.5
lease 7

interface Dot11Radio0
ip address 192.168.3.254 255.255.255.0
!
encryption mode ciphers tkip
!
ssid tomdotcom
vlan 20
authentication open
authentication key-management wpa
guest-mode
wpa-psk ascii 7 095841041D0A03110401

 
I had a lot of problems with a simlar setup on an 877W.

Here is my solution:

ip dhcp pool MyNET
network 10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0
default-router 10.0.0.203
domain-name xxxxx.com
dns-server 10.0.0.6 195.xx.xx.xx
lease 8

interface Dot11Radio0
no ip address
!
encryption vlan 1 mode ciphers tkip
!
ssid myNET
vlan 1
authentication open
authentication key-management wpa
wpa-psk ascii 0 blahblahblah
!
speed basic-1.0 basic-2.0 basic-5.5 6.0 9.0 basic-11.0 12.0 18.0
channel 2412
station-role root
no dot11 extension aironet
no cdp enable
!
interface Dot11Radio0.1
encapsulation dot1Q 1 native
no snmp trap link-status
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 subscriber-loop-control
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
bridge-group 1 block-unknown-source
no bridge-group 1 source-learning
no bridge-group 1 unicast-flooding

interface Vlan1
no ip address
no ip redirects
no ip unreachables
no ip proxy-arp
ip route-cache flow
ip tcp adjust-mss 1452
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled


interface BVI1
description Main Bridge to WAN
ip address 10.0.0.203 255.255.0.0
ip directed-broadcast
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly

The key is to think of the BVI1 interface that bridges the Vlan and the Dot1 interface instead of the conventional fastethernet interface.

Thanks for your help NettableWalker. What is the line that is actually doing the briding from bvi1 to the vlan and dot1 interface?
 
aaah, sorry, that bit was further down my config..

bridge 1 protocol ieee
bridge 1 route ip
