The Cisco AIR-LMC352 is proving hard to find.
The Cisco AIR-LMC352 is proving hard to find.
Cisco End-Of-Lifed the Cisco AIR-LMC352
in January of 2006. Demand for the AIR-LMC352 Aironet 350 Series
Client Adapter has been high over the last year. Large quantities of
the AIR-LMC352 have been hard to find. You can still find them in
small quantities on auctions sites like eBay.
The AIR-PCI352
(PCI card) has what appears to be an AIR-LMC352 included (installed).
Many people have wondered if you can simply remove the AIR-LMC352 from
the AIR-PCI352. The AIR-PCI352 is much more available and this would
be a great solution for those of us looking for large quantities of
AIR-LMC352s. The problem however is that although they look the same,
they is a small but important difference.
The AIR-LMC352 adapter
that is included on the AIR-PCI352 has a modified boot code that only
allows it to work on the PCI card. If you attempt to remove that
AIR-LMC352 and install it in a standard PCMCIA slot, the system will
not recognize it. We have looked for ways to change the boot code (not
the same as the flash software) but have not been successful.
