Worried about this error message

Hello,

I just got a new WIC for a Cisco 1841 router:

Here is the show version:

Cisco IOS Software, 1841 Software (C1841-BROADBAND-M), Version

12.4(12a), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3) Copyright (c) 1986-2007 by Cisco Systems, Inc. Compiled Thu 22-Feb-07 16:13 by prod_rel_team

ROM: System Bootstrap, Version 12.4(13r)T, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) System image file is "flash:c1841-broadband-mz.124-12a.bin"

Cisco 1841 (revision 6.0) with 114688K/16384K bytes of memory.

The WIC I got is for ADSL2+

I am worried because after I do a show diag I get this:

WIC/HWIC Slot 0: Unknown WAN daughter card WIC module not supported/disabled in this slot Hardware Revision : 8.0 Top Assy. Part Number : 800-26247-01 Part Number : 73-9932-06 Board Revision : A0 Deviation Number : 0 Fab Version : 08 PCB Serial Number : FOC1109533M RMA Test History : 00 RMA Number : 0-0-0-0 RMA History : 00 Product (FRU) Number : HWIC-1ADSL Version Identifier : V01 CLEI Code : COUIADECAA EEPROM format version 4

The second and third lines of that dont look very good to me.

Whats the problem here?

Thanks.

P.

You need version 12.4(4)T IOS code or newer to support the HWIC-1ADSL.

You have 12.4(12a) which is NOT the T train required.

(although your romboot version seemed to be, but romboot isn't main IOS).

You need to up the firmware to at least 12.4(4)T.

OK Doug. I will give that a try and I will get back to the group with a result.

This did the trick for me. You need to change the IOS to 12.4.(4)T. But I still dont know what the T train is.

Thanks again

T train is the "technology train", which is where the new features get introduced, and where the field bugs get discovered by the customers. Think of the T train as being essentially a beta version -- it's where the new things are happening, but not all of the new things are ready for prime time. If you were running a production environment, you'd really rather not be running T-train: for production environments you want stability. (Production environments can live with bugs provided the bugs are well-behaved -- and in T-train, the bugs aren't certain to be well-behaved yet.)
