I got this AP for free, and had some fun trying to configure it, and I decided to look at the inside of this thing. It has a PowerPC processor, pretty cool!
It is a Cisco Aironet 1131AG
More pics:
It's an old AP from around 2007, I managed to get the latest firmware thanks to some guy on the Internet Archive (thank god they exists) ! ( https://archive.org/download/cIOS-firmware-images/ )
By the way, with some not so ancient devices you can search for the firmware here: https://software.cisco.com/download/home and at least get MD5 and SHA-512 hashes to verify the files you downloaded.
Not the case with this AP though.
Edit: Oh, I almost forgot. Also the exact filename. Makes it easy finding it online.
Of course and I tried to search it, didn't find the download on the Cisco website sadly, nor the md5sum for this specific file, I found some other sums tho.
Cisco has a tendancy to remove download or block them behing an account with a licence...
