RE: SSID jumping with Win 8.1 (Surface Pro 3) on Aruba
Apparently once a device sees there is no direct Internet access it stops trying, at least for a period of time. We found the portal made a huge impact on our DHCP usage.

Our Guest SSID has a portal, but for a while we ran an open SSID with no portal. With no portal, we quickly found DHCP scopes filling up due to mobile devices constantly associating, checking for Internet access as they roamed around campus. Even with a portal, don't devices still get a DHCP lease? We had to deal with this by making our subnet and DHCP scope large enough for any potential mobile devices automatically associating, even if they didn't have credentials for the portal. ** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/. ** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] CWNA training
If also had great success with reading the CWNA book, I found it very informative and an interesting read. A solid foundation for all the other books. If you do prefer instructor lead training, I have taken two courses from Robert Bartz, http://eightotwo.com/index.html (CWAP CWDP) and had a very positive experience.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] CWNA training
I took CWAP from Robert, not CWNA and can attest to him being a great instructor. Know lots of guys who took CWNA from him and they had nothing but good things to say.
