We also tried EAPOL-rate-opt. It did help with the Mac roaming issue, but it adds too much overhead and affects throughput quite a bit. We are on 6.3.1.1, and I still see the issue (testing on Macbook running Mavericks). Only fix that worked (per user fix) for us, is unchecking OCSP and CRL

Windows 8 and Broadcom wireless cards

2013-12-04 Thread T. Shayne Ghere
Good morning, I was wondering if any other school is having issues with the Broadcom Wireless network cards running Windows 8/8.1 pro on a WPA2/AES network? We have students that are upgrading their Dell computers from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and the cards stop working on our secure network.

I had a user just the other day upgrade from Windows 8 to 8.1 and it broke all of the stuff you mentioned. I rolled back the driver from version 6.30?? to 5.30 for their Broadcom 802.11n network adapter and all was well after that. The 5.30 driver was already on their computer listed under the

Does the new driver in Win 8 do 802.11w? See the list archives for detail, google 'cisco 802.11w educause' should probably work. May or may not be your issue, but on my phone I can't really look properly at code versions etc. Thanks -- ian Sent from my phone, please excuse brevity and

Not necessarily related to Windows 8, but we have had the same issue with Intel Centrino family chipsets. We had the users upgrade the chipset to the latest version available from Intel's site and that seemed to resolve the issues. Never rely on the user to tell you that they have updated the

Has anyone seen people upgrading their Windows 7 computers to Windows 8 or 8.1 and the wireless breaks completely? That’s what I’m seeing here with the Broadcom and some Atheros cards. I’ve been working on this since Monday (solid) and cannot get any Broadcom wlan cards to connect with

We are an Aruba shop and have had problems with this as well. Our Windows 8 users have been fine on our 802.1x wireless network, but any of them that have upgraded to 8.1 are shot. Includes Broadcom and Qualcomm chipsets so far. No one has had any luck so far, but I'm trying to get some users

One new feature that we found the hard way in 8.1 is that it tightens up validating CA certificates. In particular, we found that our self-signed certificate (which we explicitly placed in the trusted CA store) got silently rejected because it didn't have any kind of OCSP or other revocation

I have seen three cases of this. We are running Cisco WiSM2's and 1142/3500/3600 series AP's. All three laptops were working fine on Win7, and then after upgrading to Win 8.1 they can no longer get an IP address on either our open SSID or our .1x SSID. On a debug, I show that our DHCP server
