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

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

We have seen this as well. The instructions from the blog that Don posted
are essentially what we use. Our Help Desk has a flash drive with a pile of
wireless nic drivers that they keep handy.

Not necessarily related to Windows 8, but we have had the same issue with Intel

During our opening, and after a Windows update on my own son's machine at the
same time, we saw many cases where both WLAN adapter and chipset drivers both
had to be updated to connect to secure networks.

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
I had similar problems with my own laptop after going from 8 to 8.1, for both
