Yes that is what we do now. We use "adaptive" for our branded SSID(has been
working for years until 8.10) and disable FT for eduroam and ask the affected
Android users to use eduroam. It is not ideal but is the best we can do to
work around CSCvu24770.

regardless if the phones were Android 10 or 11. When we set FT to "disabled",
the Android clients in question were able to connect and
We have FT enabled on ours, and it allowed the Andorid devices to connect that
were unable to while we had FT adaptive. I have not heard, up to this point,
of any devices failing to connect since we made the swap a couple months ago.
