We are running 80 MHz channels in our dorms with game systems and no issues except for that one case with the Xbox 360s and we were able to resolve that one. We disable all rates below 12 Mbit too.

We saw an issue with the newer 360s & AP-225 where we needed to enable some lower data rates to get a reliable connection. We had 12mbit minimum rates for 2.4GHz & 5GHz. We saw issues when we performed packet captures during attempts to associate. We had Aruba evaluate our issue on Case 1940381. It looks like we needed to permit 2.4 basic rate of 5.5 even though we do not transmit at that rate. Partial configs below (wmm information missing since that is network dependent).

The error message and research indicated that it will not connect if there is more than one BSSID to choose from. It is definitely one of the more absurd things I've run across. We don't have any history with trying to connect to older models to know if this made any difference (we're using 225/224s and 215/214s in the residential halls). Newer 360s seem to connect just fine. -- Jonathan Waldrep Network Engineer Network Infrastructure and Services Virginia Tech On Wed, Jan 11, 2017 at 9:26 AM, Williams, Jess <jess-willi...@utc.edu<mailto:jess-willi...@utc.edu>> wrote: I'm reaching out to see if anyone has experienced issues with Xbox 360s not connecting to Aruba AP 215s or 225s? There aren't any issues with the 360s connecting to AP 105s.
