WEP was deprecated and manufactures can no longer include it in WAP’s certified after 2014 i.e. as WAPs are life-cycled you can’t support it even if you wanted to without moving them to an open SSID.

If so, what is your tool method? Do you prevent non-media and gaming devices from joining that network? (Ex, gaming SSID) P.S.

IMHO, your best bet is to work toward abandoning 2.4. In the early days, we did try outreach and education, but there are just too many devices today that use 2.4, and in many cases, users don’t even know it e.g. Apple’s Airdrop. You can minimize some of this by solving the reasons behind some of the interference sources i.e. install more WAPs to improve the service, reducing the rogue problem. Install residential printers to mitigate the need for student printers. Most of our residential is now designed around dense 5 GHz, and while 2.4 is available, it’s mostly ignored.

This is my first post to the group, so please be gentle. Here at the University of Lethbridge we are about to embark on a bit of an education drive for all of our wireless users with regards to the 2.4GHz spectrum and their impact on it. Does anybody have good examples of notices, posters etc. that they would be willing to share, that reference the evils of rogues and other interference sources citing the negative impact they have on the wireless network. Like everyone else on this list we are seeing huge influxes of our friends the wireless printer, Bluetooth devices and the like… if only we could just turn 2.4GHz off.
