I saw some similar rates on the success levels. My guess is that it's because devices that succeed then proceed to go about their business until they have to reauthenticate for some legitimate reason, while ones that don't have correct credentials just continue to hammer away.

I think we started getting them a few weeks ago. Yeah, we started getting them as well - I think they are very interesting. Our immediate question was whether information was aggregated somewhere or could somehow be compared with other institutions like ours, but the response was that the types of institutions are very disparate and that it might be something they look into for the future. One thing that I’m really curious about is the authentication success rates. I haven’t seen our semi-annual report that covers all of January-June, but just looking at the monthly reports, we’re around 68% success for the NU users who are traveling elsewhere (but June had a big dropoff to 55% down from 65% the month before) and ~51% for the guests who are visiting our institution. We don’t use eduroam as our primary SSID. -- Julian Y.
