Hello everyone,

Just checking if you have recently come across any macbook zoom wireless 
dropout (and frozen screen) issues and have taken any step to resolve it.

So I have come across a Macbook running Catalina 10.15.7 reporting zoom 
dropouts from time to time.

The AP is 3700 and the controller model is 8540 running code 8.5.161.6. The 
session time out on the SSiD is set to 24 hours. The QOS is default "silver".

I was running debug on WLC (debug client mac) and AP and there is no helpful 
log generated at the time of issue. The utilization for both radios on the AP 
is close to 1% (not busy) and the noise and interference reported by AP is not 
unusual. The switchport have no errors etc.

I have searched this forum and few people have reported that the mac's were 
having issues with specific 5G channels. Some suggested to change few things on 
the mac (turn off unlock with apple watch) etc.

So if you have recently dealt with something similar, can you please share your 
thoughts and if you have resolved the issue, how did you do that (code upgrade 
etc.)?

Few things I can try:
-Set Qos profile to platinum
-Disable Aironet IE
-Configure Idle timeout on the ssid (less than session timeout) : currently it 
is default 5 minutes
-Disable 11ac MU-MIMO on ssid
-upgrade macos to Big Sur

Thanks,
Tariq
