Years ago I searched for every tip on making iDevices happy and implemented all of them, now I'm scared to undo any of it, and I don't know if any or all of them are helping.
I think the list included setting preamble to long, WMM on, lengthening the group key timeout, maybe some others I'm forgetting. Also Apple seems to prefer 5 GHz even if 2.4 GHz has a better signal. Not sure if any of that is relevant. I don't have any E400's so I can't comment on that. -----Original Message----- From: AF <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Nate Burke Sent: Thursday, September 12, 2019 10:52 AM To: Animal Farm <[email protected]> Subject: [AFMUG] Apple, Cambium, Mikrotik and DHCP I'm doing WIFI at a Hotel using E400 Ap's and Mikrotik hotspot. About once a week, there will be a device, it always seems like an Apple Device, that refuses to get a DHCP lease. The Mikrotik Log fills with entries dhcp offering lease 'IP' for 'MAC' without success If I go in through CNMaestro and kick the user, they will re-associate either to the same AP or a different AP, and then immediately get a DHCP Lease. There are other people on the AP working just fine. Is there something about Apple products, like it's in a sleep mode when it connects to the WIFI and doesn't request the DHCP Properly when it wakes up until it re-associates? -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
