The rule is: One Apple device, ALL Apple devices. Apple does not play
well with others.

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.

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?
