Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Windows 8.1 on the wireless
When have not seen this specifically, but have seen that many need drivers updated. Usually from the wireless chipset web site.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Windows 8.1 on the wireless
I have run into issues with Win 8.1 computers, especially if they have the newer Intel WiFi chipset with support for 802.11ac. The ac support isn't important, but the Intel wireless management is. If any of the Cisco extensions are enabled within the Intel utility e.g. CCX, we see trouble with association, re-association, etc. Same issue with it working in some areas and not in others, but I think that has more to do with roam vs initial association. For us, once we disable the Cisco extensions via the Intel Utility, the problem goes away.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Windows 8.1 on the wireless
Hi, We’ve seen issues with some of our Windows 8.1 BYOD clients with Broadcom chipsets since the update from 8.0. Devices would authenticate but they wouldn’t act upon the DHCP offer. Rolling back or installing older device drivers resolved the issue.
