Yes we have, and this shows 5 ghz number of clients is growing, but 2.4 numbers
are growing faster.. so % wise the number of 5 Ghz clienst is declining.
best regards, Kees.

We also have around 25% of devices using 5ghz, it's easy
I think we were in a similar situation as you - we're an Aruba shop and needed
to switch to AES to fully support N connections. We have one SSID that is
using a pre-shared key for lab laptops. We simply switched the termination to
AES and those lab stations (both Windows and Mac) picked up the
Going back in time, there was buzz about devices lacking the math co-processing
power and such needed to support AES when WPA2 became available, so the TKIP
thing took root. It is my conjecture that any device of any kind manufactured
in the last few years that can run WPA/TKIP (enterprise) can
We went through the transition when we started buying 802.11n devices. For the
most part, we advertised this change as preparing our network for higher
wireless speeds with 802.11n.
When we cut over to WPA2/AES only on our main SSID we additionally dropped
802.11b support. We were finding
We changed from TKIP to AES over the past 6 months. We offered two SSID's and
then went AES only before this year's Orientation. So far so good. No
complaints.

Toivo,
You might want to consider to shut off 802.11b, it takes away valuable
'airtime' from the rest of your clients by slowing down potentially all
of your AP's with management and beacon frames only for 13
clients..
We did it via our captive portal, informing our clients about this.
