Also, the AppleTVs do not have an internal battery, so when the device is unplugged or suffers a power loss, the time will reset which will cause issues with 1x authentication. I've also heard that it may lose the 1x config after a power loss.

It can't be configured directly from the Apple TV itself. It has to be done using the Apple Configurator software and pushed to the Apple TV via the USB port on the back (at least that was the case the last time I looked at this). A good gotcha to note for anyone trying this...it's possible to use an HDMI cable with too large of a connector which covers the USB port on the Apple TV. One of our staff ran into this trying to push a WPA2 Enterprise profile to an Apple TV. The USB cable had to be plugged in to push the profile but there's some on-screen dialog to work with too apparently that requires the HDMI cable to be connected. Hooray for technology. -Brandon From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Duling Sent: Friday, November 16, 2012 12:54 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Apple attempting to fix their faux-paus Necessity is the mother of invention. This has probably been mentioned before, but this reminds me of AppleTalk zones. All that had to be worked out in advance to gain acceptance in business, but now IT is being "consumerized" and so the process is reversed once demand reaches critical mass. And the article says Apple TV doesn't support WPA2 Enterprise. Didn't they add that in the last Apple TV software update?

Not sure how "angry" we all are, but certainly frustrated by hoops required to try to make anything out of Bonjour on big networks. Hopefully, Apple moves quickly and delivers something that is the right fit. That they responded is awesome, but whether they work with any real customers for beta testing or whatever remains to be seen. -Lee Lee H.
