Like others we have had plenty of issues through 8.0 and 8.1 Broadcom specifically has been one of our recent issues on 8.1.
Various driver revisions didn't work, however we found that disabling "Bluetooth collaboration" under the Advanced tab to resolve the issues we were having. -- Jason Cook Technology Services The University of Adelaide, AUSTRALIA 5005 Ph : +61 8 8313 4800 From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of T. Shayne Ghere Sent: Thursday, 5 December 2013 3:55 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Windows 8 and Broadcom wireless cards Good morning, I was wondering if any other school is having issues with the Broadcom Wireless network cards running Windows 8/8.1 pro on a WPA2/AES network? We have students that are upgrading their Dell computers from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and the cards stop working on our secure network. They are prompted for 802.1x credentials, and the ACS server authenticates them as well as the DHCP server handing out an IP address, but the computer always states limited or no connectivity. What is really weird is that we have a 1232AG radio and the card will connect ONLY to the A radio, but not to the 1142N-A radio. We are running 7.0.253.5 code because of the older AP's on campus. We did purchase a separate controller for a test environment which we have running 7.4.110.0 now and it still won't connect to the 1142n-a radios. Trying to back the driver down to Windows 7-64 bit doesn't work (won't allow it to be installed). Any ideas? Thanks Shayne ----------------------------- Bradley University T.
