HI Bruce,

Right now, we only have a small number of devices deployed in Administrative 
buildings and have not had an issue.  The devices do not see a lot of action 
and are used mostly for screen mirroring during a meeting.

We have not opened the service to student residence or attempted to use an 
AppleTV in a large auditorium.  This is where I would expect to see a problem.  
I will try to keep the list updated on our experiences if we attempt those.

RE: Aps.  We are not currently replacing the older Aps but have begun 
purchasing the new models for new installations.

Kevin,

Others in this thread have mentioned high wireless bandwidth usage problems 
when using wireless Apple TVs.

What is your experience with wireless network loading?

We are starting to roll out AirGroup using ArubaOS  6.3.1.7 & ClearPass 6.3.3. 
We are placing our Apple TVs on an open MAC-authenticated SSID due to the 
complexity of using 802.1X with Apple TVs, especially student owned devices.

We will also soon migrate our Gen-1 (AP-124/5) 802.11n APs to (AP-225) 
802.11ac. Anybody else going to be doing lifecycle management on replacing 
their early 802.11n APs?

We are connect them wireless only and use Aruba AirGroup/Clearpass to “control” 
them.
