I have not seen this here at Liberty University with our Aruba 6.3.1.16 
network. We will be moving to 6.4 soon.

In fact, I use a Surface Pro 3 as my daily computer.

Subject: SSID jumping with Win 8.1 (Surface Pro 3) on Aruba

  Anybody else seen this?  I’ve seen devices reconnect to the sane SSID as a 
previous session, and I believe I’ve seen them connect to an SSID that was “the 
only one visible.”  But twice now, I’ve seen my Surface Pro 3, in the midst of 
logging in to our “primary” SSID, suddenly bring up the login page for our 
secondary “guest” Wi-Fi service, to which it had never previously been 
connected….
  Is this a Windpws 8.1 (mis)feature?  An Aruba bug?  A quirk of the wireless 
interface chip Microsoft chose to use in he Surface Pro 3?
   Or perhaps something else, stranger than I can imagine?
