When purchasing equipment, it must do at least 802.11n 5ghz and we steer 
towards the intel dual band cards.  2.4ghz is disabled on our campus.

Just wondering what everyone’s minimum standards look like for supported Wi-Fi 
devices. Or if your department has any defined.

We don’t enforce any sort of minimum bar aside from

-Your device needs to support 802.11a, g, n, or ac. 802.11b devices cannot 
successfully authenticate
-Consistent 2.4GHz-only connectivity usually cannot be guaranteed in residence 
halls.

At a glance, we’re usually only at about 0.3% 802.11g clients. Everyone else is 
a, n, or ac.

Thank you!
