We're an Aruba shop and only seeing it on iOS and MacOS devices.

We’re an Aruba shop and have noticed similar behavior. We’re having
more incidents of intermittent connectivity issues this year than in
previous years, and most of those clients are making questionable
roaming decisions. It’s been really prevalent with iOS and MacOS.
Much less on Windows and Android. There’s always been problems with
picking a good radio when those devices first connect, but,
historically, once they were steered to a good 5GHz radio they stayed
there. They’re not staying there this year. We haven’t figured out why.

Wondering if anybody else is seeing this. We currently have devices
doing a lot of roaming between 5 and 2.4 radios, especially in the
dorms. I would not think anything of it normally, but they are moving
from a -52 to -58 on the 5 radio to a -75 or worse on the 2.4 radio.
This doesn’t seem to matter what SSID they are connected to. Band
select is enabled on all SSIDs. We are running Cisco 8540 WLCs on
8.10.130. Most of the complaints are coming from the dorms, so I am
not sure if it is happening on our other controllers with an older
code level.
Thanks,
