802.1x Wifi Random Disconnection from Apple devices
-
They're running at iOS 11.4.1 and this started happening when I switched to using RADIUS authentication with pfsense being the FreeRADIUS server.
-
You are using the pfSense's Captive Portal ?
-
I doubt its a pfSense / FreeRadius issue, I have exactly the same setup and everything works fine.
You don't have Fast Roaming enabled on the Wireless Networks page do you ?
I'm also running 11.4.1.

No. I'm using Ubiquiti's captive portal.

Right, so I'm at a loss here. And no, I'm not using Fast Roaming for all my three wireless networks. Any more ideas?

Do you use the Ubiquity Captive portal and WPA2 Enterprise on the same SSID ?
-
No. I have three networks:
- Guest - with captive portal and open authentication.
- Main - with WPA2 enterprise authentication
- Legacy - with WAP2 personal authentication

Anything in the logs on the UCK ?

Don't know anything about "Ubiquiti". (although I heard a lot of good about these devices - have to try one ones)
I do know that the FreeRadius package has some extended log capabilities.
Put them on all, locate them, look at them.
Tell us also how you setup FreeRadius.I'm not aware of the fact that FreeRadius filters out Apple devices to give them a special treatment.
Btw : what do you mean by "Disconnection" : the get disconnected radio-wise (the Wifi carrier) - the portal throws away the firewall rules related to the Apple device ?
Note : not that it matters, and just a slightly helpful : I'm using FreeRaduis and the pfSense captive portal, and some pretty dumb "wire to radio converters" (== stupid no brain AP's that is)
It works soooooooooooooooooooooooooo good ;) -

Thank you for this!!! I feel stupid I didn't find this discussion :)
EDIT: In my defense, it's a new thread, lol.
