Hello All, Im passing this along from my Network Engineers. I am lacking a a lot of details at the moment so please excuse me but the gist of it is, we just got new Cisco 802.11AC compatible access points and they seem to have no connectivity to disconnects with new Apple hardware using the same standard. Anyone seen this yet?

we aren't experiencing drops, but we are experiencing low transfer speeds (sub 200 Mbps). We're also not using Cisco. That being said, that sub 200 was higher than the Dell laptop, just not by much.
What OS? Have you tried the beta 10.9.2?

Im pretty sure the affected systems are 10.9 -10.9.1

We were running into a problem where the 802.11N devices were dropping due to a band steering. the AP was trying to control the band as well as the laptop. Have them look at the packet captures, they should be able to isolate what's going on by filtering on the wifi's mac address.
