HI All

I am getting the below rogue AP alert, the devices are Windows laptops, internet sharing is disabled so it's not that. This alert happens at least once a day and I have run out of ideas to resolve it.

1 rogue AP on the LAN network in the xxxxx organization has been detected.

SSID Rogue because Last seen at # of APs detecting # of APs containing

DIRECT-QHBLAKE-PCLAPTOP-RSBD

Someone is probably routing the connection. Not much to do. But you know that a rogue AP is not necessarily malicious, correct?

In this regard, Cisco WLC is more efficient than Maraki.

@alessandrodematos Yes I know that it they are not always malicious. My issue is the false positives and being alerted when someone powers their laptop on. Something must be triggering it.

We only have this issue with a small percentage on Windows laptops, Apple laptops and the majority on Windows laptops are fine.
