Jec, do you have any links to the actual hardware used? Tear down? What about ubnt us-8-150w heat issues? Too hot or acceptable? Does the gs520tlp get got? From what I can tell, it doesn't but that was only one report on Amazon.

GS510TLP or ubiquity us-8-150w poe+? Both are similar price.

Desperado, What kind of roam time do you get? Without r I'm getting about 100ms With r I get either 10ms, normal ping time or 100ms. It's not consistent. Though I've not done much testing.

Thanks desperado. In the FAQ section for apc on their website is a document for setting this up. I think it also details the mobility domain to. But you can guess that setup by reading a Cisco doc on 11r. That bit is fairly easy. I've not found any description of setting Mac address for 11r...

wasn't it last year that they were hit by a scam and lost several $mil?

Although I have never used Ubnt stuff, I would like to. Their forums are littered with various issues still and was the reason I steered away from them. As basic APs they are fine but I read about a VLAN issue recently that could affect you. Their transmission range appears quite variable...

Tim H, On the latest firmware these WAPs now support SMART ROAM. Can you ask your contact for information of what this is please? A doc I found states that it is for 11r but I've never come across a need to set MAC addresses for 11r before. Could this be part of a 11v feature? It now...

The APC500 now supports 128 APs. I think the wap1750 supports 16 with the radios off only. Any idea what the hardware specs are for this APC500? Can SNB use their contacts to find out please? Availability is still poor in the UK.

A possible solution would be to mount you main router higher in order to cover your house better. If you could operate the dlink in ranger extender mode instead of cabled, it might allow better roaming at the expense of max throughput.

I understand your pain. I bought 3 edimax pro 1750, although I only needed 2 in the end. These support k and r and perform well. Roaming is seamless using a common ssid but it is still a device decision. That means when a phone is heavily utilising WiFi then it will tend to stick. I have...

One issue I had coming from 1.3.13 to 1.6.0 was that my login password reset to edimax default of 1234. That took me 10 attempts to get in before I googled the default A good thing is that you can now change all the passwords via NMS now. Memory consumption appears higher. Sits at 70%. I...

Can you confirm which firmware you are using when the Self Management mode fails with a reboot loop please?

I use the AP in self management mode. I'm still on 1.3.13. if you're now using 1.4 and the feature doesn't work then I'll stay where I am for now.
