Do you think I'll lose anything wall mounting the R510/R610 12 inches off the ground?

I was able to cancel my order for the u25x and bought an i3-7100u box with 64gb SSD and 8gb RAM direct from Qotom's storefront in ebay. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

You are right about Open Mesh. All of their products, even the ones introduced within the last year, are End of Sales this month and EoL in 2021. You can get the Datto-branded A42/A62 but they're only available through VAR's (bleh).

Trip, your advice is awesome! Thank you for turning me onto Ruckus Unleashed and HPE Aruba! I would have liked to put together a more powerful box like a Protectli/Qotom but I placed an order for an Untangle u25x appliance with Untangle HomePro pre-loaded yesterday. Here's what I have so far...

I'm not concerned about coverage with Plume, I was just commenting that I hadn't had a chance to evaluate it from that standpoint. I suppose you're right though, with a mesh/AP approach coverage is less important...just add additional nodes where you need it. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Why put IoT devices on their own separate VLAN? How are wireless IoT devices managed by a switch? Do you set the switch as the gateway for those devices? Or do they hit the switch off the hardwired AP's? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Thanks for the reply. I like your recommendation to use the injectors. The only thing is that I'll probably install 3 or 4 AP's and could see myself adding 2 or three cameras at some point eventually. Regarding guest vlans from a managed switch... Doesn't that capability exist within some AP's...

Hi All, I just got done reading through the 'help me build me build a top of the line setup' thread a few posts down, which parallels my upgrade project. Rather than hijack his/her thread I thought it'd be best to start my own... I'm a self taught part-time IT Manager at a small company (<50...

Would you please provide links for n66u and ac56u please? Thanks in advance.

Anyone care to comment on v108 vs 114? I care about speed and stability over all else.

Didn't you know...the cold war is over! :D

They put the BETA tag on for a reason.

I would name mine different ssid's. That way it's easy to tell what band you're on.

Speedtest.net shows my 2.4 Ghz connection is half the speed of my 5Ghz radio. However, for some strange reason browsing the web on the 2.4Ghz radio is far snappier than the 5Ghz radio on my smartphone. I don't have a laptop to compare radios but I'm going to grab a laptop with a 5Ghz/2.4Ghz...

Did you assign a static IP to your printer and have you tried pinging it?
