Some Meraki gear include WAN accelerators, that's pretty sweet and dramatically brings down the cost compared to Riverbed et al.

Another happy new Unifi user here, replacing a power surged Airport. A lot stronger single, more functionality as an AP, and cheaper. Awesome.

Here's an interesting article on WiFi roaming, although skims over the technologies. Bottom line is the client always manages the hand-off as only it knows when it has the best signal. Without a controller you may get a new IP when changing access points and thus will lose any active network connections, such as VoIP or streaming video. edit to add content MrMoo fucked around with this message at 01:40 on Dec 7, 2012 |

I messed up, 802.11r doesn't even need a controller. What does apart from captive portals?

That's sweet, their forums were suffering rampant white knighting saying 802.11ac APs would not be available till 2015/6. Now just waiting on timb for laptops to match. MrMoo fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Mar 27, 2013 |

There are many homeplug-WiFi adapters but whether they work well with roaming is another question. Homeplug-PoE is not a logical combination, but its interesting trying to imagine what it means. (edit) holy cow, they exist: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Logitech-LA700e-A-Powerline-Homeplug-Adapter-/261281520214 MrMoo fucked around with this message at 21:18 on Sep 8, 2013 |

Manos posted:Is anyone else besides that smallnetbuilder article tracking the unifi ac throughput issues? Remember as in all smallnetbuilder reviews it is slightly flawed. The testing is for performance of a single client through the access point. The purpose of Enterprise access points is to scale up to many different concurrent users: compare with SCSI disks and SAN storage. There are tests linked on UniFi's site that show aggregate bandwidth of multiple users exceeding that of a single client. Also of note many access points may have tri-band support but the majority of client adapters only have dual-band support which is the minimum required for certification. Highest performance in benchmarks has thus come from bridging two access points together.

my UniFi AP-LR decided to be weird and bring up an IP but not SSH. Finally discovered to be some odd wiring and then the controller starting pushing out an upgrade. The upgrade proceeded to break the device and would not hard reset. There is apparently a weird rear end TFTP-server that pops up on 192.168.1.20 if you hold down the reset button when switching on so you can replace the firmware. Still confused that a restore from controller backup brings up every wireless network "open" but a reboot fixes that.
