I'd be happy to share in that job.
My big beef with our brave new world is that you have to reboot everything.
Microwave display is screwed up....unplug it and plug it back in.
Washing machine digital display is not responding.....unplug it and plug
it back in.
DVD Player frozen.....unplug it and plug it back in.
Dodge Intrepid won't shift gears......turn it off and turn it back on.
These are all true stories.
The internet of things will be a network of crap that doesn't work
unless you reboot it regularly. When they are up, the "things" will all
be participating in a botnet.
finally someone took over Doug's job of letting us all know the sky is
falling!?!?
hip hip hooray...long live Ken the prognosticator!

Soon, when your Internet goes out, you won’t even be able to open

And as ISPs, we’ll be getting angry calls like “Is the tower
down? I can’t flush my toilet.”
You think I’m joking? Remember the thread about LED bulbs
interfering with garage door openers? One of the suggested fixes
is a garage door opener app on your smartphone. I assume that
only works if your smarthouse has working Internet. Our hives
will cease to operate if you cut the connection to the collective.
I’m imagining that something goes wrong with the cloud
controller, and now I can’t even use WiFi within my house, like
printing to my wireless printer or using Chromecast to my TV.
Yes, I know, Unifi should continue to operate without the
controller once set up, but do some features stop working? Like
handoff between APs?

You can host them all on a single controller in your datacenter.

Can't stand unifi, have them came up with a way to do it without
a controller? What do you do if the customer doesn't have a
windows machine? Install a unifi "server" ?

What are you guys doing to cover large homes with good
wifi coverage? Any options besides multiple routers with
multiple ssid's? Does rukus or someone make something
with true roaming?
