Hey guys, greeetings from Buenos Aires. I'd been evaluating a Meraki 
solution after spending some time @ Blankspaces. The only thing that was 
holding me back were cost concerns and an undefined networked solution as 
Meraki was going to solve the wifi part of the puzzle (access control, 
open-mesh, QoS). 

We recently hosted an event for a group called Hacks/Hackers and they 
installed a tremendously simple set of small AP's 
(http://www.open-mesh.com) that created an instant mesh-network which were 
ccontrolled by the open-source CloudTrax 
http://www.open-mesh.com/index.php/cloud-controller). Worked like a charm 
for the 100+ attendees. 

I'm now thinking of going this route as the functionality seems to be 
comparable to Meraki but at 10% the cost. 

Anyone have any experience with this Open-Mesh AP's + Cloudtrax (cloud 
controller) combo solution? 

I'm looking to update the 6 consumer AP's I have distributed around my 
5,500sq ft. 2 floor space with aprox 70 members. I'm also looking to setup 
VLANS for each member's team (we have about 60%+ of our members in private 
offices. Not sure yet how we might integrate the wifi mesh network with the 
wired VLAN's. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
