Likewise.

 

I had to reboot it every couple of months on order to alleviate session stalls 
or slowdowns.

 

Their management philosophy hides basic admin details from you, such as: what 
firmware is the device running. When contacting support, they told me there was 
later released firmware for the device. When I asked why it had not updated  
and/or how I could initiate or check that , there was no good answer returned.

My experience with a free Meraki AP was not good.

Folks:


The owners are NOT happy about our Meraki wireless. I had the splash page 
turned on for a while and this seemed to confuse them, but I disabled that and 
they still complain about “it doesn’t work”. I haven’t been able to get my tech 
support guy on their laptops (Mac’s) to take a look, but I went on the wireless 
(my office is next door to one owner) and it worked OK

 

I did notice a few sporadic slow-downs occasionally. 

 

I’m wondering if the cloud management stuff means if the Meraki web site is 
busy, the user workstation gets a slowdown

 

Has anyone else noticed that?

 

Wireless strength and connectivity is fine, but I do notice a lot of 
‘disconnect’ events from their laptops. I opened a Meraki ticket and they 
basically thought it was the laptop – but their laptops are fine (they work 
well at their home apparently).
