I get you (and thanks for the detail)- but in dense environments where APs are
at low power and plentiful to accommodate large numbers of users, the antenna
pattern largely goes out the window to a certain extent. Covering for range? I
completely agree with you (I design and build amateur radio
I'd bring the 1250 to a bar fight. It's more Medieval.

the fact that over the past 2 years our wireless usage has doubled from the

I have to chime in here...
We've deployed close to 2000 Aruba APs at Emory (AP60/61's) over the last 5
years. In that time, we've had less than 10 fail because of hardware. I've
had something like 20 more damaged in the ResHalls - mostly someone threw a
ball and broke the flipper antenna on
To answer your question,
We went direct from the WLC to Windows IAS (IAS on Server 2008 is actually
called NPS (Network Policy Server))
Just a note, if you have ACS, ACS supports Computer account authentication
natively as of 4.2, so you would not need to proxy requests over to IAS:

Based on that line, I had two images pop in my mind:
The first one was Lee Swinging two 1142n (one in each hand) like a ninja.
1142? Come on, now, think big! The AP1252 weighs over six pounds and
has six antennas
I believe this would fall under the built-in theft deterrent feature.

Justin,
No heat-related rumors started at all. The point here was that the
construction of APs differ from vendor to vendor. We pulled apart every
AP we got, and when it came to which would likely be more durable over
the long haul, the Cisco devices won. Others may come to a different
decision,
Heh cisco never allowed me to pull one open cuz that violates the
warranty. I have seen the innards of a cracked AP125 though. The
cisco aps are solidly constructed from what can be told on the
outside. And they do seem a lot less likely to suffer from physical
damage. The point I was
I just don't like the this one feels hefty so it must be more
