Same here. I’ve played around with Ekahau. It has some nice features and a slightly different approach, but I’m so used to walking around with AirMagnet that I stayed with it. -dan — Dan Brisson Network Engineer University of Vermont On 2/17/16, 7:12 PM, "The EDUCAUSE Wireless

Yes, the flexible radio design is definitely interesting. I’m interested to see how it plays out in terms of shuffling clients between APs based on what radio is available. I wanted to ask…have you considered the 702W for your res halls? It really seems to be the way to go in terms of

We are seeing the switch ports used, mainly for gaming devices like Xboxes or for gaming PCs, but that's it. Since our jacks are directly to the left or right of the door at about hip level, the ports are definitely accessible. -dan Dan Brisson Network Engineer University of Vermont >

We've deployed around 150 or so in one complex although we're fortunate to have them mounted just to the left or right of the door at about waist level. Still have the concerns about getting knocked around with furniture, but so far so good. Hopefully the DNS discovery issues have been

Good info…thanks, John! I did want to mention that for our 1810Ws, we are enabling the LAN ports so the students can plug in wired devices. We had to go through a couple different iterations of how that was going to work due to the fact that we wanted those ports to drop out on the building

Kevin, We used these for the Torx screws on the 1810Ws: https://www.amazon.com/Mini-Torx-Security-Screwdriver-Tool/dp/B01BG8P2Q6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8=1469121273=8-1=tr6+torx+security+screwdriver They work great. We have not used any locks. Our 1810Ws are going into student rooms where the

Wanted to report that we also started seeing APs lose their hostname (and some lose their entire minds) around the time we went to 8.2. I just got off the phone with one of our techs who physically rebooted an AP and I’m now waiting to see if it will come back. When the AP is in the “bad

Wow…that is dense. Are you using RRM for power levels? In our new dorm that’s full of 1810Ws I’m seeing the 5ghz radios set themselves to power levels 5-7, meanwhile the 2.4ghz radios are at about the same. I’m planning to turn off the majority of 2.4 radios, but not sure I like how low the

I have found with Cisco’s 1810Ws that we can get more than one room. Obviously, this depends greatly on building construction, but we can typically get at least 3 rooms covered with one Access Point. It’s really not that much more than deploying the larger APs. I am looking at between 2-3x
