Ken, (just throwing a flashing experience of our own...) Does it flash when you connect just one AP-1200 or if you connect many AP-1200? Switches or Midspan can only handle as much as the power supply can provide. So if you overload the system it will flash. We have had that problem when

Don, We have two separate SSIDs that do 802.1x ut-wpa2 and eduroam, across campus. This separation is creating a lot of confusion to our community. Sometimes they wonder why use one versus the other! We would like to redesign this and only have the eduroam SSID, but separate the traffic based

Air is so noisy in the Microwaves range these days (cellular, Wi-Fi, you name it...), I would think that people that use spectrometers that are sensitive to Microwaves have to worry about a lot more things than just University based Wi-Fi. Why not isolate the spectrometer instead of the Wi-Fi?
