Hi Richard,
We've been using Meru APs & Controllers for a number of years. We've
had fewer problems with clients since moving from Cisco APs. Like
others have mentioned, if people have a problem, the first thing we
suggest is update to the latest drivers. That usually fixes the problem.

Hello,
I have a question for other Universities who are using Meru wireless
802.11n networks. We are in the process of doing a Proof of Concept on
Meru’s technology of single cell architecture. We ran into a few issues
and I was wondering how other universities are dealing with these kind
of issues or maybe they didn’t experience any issues at all.
We noticed that clients with older drivers were unable to connect to the
Meru network but after updating the drivers it worked fine. For example
Intel 3945ABG chipset needed the 12.x driver to connect. So the default
driver in Microsoft Vista is out dated. We have about 40,000 students
and they all have their own laptop. Does anyone had to deal with this
kind of problems? And how did you manage it in a large environment?
Does anyone experience that Meru is very demanding on client
configuration and driver and hardware versions?
Thanks.
