Around 550 Cisco AP’s. Had 1 dead autonomous 1131 and 2 damaged 2602’s from waterleaks in the last 5 years. Pretty happy with that.

So anecdotal Perhaps 1 DOA every 400 AP’s Sitting at about 10 failures for installed AP’s the last 2 years. But about 7 of that would be the +10 year old 1131 models So gone pretty well for us Ignoring of course damaged AP’s. mostly water leaks From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeremy Gibbs Sent: Thursday, 28 April 2016 6:49 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Access Point Failure Rate 5 years, 315 APs, 0 failures.

Their older a/b/g model (MP-422 for those in the Trapeze/Juniper boat) had a problem of burning out the signal amplifier if the power was turned up too much. Before I arrived all the APs were cranked to the max; after setting more reasonable power levels, we’ve had no other problems.
