We have roughly 600 Cisco AP’s. It’s a mix of the 1142 and 3702i’s, but getting ready to triple that amount with all new Wave2 AP’s.
Our failure rate over the past 5 years is between 7-10 total. Four were from a lightning strike, but the others were the 1142N model and are in areas that aren’t in the best environment for electronics. Shayne ---------------------------------- T.
