Lee,
I've disabled them when asked, because in spots where I've
disabled them "wholesale", I invariably get a ticket (or more) that the AP
is offline, and wireless sucks, because there's no lights on the AP. I
enable the LED, and magically the wireless performance and coverage is
perfect.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Disabling LEDs on APs
First-world problems. Curious if others have gone down this road in
Residence Halls. We're not really being asked to, but are considering
wholesale disabling LEDs on our Cisco APs in the dorms as a quality of life
step. Has this caused anyone any pain when it comes to not being able to see
the colors on the AP as status indication? Have you actually had requests to
disable the LEDs? Overall experience with accommodating or denying the
request?
Thanks-
Lee Badman
