What firmware are you running onthe XW Ti's? We've been using 5.6B4, but it hasn't been updated in a long time. Earlier revisions had lots of "issues".

We're doing OKAY on the XW Ti's, they do handle the load better. 50+ subsper. Wish they had airmax offloading ofcourse. We do block torrents/magnet links though.This forces all torrent traffic to go through VPNs, which is fine by us as it doesn't cause a negative impact on the network.

Yeeeeaaaaa, I don’t’ think so. If you use Ubiquiti you pretty much know what works and what doesn’t. in reality, you use as few custom features as possible outside 802.11 compatibility and limit the radios to Layer 2 bridges or nothing more than NAT whenever possible. Try not to use any of the customer features although AirMax seems to be working pretty well. You just don’t want to add anything that adds to processor overhead on an AP for Rocket M5’s if you have a higher density. When the Titanium’s tanked a couple years ago, there was a huge hole in any kind of AP product with the ability to handle density due to the processor but nobody filled it. It still hasn’t been filled to my satisfaction meaning we aren’t replacing Rocket 5M’s any time soon and we are keeping them at 50 users or less for another few months. However, NetFlix and video streaming means we are pushing that down to a planned 30 over the next couple of months. That numbers are just estimates but somewhere between 30-50 under heavy video streaming usage and AirMax will start causing issues.

If you allow torrents or anything that opens up a massive number of connections, then the number of users per AP drops significantly which is why we run filtering on the back end to reduce that. I’ve seen APs with less than 30 go apoplectic with a couple of wild torrent users.

:-) the ubntboys tend to not be all that informed they blindly swear by whatever the spec sheets and feature notices tell them

For the first question, I have no idea, since the only released radios are PtP at this time. Pretty hard to tell.

For the second one, "ubntboys" (at least the informed ones) don't run airsync, because they know it doesn't work well. :)

        The ptp-lites do have airmax offloading? I thought they didn't...

        We've had a link running for awhile, but it's got some noise
        issues, so it hasn't really been the best place to test
        these... that said, they've been running fine without any
        real problems that I've noticed.

        ptp lites are missing the internal shielding (i think?) as
        well as airprism tech

        they do have airmax offloading, but it's also a brand new
        product line... some bugs are showing in the software

            How are the rocket AC's performing for you guys?
            Throughput? Bugs?
