I just replaced equipment on a site for an ePMP conversion. I installed a RB911G-2HPnD with a virtual AP. It works wonderfully.
We used to use the RB951-2n routers for customers, but we had a lot of issues with them between really poor coverage and some interesting wireless issues. We moved over to RB951Ui-2HnD for our customers and they seem to work much better with more CPU, RAM and a different wireless chip (though I don't know much about either chip). The RB951-2n routers just don't seem to cut it for our usage, and for $15 more (MT listed price) it seems like the switch was worth it.
