Users have found ways to somewhat get it to happen, but not cleanly, but they dont have programmatic access to the device I know this is not a complicated thing, almost every single wireless product on the market these days supports it in some form or another. I could see hiding behind the "well, it wont work with our proprietary wireless algorithm" I can see that on the commercial side, but the home devices? I doubt anyone on this list is turning that on on airrouters or gateways for customers since most customers end devices arent ubiquiti products. I think they dont do it strictly out of spite now On Wed, Dec 31, 2014 at 7:55 AM, Mike Hammett via Af < af@afmug.com > wrote: <blockquote> They'll say, "We weren't aware anyone wanted that." That's what the vendors say when they don't want to actually tell us why they haven't done something. I haven't been too excited about multi-SSID in the macro network, but auto-associated and provisioned CPE would be nice. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com From: "Mark Radabaugh via Af" < af@afmug.com > To: af@afmug.com Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2014 7:53:17 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] It's time for a second SSID on the Air Routers and Air Gateways. Make that on all of the products. Two SSID’s on the AP - a ‘install’ SSID that the CPE can associate to by default, and a ‘sector’ SSID that we use to lock the CPE to the sector once it’s installed. What is so hard about this? Cisco Aironet AP's could do this 15 years ago.
