I would agree with what has been said. We have 4 arrays set up and have had no problem with any of them. I take that back I had one that required a software update because it kept resetting itself every 12 minutes or so. When I had my original survey done we thought one array would cover two floors of my elementary building but the signal was very weak in the corners of the lower floor. Xirrus did give us a free array to cover the lower floor which greatly improved our signal strength.

But how many arrays do you have from them. And would you be willing to let me come see what you have setup down there?

I have the A/B/G arrays no N, but I would love to upgrade to N. I have nothing but great things to say about Xirrus and their support. I will also be the first to admit their products have gotten expensive, but managing arrays rather than multiple separate APs is great. Karl H.

I got my quote for a my entire building and it is quite a bit expensive in my book. But I want to know, DOES IT WORK? If it does I would be willing to spend money on it. And what would you got with the wireless N or not? Also what kind of warrenty are on all this stuff? Please give me feedback asap.
