That would be a nice feature to have and I have been on them about that.

Most of the issues are related to firmware. Most of my UBNT experience was with 
the UAP-Pro and the UAP-AC, and it wasn't a good experience. Production 
firmwares seem to be of beta quality. 


For features, they can't compete with Ruckus. One thing I can think of off the 
top of my head is support for tagging management on its own VLAN and tagging 
wired traffic onto another. If you were to implement this on the UBNT products 
you would have to SSH into every single one and implement the features as you 
would on a linux box, and it might work. Ruckus, you configure the VLAN's how 
you would want through the Zonedirector or the AP's GUI and it will just work. 


They cost more, but you get what you pay for.

Did you figure out why it was dropping out? All of it dropping out? Just some 
APs dropping? Just some users dropping?

I had a bad experience with it one time at a tradeshow environment. 6 access 
points setup for public wifi. The radio levels were quite good in various areas 
of the tradeshow however traffic would keep dropping out at random intervals as 
soon as about 300 users were online. It wasn't my idea to use UBNT but it 
definitely turned me off of their product after digging into their gear... 

Again as someone pointed out, for residential and perhaps SOHO applications it 
can probably work well - and in my opinion it's priced for that market.

What problems have you had with UBNT? 

It's zero hand-off doesn't work on unsecured networks, but that's about the 
extent of the issues I've heard of other than stadium density environments.

Dear nanog community 

I was wondering if you can recommend or share your experience with APs that you 
can use in locations that have 300-500 users. I friend recommended me Ruckus 
Wireless, it would be great if you can share your experience with Ruckus or 
with a similar vendor. My experience with ubiquity for this type of requirement 
was not that good. 

Thank you and have a great day
