[WIRELESS-LAN] Meru Controller Ver 3.6.1MR4 OSX 10.6.8-10.7+
All, Wondering if anyone using a Meru Controller running 3.6.1MR4 or lower are seeing the same issues. We are seeing between 300ms to as long as Timed out ping times on computers running 10.6.8 - 10.7+ inside our Meru network. Our Pc's as well as our 10.6.4 clients have network ping times of 4-15ms We have opened a ticket with Meru and they are working on it in their labs. Just wondering if anyone has seen this and if they have found any type of fix for this.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Dual radio APs, .11n on 2.4ghz radios or not?
Thought I'd jump in this one, sorry if I'm late to the game, I'm a Meru customer and you do not have to have all the aps on the controller broadcasting the same speeds. Broadcast speeds are set in the ESSID section (virtual Cell). I have virtual Cells on campus that have B disabled and the slow speeds of G disabled, while I have other Cells that have all speeds enabled for all 802.11 protocols. All our access points terminate at a single controller. Best, Ryan T.

I just took exception to the broad brush of painting *all* controller based systems with this deficiency.

Hi Bruce- Your confusion is justified. Though I was at the Aruba conference, I am a Cisco customer. I should have put a finer point on my lament- I wish ALL controller-based wireless systems allowed for per AP settings like data rate variances. :) Lee Lee H.

OK, Lee now you have me confused. I have seen you at Aruba user conferences, so I thought you knew their product. I have heard Meru prefers a common setup for all APs on a controller (or at least they did), but I did not think you were using them. Our Aruba system lets us set data rates on an AP or AP group per SSID and the whole multi-controller system is managed from a central interface. Aruba has had these features since before we started evaluating them in late 2006. Even if you set the rated per AP group, you can customize individual APs apart from the group, This is useful if there they have only a couple of settings different from the group. I do not know how long running your beef has been, but that was solved years ago. Aruba also lets you steer clients to the 5GHz band to you can reserve the 2.4GHz band for b/g/n users. Of course, they also handle multicast video over Wi-Fi well too. Note: I am not an Aruba salesman. Just a happy customer.

One of my long running beefs with controller based systems is that data rates settings are per controller. Would be nice to be able to set the two APs I might need for scanners to 11b rates, while letting the other 498 do no less than 5.5. Perhaps I want too much... Sigh.

We're also running into similar issues with purpose-built PDAs, of the type used to scan tickets and inventory etc. Also, I seem to recall that Nintendo DS will not associate if it doesn't see the 1 Mbps rates. How other universities are dealing with discontinuing support to existing devices would be interesting to hear - or if there's a technical solution someone has devised for this. Toivo

Russ, I encountered a Samsung Captivate that was using an incorrect subnet mask, i.e., ignoring the mask received in the DHCPOFFER. This resulted in the device ARPing for addresses outside of its subnet, which in turn, it did not receive responses for. The user symptom was that DHCP succeeded, but no traffic beyond that passed.
