We only have about 330 APs at the moment but have had two failures. One
from an airhandler drip pan overflowing right into the AP and the other
was from a lightning strike on an external bridge AP. We use Ruckus for
the last 5 years. We have 1800+ students in dorms on campus.

It is close to the entry-level by Cisco. WAP4410N is an AP that is POE
without being a router. Price is around $150.00 I believe. We used them
when initially expanding our wireless from Extreme 300 APs. We still
have some in smaller areas as we fully transition from Cisco to Ruckus.

We use Ruckus 7962s and have found meshing with a Zone Director to be a
good solution; our problem also includes some oddly shaped dorm
buildings and found meshing has improved response.

We have gone to Ruckus in our dorms due the way the APs handle rogue
devices and other interferences (wireless controllers, remote controls
for tvs, microwaves, wireless printers, etc.) The switch seems to have
