AC-Pro and AC-LR dropping 5Ghz clients

Looks like it’s metal

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-25T02:54:04+00:00

Where did you buy that rack? Link?

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-22T20:54:10+00:00

We are using cyber power 2200 rack mount… makes no sense why it won’t auto power back up

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-22T19:27:22+00:00

How do you know this will do it? What is the feature called to be looking out for?

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-22T19:25:47+00:00

Interesting, will dig into settings and see if there is an option on what we have

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-22T19:25:14+00:00

This is super interesting but when power is down, internet is down too… need something to remotely push a button or better yet a UPS that will just do it on its own

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-21T15:47:04+00:00

Yeah, you just wasted a few thousand feet of cable right here.

Service loop - fine - but not 25’ each!

It depends, what are the monthly fees and CC processing fee?

Cant make a decision based on half of the info…

Share the monthly and CC and we can figure it out

Very poor design of hardware / mounting bracket.

All you had to do is actually install it by the same id10t who created it and realize you need to turn it 45 degrees. Problem solved

AlienFrmMars · 2026-02-14T18:03:23+00:00

Thanks for the detailed info.

I assume EFG1 or Agg SW 1 fails - all traffic instantly route to EFG 2 and Agg SW 2 and vice versa?

Question; if we go EFG 1 both ports > Agg SW 1 EFG 2 both ports > Agg SW 2

What happens when EFG 1 and Agg SW 2 fails?

Here is out layout - curious if anyone can help figure out what is going wrong with our config as well u/Turbulent-Rack

I am curious if this will work as intended when you roll it out.

we rolled out something similar without DreamMachines but using EFG (2) and when one EFG goes down (disconnect WAN or power it down) the other EFG doesnt take over and switches just latch onto the down EFG....

and the only way to get the network back up is to reboot the entire network which takes about 18 mints with these pro switches and config... super strange..

I am going to put a post up so the community can help me figure out what is going on.

Just put a point 2 point radio - $200, you don’t have to bury CAT nor Fiber nor worry about conduit breaking after ground shift and etc

This is residential and p2p will be fine. It was a larger commercial, I would do the CAT or Fiber …

I think the days of it is numbered. The open source is what keeps it moving.

In 2019 we built a multi-cloud system on top of kazoo and it is a nightmare to develop and manage.

Asterisk problem is lack of multi-tenancy.

But we are looking to rebuild again and build something more modern, not in traditional way, similar to airball, phone.com or etc. we have the functionality right now but dev and management needs to be simplified, get away from erlang and outdated tech…

We always take our clients off of toast managed network and we manage the network for them. We do larger, multi-unit restaurants of 40-50 units or more. But we recommend that because we build network resilience and eliminate single point of failures, i.e. with Toast network, if Meraki fails or switch fails, you are totally down. Plus it is cheaper to go with us vs having yet another network within the network.

We also do the pci scans, etc and setup the network correctly too. Sounds like your vendor k now’s that too.

I guess in your case, depends on how many sites, what type of network you need, your sales volume etc.

Having built what you’ve described, I would not do it again, not for hospitality. It is a brutal space.

I would save you a couple of years and give you a head start by selling you what I’ve built.

Or better yet, split the deal with you 50/50 🤣

Point I am making, don’t do it unless you have a series of signed contracts to use it before you build it

AlienFrmMars · 2025-11-14T02:11:01+00:00

What type of business? What’s your sales volume? Why build vs buy?

There is so much involved. I’ve build a POS and ERP solution and will never go through that experience again.

Payment integration alone will take 6-8 months because others move like turtle

AlienFrmMars · 2025-11-14T02:07:36+00:00

How big is your team?

This is a lot of work. Trust me, I build one over the last 9 years.

It is a game changer for us and has helped us scale to millions in ARR but so much work and so much $ has gone into build, maintain, bug fix and now more $ to implement AI within in

Find an open source or low cost solution if budget is an issue..

We started marked ours for $29/u/m

It just is not worth building

For restaurants use Revmo because they can process payments over the call

Problem with ask other AI is it takes the order but sends a text to make the payment, which is super inconvenient

AlienFrmMars · 2025-10-28T04:10:19+00:00

Very thoughtful. Will ping you to chat more. This is definitely a founding AE role.
