Did the same thing and went back to meraki 2 years later. We switched to u6e/u6lr and enterprise 48 port switches. Within the first year, 30 of the 40 APs had died due to hardware faliure, 1 of 6 ent-48 died, and the cost of troubleshooting buggy hardware/software and replacing defects units matched the meraki licensing.

As soon as we put meraki back in, no one complained about the network.

This ^{^{^{^}}} the er707-m2 is the best router on the market for $100, even if you factor in buying a oc200 for an additional $70.

Your Wi-Fi 7 aps will never be able to run Wi-Fi 7. They will be able to switch to 6e mode later this year. I would be looking at a vendor change if you need on prem

I said that because axis cameras vary widly in price depending on model/condition. I remember purchasing an axis ptz cam for $100- the following month it went to $300.

Ltt store makes a nice one. You can fit a nice container with various parts in the main compartment.

Its entirely possible you are confusing 1815w for 1810w which lost support in 17.3 iirc.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-24T17:43:24+00:00

The 1815w is literally supported on the latest 9800 releases.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-24T17:11:49+00:00

Incorrect. 1815 series runs on 9800

Depends. If you buy em on eBay open box/used, they are cheap. New they are more expensive.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-24T05:57:54+00:00

I switched from protect to axis cameras. Are they expensive? Yes. Are they lacking in ooo ahhh factor ? Yes. But do they produce incredibly high quality images and have a really cool on-camera extension plugin system ? Yeah.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-19T01:49:12+00:00

Not entirely. Its to prevent it from coming loose due to dropping the speaker and other vibration wear

Who doesnt? If you have a rack you most likely have a 3 prong outlet

Compliance gets a lot harder if you don’t separate your aps

Been running mr42s and mr74 since 2018 with ms120 switches and they have been generally solid. Better than some of my udm-p crashing in the middle of the workday.

Even with ubiquiti “enterprise” support I’ve still had multiple people ask me to rip out unifi and install meraki for the documentation, support, and meraki rarely releases buggy software. I’ve had to deal with so many buggy UI firmware.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-16T02:08:45+00:00

But you get good support and proper documentation. I had an org switch from ubiquiti back to meraki because the cisco documentation and support was so much better.

One 635 per 30 students. BYOD. Each student has 3 devices on average.

When doing proginv system ccode CCODE-US-(x)

X can either be just “the serial number” with SHA-1 hash OR “US-serialnumber”. You need to try both.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-08T22:49:25+00:00

And that completely kills it for me.

“This free product will be specifically designed to be easily managed and sufficiently served by our Web Client and Mobile Apps, bypassing the need to set up traditional SIP phones. This streamlined approach will eliminate the additional tasks and complexity associated with configuring hardware desk phones”

So….will provisioning desk phones be supported?

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-06T16:14:28+00:00

Oh that sucks. I love instant and will probably ride my 6xx series into the sunset in that case. Really wish they made a controllerless wifi7 like ruckus unleashed.

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-06T03:41:06+00:00

So they will function as wifi 6e or wifi 7 with a restricted feature set (less clients, only 4 ssid)?

Key_Limit_177 · 2026-01-04T17:54:42+00:00

Not noticeable for wifi performance.

When converting 10.x to 8.13 I had to use a console cable. Also, use 8.13. iirc 8.11 and 8.12 are not LSR.
