Rated 5 out of 5 by from Issue with wireless N and Internet speedWhen the product is broadcasting in wireless N the LAN side works fine but the WAN side instantly dips to unbearable download speeds. On a Comcast 50/10 business connection you will get sub 1mb download. If you switch to b/g your transmission speed jumps to nearly advertised rates. Apparently many people have been experiencing this issue (check Cisco community or do a web search) for over 2 years now however it is still not corrected. I have had a case open with no resolution for over 2 months with varying answers and an overall response of we are working on it. I bought this product because I wanted the controller-less clustering ability which works great. However the inability to use wireless N makes it unusable. I also almost exclusively use Cisco small business products so this was very disappointing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good product at a good priceThis device was just what I needed to link up mobile mobile users. I have several mobile carts that need to go from room to room in our warehouse and not get disconnected. The single point setup allowed me to deploy 3 units and administrate them all at the same time. Wide coverage. Users can roam around and never lose connection. Good product at a good price. I am not a Cisco fan but this product was a perfect fix for my needs. Could not find any better.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product at a fair priceWe are using these in our remote offices for open customer wifi and they are working great. We power them using Black Box PoE Power Injector so additional ac wires don't have to be run. They have good coverage range. I also like that they come with mounting hardware.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not a bad little APNeeded wireless for the receiving area of 9 retail stores and these were super quick to install with POE and super easy to setup. Maxes out at 10 connected clients so make sure you scale properly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice wireless access pointVery easy to install and configure. Also extremely easy to configure just the first one, then the others will configure in seconds (they get config info from the first one).Very good value and recommended if you're looking for a good access point (or points) to install in a small office, church, or other areas.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It worksWe purchased this because we outgrew our VZ FiOS wireless supplied router that came when we upgraded from our previous cable provider. As with most Cisco products they are built for workplace productivity and this device does just that. Since installing we've had no network drops and their has been a noticeable drop in complaints regarding network latency.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bad ProductVery difficult to add to the network. Had to hire a cisco tech to install. Your competition is plug and play
