Stefano Marinelli<p>Today, I decided to bring one of my MikroTik access points out of the closet, a CAP AC. I used two of them in my home for almost 4 years with no major issues before switching to Omada WIFI6 devices. Later on, I switched to Ruckus, and one of them is now my primary home access point. I managed to reduce from two access points to just one. While one of the Omada units lost signal in far corners of the house, the Ruckus remained stable.</p><p>Meanwhile, MikroTik has started supporting wave2, so I decided to give it a test. I removed OpenWRT (which I had installed for testing purposes) and reinstalled RouterOS 7.18. After setting it all up and turning off the Ruckus, I noticed slightly lower coverage compared to the Ruckus, but the stability was comparable, with all the benefits of RouterOS. Definitely a nice surprise, and for me, MikroTik remains a genuinely honest company that continues to update old devices for a long time without imposing artificial limits or paywalls. I use their devices a lot, even for clients, and everyone is very satisfied.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/MikroTik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MikroTik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WiFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WiFi</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Networking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Networking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/RouterOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RouterOS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WiFi6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WiFi6</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/AccessPoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AccessPoint</span></a></p>
Stefano Marinelli<p>For a long time, I used three access points at home. A few months ago, I decided to downsize and see if, with technological advances, I could reduce the number of APs. Obviously, the more remote areas would be penalized, but at the moment I don't need a lot of bandwidth, just stability. So I kept only the Omada 670 - hung from the ceiling, roughly in the center of the house. The coverage was fairly complete, except for a few unimportant corners. It was ok-ish.</p><p>I had the opportunity to get a Ruckus R550 at an interesting price (for a Ruckus, of course) and, despite having lower speed performance than the Omada, I wanted to try it. Initially I was disappointed. The coverage was almost the same (but the Ruckus is in a slightly worse position, about a meter from the Omada but resting on a wooden piece of furniture), so I didn't see the advantages. However, I left it running, since I had it. The network remained stable for months.</p><p>A few days ago I needed the poe injector I use for the Ruckus (while the Omada is powered by its own power supply) so I reconnected the Omada and turned off the Ruckus. Same channels, same configuration.</p><p>Suddenly, I realized the difference. Even seeing (almost) the same signal levels from the monitoring apps, the actual performance is very different. Even in a distant room with many walls (of brick and concrete) in between, the 5Ghz signal of the Ruckus remains stable and reliable, while with the Omada it was much less stable. As "bars", almost the same. But with the Omada it is a continuous packet loss and switching to 2.4 GHz. Moreover, the most distant device (a Raspberry PI A+ with FreeBSD) with the Omada loses signal several times a day, with the Ruckus no problem and despite having a minimum bandwidth, it does not lose packets.</p><p>Going back to the Omada for a few days showed me that yes, there are differences. Yesterday I reconnected the Ruckus. Gone, again, all the problems. Of course, with the cost of a Ruckus (on offer) I get 3 "superior" Omadas, but the difference is there.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WiFI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WiFI</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Omada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Omada</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Ruckus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ruckus</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Networking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Networking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Wireless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wireless</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/AccessPoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AccessPoint</span></a></p>
Sander Meijer<p>One of my access points is failing (more and more short disconnects) and I'm looking for a solid upgrade for my wifi setup. Have to cover approx 150 m² (1600 ft²) with an unfortunate bend in the apartment (walls are blocking the wifi signal), so at least two access points are needed. I do not have the option to use PoE (sounds unnecessary to implement PoE access points but with a need to buy two PoE switches as well. I do not need to wall/ceiling mount them.</p><p>Does anyone has options? The setup needs to be rock-solid (a non-extreme higher price for that is accepted). 🙏 </p><p><a href="https://social.spiezmaestro.ch/tags/wifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wifi</span></a> <a href="https://social.spiezmaestro.ch/tags/network" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>network</span></a> <a href="https://social.spiezmaestro.ch/tags/askfedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>askfedi</span></a> <a href="https://social.spiezmaestro.ch/tags/accesspoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accesspoint</span></a></p>
