I had a bad experience with it one time at a tradeshow environment. 6 =
access points setup for public wifi. The radio levels were quite good =
in various areas of the tradeshow however traffic would keep dropping =
out at random intervals as soon as about 300 users were online. It =
wasn't my idea to use UBNT but it definitely turned me off of their =
product after digging into their gear...
Again as someone pointed out, for residential and perhaps SOHO =
applications it can probably work well - and in my opinion it's priced =
for that market.

Dear nanog community=20
I was wondering if you can recommend or share your experience with APs =
that you can use in locations that have 300-500 users. I friend =
recommended me Ruckus Wireless, it would be great if you can share your =
experience with Ruckus or with a similar vendor. My experience with =
ubiquity for this type of requirement was not that good.=20
Thank you and have a great day=20
