No Meraki device has WCCP support.   The other bad news is that you will probably get very little caching out of a transparent proxy these days.  That is because a lot of content is delivered over https.   I wouldn't be surprised if you only got 1% caching. ... View more

From my calculations, if you added 141W of solar capacity and it was 100% efficient (hahaha) then you could keep running during the day.   You could consider a 200W solar panel.  They are about 1.5m high and a 1m wide - so a tad tricky to carry - but would give you the ability to operate for quite some time - if the sun remains shining - leaving the batteries for when it was not shining.   A deep cycle "gel" battery is only about 20kg.  So not too heavy.  The bonus with this is if after 24 hours or so you start to run low just take it out to a vehicle, start it up, put the jumper leads on - and charge it up on the spot.  Handy huh?   You could also use a much smaller solar panel (say 100W) with a deep cycle battery and leave it trickle charging all the time.  The battery would eventually go flat still (because it sounds like you are using 141W of power) - but it would give you considerable running time. ...

Great job.  This looks like it is mounted on something fixed. Is this in a vehicle?  Or is this for in a building when the building services have failed?   Have you considered just using a plain old deep cycle [heavy] lead acid vehicle battery? ... View more

Different antennas focus the RF energy in different ways.  So if you don't need coverage behind the antenna, it can focus it all forwards.  This provides better signal in front of the AP, and much worse behind it.   That is the compromise.  To improve signal in one place, you have to take it away from somewhere else.   That is why the antenna's have radiation patterns in their spec sheets, so you can see the gain in each direction. ...

The advantage of the MR42E over the MR42 is that you can select different antennas.  I couldn't recommend an antenna unless we knew what environment the AP was going into.   This is the spec sheet for the antenna you asked about: https://meraki.cisco.com/lib/pdf/meraki_datasheet_MA-ANT-3-C.pdf The blurb says: "The Panel Omni antenna is ideal for low ceiling aesthetic conscious installations where wall penetration or extended reach are important. Some example uses are low-density deployments like schools and hotels to provide basic low-performance connectivity. These types of best-effort deployments usually have APs installed in the hallway to cover adjacent rooms." ... View more

In fact the "deny local LAN acess" blocks access to all RFC1918 address space - so does exactly the same thing.  it also says "This feature can be used in both Bridge Mode and NAT Mode.".   https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Firewall_and_Traffic_Shaping/'Deny_Local_LAN'_settings_in_Cisco_Meraki_MR_firewall ...
