You can mount it in the wall or ceiling. You use the same bracket, and anchor to wall or ceiling according to your surface. The radiation pattern will change. Depending on your room size / coverage area, this may or may not matter. For example, I have one in each classroom. Some are wall mounted and some are ceiling mounted. Due to the size of the classroom, coverage wise it makes no difference for our needs/use case.

Check your DHCP server. It means more than one client/device is using the same IP address. Go to Clients view and sort by IP address (depending on how many clients you have). Cycle the port or client and that should fix for now. If it happens again or frequently, then more troubleshooting is needed.

You don't even need a branch dashboard. You can add it to your main dashboard and label/tag the camera for the branch.

Is there a way to issue a reset command from the dashboard? I can do a reboot from the dashboard, and I can press the button at the camera, but I want to "press the button" remotely. I have a camera which is difficult to reach and is giving me problems. I would like to reset it remotely if possible.

Is there only one switch? If all WAPs and other switches are Meraki, why change this one? (Don't looking to start an argument, but rather reconsider the pros/cons of making the change. Meraki works so nicely when all the equipment is on the dashboard for monitoring, configuring, troubleshooting.)

What are the top network challenges (e.g. troubleshooting, planning, support, etc.) that currently have the biggest impact on your team's capacity? Optimization. How to check if all devices are optimized? Wireless signal coverage; channels/bands; switch settings; port settings. Settings might be working OK, but how to tell if they are optimal? And as a followup, if you could wave a magic wand and automate/accelerate parts of your network operations today, what would you wish for? Client traffic. Most traffic, least traffic, what traffic is it. In an easy to understand view. Top 25 clients, top WAP, top switch, etc. Same for bottom/least. For the traffic, show me in plain english what websites are creating the traffic.

Trying to understand (not sarcastic, but out of ignorance), how are these tools different from the heatmap functionality in the Meraki Dashboard?

I have 112 cameras deployed at our school. When on LAN, my delay is under 4 seconds, which is fine for our needs. Two seconds is very common. You will have a 1-4 second delay when on LAN. If this is a deal-breaker, you may have to look at traditional systems.

I want to have a computer connected to a large screen somewhere in our school (IT, Admin) that shows in one screen a live view of the Meraki network. Usage, clients, status of devices. I can get most of these from different places in the current Dashboard, but I want to put them in one screen that I can add/remove widgets as needed. Attached is a very ugly sample view of what I'm after. Just sharing here FYI. I'm thinkin of "command central" "mission control" type of screen. When myself or admin asks "how's the network?" I'll answer All good... let's go look at the "Meraki Monitor" screen.

Change the LED to multi color. Show green / yellow / red according to dashboard status.

What is the closest to a live-view of the network? Or is this a wish list item? Or is this not a normal request (networking rookie)? I want to log into the Dashboard, go to Live View (or whatever is closest) and see what's happening on the network live... traffic, most active AP, most active switch, top 10 clients, etc. Similar to clients view or summary view, but instead of past 2 hours I want to view and update live. Thanks for any insight into this.

Unlikely due to the FW update, but could be related to a reboot. Do you have a PoE injector so you can test power to it? You said no status light at all?

Thank you everyone for your input. I'm going to test the MV12N, MV12W, and MV72X, one in each corner, and go from there. Install is relatively easy, so I can install/swap/move as needed. Agree on MV32 (360), which will give me a good all around, but not a good close-up view anywhere due to distance and height.

K-8 school in South Florida Currently 3 cameras on the south side of the court. Well protected from weather. Two are MV72, one is MV22. See attached photos for issues and ideas. Options I'm exploring: 1) Add 3 more MV22 or MV72 on north wall (and adjust all 6 cameras to cover half court distance +/-). 2) And/or add a 360 MV22 in the center of the court (to help with dead zones). Concern about how to install and exposure to hits from basket/volley balls. 3) Add MV12 narrow or wide model (however many needed) and repurpose the 3 that I have now on the south wall. Thanks for any insight.

Are you able to do a few calls on the user's extension / hardware and see if you can replicate? Or be next to the user when it happens and be able to listen?

Design is a bit art, so there is always the subjective factor. You almost always have to appeal for the majority knowing that not everyone will like every design element.
