This is fantastic information.  I am not always watching these forums and I probably only come here to rant a bit, but this is excellent work and forwards the cause for all of us.  Thank you.  ... View more

2018.  It has gotten WORSE since this point... The branding available to MSPs allowed you to run a pathetic "Dark Mode" which merely greyed the menu bars and header.  Fortunately this progress has now been reversed to be NEON GREEN AND BLINDING WHITE which also ruins all the branding that was the point in the first place.     Its like they actively hate us.  ...

Definitely not. CM's are 6E and the rest are 6. As a rule of thumb, you should not mix APs unless they are similar in band and number or radios/channels... or not at all.  For example, you could safely blend MR36H into an existing MR36 installation without issue.  I have had problems with a mixed mesh of all MR36 and one MR46 that caused problems with roaming. This was likely due to a difference in the number of radios in the APs... you want to go for homogenous and contiguous.    ... View more

Let's all just agree: GB WAN is a BASELINE.  There is no excuse for not including a GB WAN in EVERY Meraki MX.  We are in 2022, the cheapest garbage from UBNT, Aerohive, Aruba, Rukus and all other prosumer crap all have GB WAN.    I understand Sticks n Muds old-timey logic... I know the "Stateful Firewall" is a thing that makes the $$... I also know that you can disable it if you want the bandwidth and there is no compelling reason to limit WAN uplink to anything less than GB.  We all need to be thinking in terms of future use as well. We could easily implement 2GB or 10GB uplink as well. No harm, no foul.    We lose out in the market without GB Uplink.  ... View more

Nothing should be produced with less than the GB NIC limit for WAN.  There is NO excuse, not since maybe 2010... Firewall throughput is great but people who do not need a firewall for a specific protocol or connection are not going to buy a router limited to 500Mbps WAN.uplink.  Nothing on the market cripples the WAN uplink to less than 1Gbps out of the box.  It makes us uncompetitive and is frankly suspicious and looks like an unethical marketing strategy to upsell.   Reality is that all traffic for CC and almost all other secure communications are already encrypted end-to-end and a Firewall for a consumer router or even small business or whatever don't need firewall. They need bandwidth.    ... View more

I think I said that but still, I would like a Dark Mode for everyone that works.  ... View more

There is absolutely a Dark Theme under the Branding Tab on the MSP accounts.      It's not that great for the old Dashboard either, but it's a thing. However...    It no longer works with the Fisher Price dashboard reboot, which BTW removes a LOT of functionality.      ... View more

Absolutely yes.  I pester my people about this constantly. Yeti mugs... I know there's more.  I want all of the stuff shown in the photos and some different Hats too. Please.  I will actually pay for it to give it to clients and wear it to meet with them.  Its astounding that this is not already a thing.     Thank you for bringing it up Blake.        ...

Meraki did nothing to further development of the MC. They pretty much dumped it in the lap of intelepeer and ignored it. It had potential but it should not have been a "complete" solution but a managed device like a switch or an AP. If it was merely managed through a dashboard with the backend available for configuration with any SIP provider it would have been a really innovative, competitive product but it was essentially ruined by the whole "Meraki will be your SIP provider" thing.   Simply put it was ill-conceived and never developed. The hardware was beautiful and it had amazing potential. Imagine something like the Grandstream IPBX software with those phones, managed from the Meraki dashboard.  So much potential. I really liked those phones.... when they worked.   Then they just dumped it and didn't let the already licensed customers just run out their licenses... What a nightmare for the MSPs... They got slaughtered.  ... View more
