Hi guys,   I've got 4x APs that I'd ideally like to use for surveys and client demos - I've arranged for a couple of demos this week but the licences that have been ordered potentially won't land for another 7 days.   Is there any way that the hardware can be demo'd/trialled without having to wait for the purchased licences to come through?   Also would be good to have access to say, 14 day trial licences without having to order and tie them to a specific end user as you do with any licences that you buy currently. I know this problem will go away when the licensing model changes, and I should have thought about leadtime in advance, but just asking the question in case there is a way to achieve this.   Cheers Russ ...

Hi guys,   I have a recent installation comprising of 6 APs, all hardwired via a POE switch, distributed around a client property in order to give the best coverage. 4 wireless network are configured, each with different limitations depending on user access.   I've had a few mentions now about certain devices having sketchy connectivity so visited today to perform a few tests.   One of the trouble devices is a Samsung J3 phone, I performed a couple of tests on this device, comparing the results to my phone (iPhone 7).   I found that:   1. Though both devices were right next to each other, within approx. 2m range of AP1, the Samsung phone preferred to connect to an AP that was much further away. It also seemed to display an inconsistent signal strength reading for each of the networks being broadcast from all APs. 2. When both devices were connected to the closest AP, and showing excellent signal strength, running a speed test on the iPhone reported a 5Mbps connection up/down (maximum allowed on this particular network). The Samsung however reported a 0.13/0.33 connection up/down and even timed out on occasion - the speed issue is also confirmed by a very poor browsing experience on this device.These statistics were repeated on each wireless network, including networks that did not have and bandwidth restrictions, again wielding the same poor results for the Samsung device each time.   Questions that I have on this are, could this be a result of older wireless hardware on the Samsung phone? - I've read that the J3 does not have support for 5GHz but surely as the Go APs are broadcasting on both frequencies that there shouldn't be an issue with throughput.   If this is a compatibility issue, is there a feature available to enable legacy connection types like there is on the enterprise Meraki hardware?   Although I only tested with one trouble device, I have been told that the issue is more widespread and on initial questioning only appears to be affecting Android based hardware.   Has anyone else experienced similar, or have any idea what steps to try in order to fix?   Cheers Russ ...
