I often use MA-ANT-3-E6 antennes to cover ground areas if the ceiling is above 8m (in designs). Below that I'd advise you to use a downtilt omni antenna. Main advantage of the 3-E is that you get a smaller coverage cell than with an omni so if roaming is required this will give you a more predictable wireless environment.   This is a MR42E with a 3-E antennes at approx 11m in a warehouse. 3-F antennes are used for getting the signal between the racks (also mounted at 11m) and standard APs at the docks (mounted at 3m).         ...

@Drew325 If you cannot fix it with duct tape... you are not using enough duct tape.  😀   I've seen customers also place stick-on labels that state they are cloud-managed secure-boot phone-home devices, useless if stolen, and remain under the owner's control when re-connected even if stolen.  Just a mild deterrent, won't stop forced removal or vandalism.  I've also seen customers use a security box like @antonis_sp mentioned, similar to a lockable wall-mount thermostat guard box.  ...

Also if you're only using one antenna make sure you are not running dual band on these AP's. And to avoid moisture problems get waterproof metal caps to cover your open N-type ports. ... View more

When I configure APs, I make sure the switch port the AP is connected to is configured for access mode, on a VLAN that has DHCP, and has access to the internet.  I usually use a vlan configured for user desktop PCs.   ... View more

This problem can only be resolved by Meraki support. There is no customer facing resolution for this problem yet. I had this same issue today and Meraki explained to me that the MX has a missing parameter and only Meraki has a back-end fix at this time. Call support and it will take 5 mins to resolve ...

Hey All! Thanks for all of the feedback. We definitely hear you about SSO -- it's something that is top of mind for us, and we are actively investigating how best to implement to provide the most seamless experience. ... View more

I’ve seen this discussed on Reddit as well, the theory being they are faulty. It seems like tapping/pushing/prying on the mount can make the whine appear or go away, and when it whines it’s in repeater mode. ... View more

That would be an option. But we are talking about a current deployment.   Another workaround I found was using tags on APs along with scheduled availability on the SSID, but still.. not as convenient as a "Disable AP" option.   Time for the wish button I guess. ... View more

@pjc26.x will continue to get security and functional fixes, just not new major features.  Hence the support up to 26.99 when we are only on 26.8.1 at the moment.  I think that if you configure a network that has a mix of devices with 27.x then the newer devices will get 27.x and the older ones will get the latest 26.x.  Obviously you cannot use new functional features that rely on 27.x.   We have been doing a bit of rationalising and have been replacing the 802.11ac Wave 1 APs at sites with only a few with Wave 2 APs from sites where most are Wave 1, thereby allowing us to use the new features in the now all Wave 2 sites if required. ...
