@PhilipDAth Thank you, at the end of the day I will probably go with the MR36.

Thank you very much @rhbirkelund , I think I'll go with the MR33 or MR30H connected to the router of my ISP, and hope the router does not give issues. I won't go with the MR20 because it does not have bluetooth analytics. I'll also need the POE injector, I didn't know about it! Thank you all for your advices.

@PhilipDAth Yes, I'd like to keep it simple, I guess I'll need an MR then (by the way, thank you for the splashaccess webpage, I am taking a look). Just as recap, my best solution for now is to get an MR33. Is it the cheapest access point? I was thinking also to get the MX64, which should be the least expensive; but do I miss something if I don't get it and just try and use the router of the ISP? One of the limitations would be not being able to limit the amount of data for guests, limitation that I can overcome with services such as splashaccess. Any other limitation?

@PhilipDAth can I ask you what are the wifi functionalities I would lose with the builtin wifi in an MX? I care mostly about collecting data about customers (how long they are using wifi; are they new customers or returns; people counting; etc), be able to scale and have all this data from different locations and display it nicely in charts. Also I am interested in connecting one camera for security purposes.

@rhbirkelund Thank you for the heads up, I might actually use a different ISP than the one I use at home, so I'd better check again with the new provide

Thank you @Network-dad @PhilipDAth and @rhbirkelund I would actually like to replace the provider's router as well, so I believe a simple access point would not do it. I would like to keep things simple and cheap, but scalable. Currently I just need the opportunity to be able to scale to multiple locations and customize customers'wifi at the cheapest price possible. I would use a consumer solution like the google nest wifi I use at home, but it does not have the above two features. To keep things cheap and simple, I would have gone with the Cisco Meraki Go Security Gateway and the Cisco Meraki Go access point, but I've read in the FAQ that one account does not support multiple locations, just multiple networks in the same location (please correct me if I am wrong!). At this point I am thinking about the Unifi Dream Machine, but I wonder if there are valid alternatives from Cisco, and how much it would turn out to be including the yearly subscription.

Hello everybody, nice meeting you! This is my first post and I write to have a little support. I will soon open a small Wine Dining Bar. Unfortunately I don't have much IT knowledge. I just need a simple solution that allows me to create wifi for customers (no more than 10-20 people connected at the same time), but limit their data usage and bandwidth. I would have picked Google Nest wifi like I have at home, but it does not allow to limit data usage for guest wifi. At this point I am looking at professional solutions. Since I am going professional and invest a little more money, I would expect my network to support multiple locations to future proof my solution in case I later open new venues for my business. I would go for Cisco Meraki Go for its promoted simplicity, but I've read in the FAQ it does not support multiple locations as of now (just multiple networks and only one Security Appliance). Can you please suggest, trying to keep it simple, what I would need (considering I will replace the poor quality router the internet provider will give me)?
