hi, welcome!
b) Anyone got libremesh running on the UAP-AC-M or Mesh Pro units?
What is most interesting is that they are dual radio, passive poe
powered, and outdoor ready. The M has 1 ethernet, the Mesh Pro has
dual with PoE passthrough. I'm not seeing it listed in the image or
the builder, hoping someone has done the basics here.
no... that is why the librerouter is important!
c) Anyone have some examples of an in-production mesh with 2.4 + 5Ghz radios?
we use TP-link wdr-3500/3600/4300
my design concept is that libremesh would be the
backbone network
using both radios for mesh.
Good idea
It would offer outdoor hotspot style WiFi
off the 2.4Ghz, and the wired interface would run down into the
customer's hom
and be their connection through a PoE injector.
I'm hoping that even over 3-4 mesh hops I could deliver a reliable
5Mbps service with the UAP-AC-M.
those devices are ath10k, meaning don't work correctly with AP+mesh
If a customer wanted to upgrade to a faster plan I
would swap the
UAP-AC-M with a UAP-AC-Mesh Pro and add a PtP from a tower (I'm a
wISP) plugged into the Mesh Pro's second ethernet port and I would
bridge that to a VLAN on the PtP radio to essentially trunk the mesh
back to the tower.
no idea about customers... libremesh not thought for a customer network
