- GekkePrutser 5y agoI don't think Cisco will do this. They already have a budget product line. Which is said to be pretty mediocre but if course it has to be not to cannibalise their enterprise offering.
- TheRealDunkirk 5y agoLinksys is strictly unknowledgeable home-use kit, whereas Ubiquiti could be called "prosumer," and Cisco doesn't have anything in the price range. When I built out a new, 1500-seat church, Ubiquity offered better-spec'd wifi AP's for less than half the price of comparable gear from Cisco. Would I do it again, knowing what a hassle their administration software is, and how often it breaks? I don't know.
- GekkePrutser 5y agoI don't mean Linksys. More like the 140AC: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/wireless/business-140ac-access-point/model.html https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/wireless/business-140a... The price here is almost the same as the Lite series of Unifi. They also have a Meraki go line but that seems to be yet another one (from an acquisition). But this is also in the same price range.
- TheRealDunkirk 5y agoI didn't know about this, but to be fair, they just released this product last year. Thanks for the heads up.
