Time2Jet Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Anyone interested in Ruckus gear, message me. There is a very nice sale on their APs and Switches. Fantastic opportunity to finally crossover to enterprise grade APs at prices similar to mainstream home APs. I’m a huge fan of Ruckus and its Unleashed platform. Very simple to setup and manage. The sale runs through the end of the year. Message me if you are interested. TIA Gary Leeds UK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time2Jet Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 They do not. I assume the sale is to try to clear out some wifi6 gear… even though it hasn’t been around terribly long. I personally have a blend of Rx10’s and Rx50’s in my project. They are blazing fast and very stable. Are the new iPhone 15’s wifi7?

Topspin14m Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 New iPhones are WiFi 6e. Has ruckus even released WiFi 7 APs?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew luecke Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 It's a bit early for proper brands like Ruckus to have Wifi7 still. The big advantage of Wifi 7 will realistically be guaranteed low latency (which may also open up new classes of devices), or possibly full-quality streaming of high res footage over wifi without quality loss (but for that kind of bandwidth, you'll need Fibre+SFP or 10gbps Link Aggregation). So, many installs will likely only benefit from the latency improvements for now (but really depends on the usecase. It won't help if your usecase is netflix) If you're building and want WiFi 7, make sure you install conduit to your AP at a minimum, but you probably want fiber and ethernet running to your AP's to be able to use them at full capacity Time2Jet and GregCAMS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERDrPC Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Yeah...I have fibre and cat7a. Currently using 3x r710s. Gonna pick up a new mikrotik 100G/25G router and switches. Next AP upgrade will be Ruckus with wifi7. Full overkill mode... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had started to spec out an upgrade of my service from ISP to 2.5Gbps and the associated router, switches and Ruckus WIFI 6 AP's. All of my entertainment source and end devices are wired with only having laptops and phones wireless. From you opining, worth waiting for Wifi 7 whenever Ruckus releases those products or safe to proceed with what's existing? I'm on Wifi 5 now and mostly satisfied with the wireless here although did get a spot review done and found recommended to add an outdoor AP and one more indoor AP. Using Araknis for the AP's but going to Ruckus going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think only if you have a lot of band interference, Wifi 7 wouldnt give your use case a lot of benefit for the cost.

Andrew luecke Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Honestly, I agree there still aren't any real-world applications for home users released yet for Wifi 7. But, I wouldn't be surprised if we start to see technologies like better wireless MOIP baluns a few months after the standard is finalised (and can think of a few that used their own rf standard). Wifi 7 has a worst case latency of only 10ms (best case 1ms, which is less than 1 frame), and 30gb performance. But, that will only mainly benefit specialized applications, or hardware designed for it (maybe also gaming if you're relying on wifi). I'm still using Wifi 5 too (which is enough for me at the moment), but will upgrade to 7 when proper AP's get released Time2Jet and GregCAMS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
