Wireless has come a long way but still not as good as wired. The trade offs may not be worthwhile to you as it’s a town house so you’ll most likely end up cutting drywall to get a pathway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When did "dealers" become "pros"

Araknis AC700 Access Point SLOW
SouthernSmarthome replied to samsmoothjazz's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Araknis is shit product, sold by dealers because it has fat margin, is stupid easy to setup and if needed has ok tech support. I’ve used and tested the AP’s, switch’s and routers. The AP’s are complete garbage as are the routers. The layer two switch’s are ok at best and the layer three have had and still might issues with stripping out vlans - snap tech support all the way to the top witnessed this and had no solution. Basically it’s for people that don’t really know networking but still want to make big money on the product side of things. OvrC is a great tool that comes along for the ride and can be very helpful. I have removed araknis at multiple sites to fix multiple issues including the speed thru the AP’s and watching the router’s weak processors slow a network to a crawl. If you want great WiFi get Ruckus. I’m sure that the araknis lovers will flame me, but i have super solid networks that outperform anything araknis routers and AP’s can offer, some even have araknis layer 2 switch’s.

Ok I’ll make this easy. If you want composer pro and your not a dealer then I’m happy to help you. For $10,000.00 a month paid in yearly lump sum payments and with no tech support, I’ll hook you up. If you need tech support (most likely) then that will be an additional 5k a month for email support only. For those of you that will need phone and remote support that will be another 10k a month Tech support is only sold in 5year blocks. I’ll be waiting for your phone calls. Cash and cashier checks only. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

c4 wall10 ribbon preventing flush mount
SouthernSmarthome replied to stamatopo's topic in General Control4 Discussion
That’s because it’s not really supposed to be flush. It’s also why the pads are included for the back of the TS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Pakedge Network Equipment
SouthernSmarthome replied to RoadRacer22's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Oh yeah I’ve tried araknis (as well as pakedge and Luxul) AP’s and router and for what they cost vs performance it’s a joke. Araknis, packedge and Luxul as far as I’m concerned are products for people that need IT but don’t understand IT. Same goes for meraki. Cisco switch’s have been solid as have edge switch’s.

While I’m not a huge araknis fan i agree that a single 48 port switch is a better way to go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Pakedge Network Equipment
SouthernSmarthome replied to RoadRacer22's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Love mikrotik, it is the only router I’ll use. Just not for the novice. From a purely functional standpoint though it’s damn hard to beat them as they can do more than arakins, pakedge & Luxul put together. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Buy ruckus on amazon. They blow away pakedge. Switches are ok but ubiquity or Cisco are better again check amazon Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
