How can we compare the range or performance of 1 specific HP access Point vs 1 specific Aruba Access point.

At m y work we are planning on migrating from an old HP System that is using:
- HP E-MSM466
- HP MMO 6 Antenna J9659A


To a brand new wireless infrastructure that will be using Aruba Instant AP-325
http://www.securewirelessworks.com/Aruba-IAP-325.asp

My question is: How can we judge the range that the new wireless AP will spread to vs the older model?  

From what I have researched it is stated that the ranges differ by country.  That makes sense because I think that the power provided by the AP will help determine the range.  Different countries have different power standards.  But, if that is the case then theoretically speaking there should not be any difference between the range with the older AP's and the new AP's.  How can we tell?

Aruba is suggesting to add more APs than what we currently have in place(with the older system); but we want to compare the 2 and research what the expected.  Right now we are hoping to do a 1 for 1 replacement regarding wireless access points.

After reading all reviews for above device at Amazon, I'm uncertain if it could meet my requirement below:

I have a home Set-Top box (from Telco) that connects to my broadband router via a wired (ie RJ45) LAN cable to stream movies (such as Netflix etc). How can I use this device so that family members can view the movies from their laptops in bedrooms?   This Set-Top box has an RJ45 LAN port, an output HDMI port that goes to TV & a USB port (which I'm not sure what's the USB port is for).

Currently from the bedrooms (can be 5m to 30m away from the broadband router which has wired RJ45 ports as well as Wifi), we can't view the movies/streams via the broadband router & one bedroom barely can connect to the broadband Wifi

hello experts
i have Cisco 1832 wireless AP which have ME enabled, current version is 8.5.131, i am facing a headache issue, which mobile phone has not problem with it, but for laptop(win7 or win10), it is not stable, after connected for a while, usually 10 mins later it disconnected itself then 1 or 2 mins later it connected again, then circular happened again and again, i am not sure how to fix it, attach is a debug file which only focus on windows laptop MAC address, lots info in it i can't understand, so need your help identify the root cause.
let me know if you need more information.
thank youdebugME.txt

hello experts
i have 3 SSID configured on an autonomous Cisco AP, all authenticate against ACS server, so three policy for each SSID, i did configured DNIS as *WIRELESS_SSID in "End Station Filter" but looks like it only works for WLC not autonomous AP, and seem Cisco autonomous AP not sending SSID info to ACS while the processing of authentication, my question is how to make Cisco autonomous AP to do this, i did try the following:
radius-server attribute 32 include-in-access-req format %h
radius-server attribute 30 original-called-number
radius-server vsa send authentication
but it doesn't help, please give me your suggestion.
thanks

At my gym they have Wifi.

When I go on the treadmill, I watch music videos on my iPhone 6 Plus and listen with my Jaybird Run bluetooth earbuds as I run

Is that not a good idea?

What I mean is, if someone gets on the treadmill next to me can they use their phone to hack into my phone through the wifi?
I'm kind of paranoid of people with all the crime these days.  
So when some dude gets on the treadmill right next to me even though there is a bunch of treadmills everywhere not being used but they still get on the one next to me that seems weird to me. Am I just too paranoid?
What do the tech experts do when they go to the gym?  Do you guys use the wifi or phone's internet connection?

Should I just turn off the Wifi on my phone and just use my att phone's internet. I have the unlimited data plan anyways.

I have a kyocera Ecosys FS-C2126MFP+  is there any way to make it wifi enabled ( thru print server etc)

Hello and Good Evening Everyone,

          I am getting ready to purchase an Amazon Echo (2nd generation) and wish to know the pros and cons of it.  The one which will be ordered is at https://www.amazon.ca/Echo-2nd-Generation-Charcoal-Fabric/dp/B0749ZSPN7.  That said, could someone share with me your thoughts and experiences with it?  It will be most helpful to me as I enthusiastically await to make this purchase.

          Thank you

          George

I'm hoping someone on e-e really and truly knows how to use the Ubiquiti AirLink software.  I am trying, but there are so many things I don't understand about what I am looking at, and I can't find at any support for it at Ubiquiti.  For example, it shows the measurements in "m".  I assume this is meters.  Can it be changed to feet or miles?  And when I put in the addresses, it does not accept them unless it pops up on the screen, but those are not exactly the same as what UPS or the USPS shows, so I'm not sure it is really picking up the correct addresses.  And with the one I'm trying to do, it is showing a Link Distance of 291.27 m, but I know in reality it is about 3.5 miles.  

Maybe if someone here is very familiar with this software, I can send you my two addresses and you can help me understand what I am seeing.  Any thoughts or suggestions?  TIA

wirelessly display random laptop's desktop onto the TV.

Looking for a way to have anyone bring their laptop in to the conference room, and without downloading software, project their screen over to the TV.

I know there are widi options out there that do this, but we get all sorts of laptops (some windows 7 and without widi, some with software installation restrictions, etc, some without regular hdmi ports, etc).        I'm looking for a device that can wirelessly connect to said device, which then has a connection to the tv and allows us to project onto the TV.

key feature:    laptop must connect wirelessly and not require a software download.

Thanks for the help.

While connecting a Cisco access point to a local controller I started noticing the following error:



"unable to create temp dir flash:/update"
Download image failure, notify controller !!! From 8.2.151.0 to 8.3.140.0 Failure code:7

Has anyone seen this:

Hi Experts, I want to buy a wireless access point to connect to my router, such that I can use wifi at home.
I have an internet cable coming out of a hole on a wall, and I feel that it will be easy for me to install an ceiling access point to the wall, such that I can also cover the hole. The ceiling access point I am looking at is like:

https://www.amazon.ca/KuWFi-Wireless-Access-Ceiling-System/dp/B06XTKJWRM/ref=sr_1_4?s=pc&rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1532759982&sr=1-4&keywords=POE+access+point&refinements=p_85%3A5690392011
 
However, I realize that if I do this, the orientation of the access point device will change from horizontal to vertical, and the antenna inside (if there is any) will also be different from the normal orientation. My questions: will this influence the coverage of the signal?


Thank you!
