There are 6 separate APs, spread around the two buildings. I would not expect to see more than 20 or so users per unit (I have logged into them when busy). I am generally not onsite when it's busy which is difficult. 2 APs are on one interface and 4 on the other.
I am not fixated on the CP max users as such, I was just wondering what happens when several people try to connect at once, and the max is reached. I understand it's not the amount of users that can pass through, just the amount that view the login screen, but at times, looking at the logs, several people do login in quick succession.
iPhones recently do not seem to throw up the captive portal login when you connect the AP any longer. They used to. I wonder if this could be causing users problems, as they assume they are connected when they're not? Many these days don't even open browsers, it's straight to FB, email, twit etc.
Need to find some time to update to the latest version I guess, but will see how things go now squid is disabled.
Ubiquiti AP's are supposed to be very good in terms of number of users? I have used a few of them poreviously, and thinking of replacing with these. They also allow roaming between APs, although I think this is software based, and not too sure how it works. Need to have a closer look.
Thanks.
