AirRouter

Anybody else deploying(ed) AirRouters? We did a test run of 50+ - at least half of them were DOA, or died/malfunctioned within a couple of weeks. Other half worked flawlessly from day one, and are still running strong several months later. Seems to be batch dependent - all were running latest firmware - misc problems ranging from PPPoE *not* dialing, to randomly disconnecting, to flat out popping -- I'm just curious if we've had bad luck or...? Only bit we haven't had issues with yet is the wireless aspect.

We have a few dozen of them also and not one has had a single problem. We only use them as a standard home router, but as far as we are aware, they've been running fine since we set them up.

Are you on the UBNT forum? you can ask there and UBNT might want to get some of them back to look at.

I have used about 20.
One was dead on arrival. Still have to send it back to the supplier.

Others appear to run real well.

I switched to them from linksys (which tend to factory reset too often) and haven't had an issue with any of them (about 20-30 deployed.) Using PPPoE on all of them.

Holy crap!???

I've got well over a hundred of these deployed since the first day I could get my hands on them. ZERO failures except for one that some bonehead plugged the wrong voltage into.

What I DO notice with them is you need 5.3 or higher firmware on them otherwise their wireless side does very odd things. It will drop computers randomly (ESPECIALLY MACS!)

But once you fix the firmware they are solid as a brick.

I love them! They are the only routers so far that I've seen that hold up like a rock and we never have problems with. Wow I'm surprised people have problems with these. I couldn't believe how stable they are.
