Vigor AP 962C

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone uses a Vigor AP 962C in their networks and if so how, has the experience been?

Would you recommend?

Many thanks in advance,

Ewan,

I have one and it works very well with good penetration of a 100 year old, very solid brick house. I mounted mine in the roof space under one of the main beams so it is looking downwards.
No serious complaints about it at all, I would just say make certain you put the latest firmware version in it as the earlier firmware was a little buggy (but nothing showstopping type bugs).

Thanks for the feedback Neil.

Much appreciated.

Ewan...

I bought two with the intention of replacing AP912C APs.

Doddle to setup, UI is good and responsive.
I found no coverage benefit.

The show-stopper for me is the physical design.

I don't mind that the physical footprint is larger although it might have been sensible to design this to retrofit to AP912 installations ...

But the Ethernet cable opening has no cover, so it's not possible to hide the cable. That for me is the show-stopper and so these will be returned.

While I've liked Draytek products for some years, unless there's a new AP with hidden cable management, I'll be heading to Ubiquity or similar for the next upgrade.
