As 5Ghz becomes utilized as 2.4Ghz MESH solutions like the ones above will start to degrade in performance. History repeating it self just like 2.4Ghz were great in the 80´s. Eero calls it business grade wifi I fail to see the resemblance.

We have a lot of experience with Ruckus Wireless and we’re sure it will do the job. However price will be a big issue. The Xclaim product from Ruckus Wireless is a good alternative. It gives a very good performance for in home Wifi. But whatever product will be used, measuring is the key answer. There are a lot of devices and obstacles in a house or building wich can cause even so many interference driving you mad when deploying a wireless network.

Ruckus has positioned a brand called Xclaim for this. Lots of enterprise features at consumer pricing (and not a startup but at full throttle)

Classic consumer positioning opportunity. Ruckus positioned as too ‘enterpricey'(think Nokia in mobile). Eero and Luma are like the iphones of in Home networking – desirable, designed for consumer, achievable price point.

Ruckus was originally designed by Selina with home deployment in mind. The idea was to improve performance in home for video and audio utilizing smart antenna arrays. They had a cpe device called metroflex that bridged wifi in from outdoor municipal mesh deployments and was a pretty good device for doing that. I still own one.

Hi Chris – I’m sure it has. But this is for homes rather than enterprise 🙂
