    Hello,

    I was wondering what AP would work best to support 130-150 clients in a classroom setting?

     

    I have a ap-105 currently and i max it out around 95 clients.

     

    Any ideas? 

     

    Thanks in advance!

    AP-225, assuming a more or less even split of clients across both radios. 

     

    What do you see with your AP105s, when you say it maxes out? Will client #96 not get on, or is it just performance-related? Also, what split of clients between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz are you seeing per AP?

    I am receiving a message of ( This AP has reached maximum capacity and cannot accommodate accommodate any more clients)

    so the 96th client will not be able to get onto the AP .

     

    On That AP I see that about 2/3 of our clients are on 5ghz.

     

    I have 2 other 105's close by but the clients wont jump to the other 105's.

    And what is your max associations set to per SSID and/or in the AP system profiles? You might be able to raise that up a bit to get more on there (you should be able to technically, though whether performance will be great is a whole nother matter heh).
