[Cialug] Wireless access points with multi-ssid and vlan capabilities.

[Nathan C. Smith]

I've use a lot of engenius Wireless equipment and it has been very solid.  This one (and there may be others) seems to support multiple SSID.  I don't know about vlan mapping capability but I assume that would be a necessity for multi SSIDs.  Inexpensive.  I have Engenius equipment that has been in service (In my attic) for several years.  Does not burn out like the Linksys stuff has.

I know the Adtran Access point (netvanta 150)  (A, B & G - no  n)  can also do multiple SSID with VLAN mapping but may require a controller.  Adtran stuff is typically built like a tank but I do not have personal experience with these.

I'm needing a WAP with multi-SSID and vlan mapping support (.11n support nice, but not required) for a project I'm working on. Currently, the front runner is the HP V-M200.  The Cisco WAP4410N was in the race, until I read about its major stability problems in Cisco's support forums.

What I was wondering is if anyone might have any recommendations or heads-up on access points in this networking niche.

TIA.
