Review on πŸ“‘ FORTINET FAP-221E-A FortiAP-221E Indoor Wireless Wave 2 AP - 2x2 MU-MIMO, Dual Radio, 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, 4 Internal Antennas, RJ45 Port by Seth Torres

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works fine, not great.

So I use two of them on 2000 sqm. Feet from home and they still report that 25% of my clients are weak, 50% are fine and 25% are good. Now comes the crazy. They report receiving "interfering" access points from many miles away. So I get 142 Rouge APs (with houses far apart), but the signal for my CLIENTS IN my house gets a weaker signal. Understand yourself. Update: Since Wi-Fi is a two-way wireless signal, it turns out it helps reduce the performance of this hotspot. If your phone is only capable of transmitting at low power, a high-power hotspot won't help.
