"The feature that I really liked is the mesh feature. Currently, we are in quarantine, and the request of home users is that they need to cover the whole house or the whole indoor house. Mesh solution works really nice in Cambium environment. Being able to set up access points in advance is a good feature. It lets you set up the whole environment in your lab or any other place before deploying the access points."
"It is easy to deploy, and it is not that complicated. There are a lot of systems that are very complicated, and they require a special kind of training.

"The modulation could be optimized for better performance, and the configuration should be made adaptive to ensure dynamic adjustments as needed."
"The range of the product is disappointing so far."

"The Wifi coverage and throughput performance of Cambium could improve."

"The only thing I would like to see is better high availability if you're using the embedded wireless controller."
"The price of Cisco Wireless WAN could improve, it is expensive."
