Coming back round on the U6-LR AP... it's not for me.
It's a super nice piece of kit, but in my case with the size of my flat (relatively small) and the problem I'm trying to solve (video doorbell with poor signal)... a boosted AP isn't the solution... in fact it may make things worse in my case.
The doorbell that I have low signal on, that only has 15dBm transmit power. If I boost the AP I can't solve that low signal as the client side isn't capable of going higher. But if I did boost the AP anyway (because long-range is nice) then the small size of my flat means it will just overlap my other AP too much and cause more congestion and the hand-offs get moved.
So I'm going to pass.
Nice bit of kit upon investigation, but not a solution for the problem I have.
Would really suit someone with a larger space.
