901-R650-US00 R650 Dual-band Wrls 802.11ax Wireless Access Point

I absolutely love the Ruckus R650. It’s been a massive upgrade from the UniFi APs I was running before. The performance difference was obvious right away — stronger signal, better coverage, and way more consistent connections, especially in spots where UniFi struggled.Ruckus Unleashed is also really nice. Setup was straightforward, no controller or extra hardware to mess with, and once it’s up, it just works. Management is simple, stable, and feels very polished.Overall, Wi‑Fi feels rock solid now. Devices stay connected, speeds are consistent, and I don’t deal with random drops anymore. If you’re coming from UniFi and want something more reliable and powerful, the R650 with Unleashed is a huge step up. Zero regrets.

If you don't buy this product from an authorized reseller, Ruckus will not help you. Why do you need help? ANWER: Since I have three of this model AP already on my network, yet they are 1.5 years old, the firmware on the new one is different. Using the "Unleashed" dashboard to add a new device is easy if the firmware is the same, but if the newer version manufactured has an updated (or different firmware) then the one listed as "Master" on your network, it will not update. There is a process to do this by connecting it to your laptop, however, you also have to connect it up to a power source. Guess what? This product does not come with a power supply, and the Ruckus Tech support told me to go to an authorized reseller. They wouldn't even tell me the part number of the power supply.

So.... I didn't know anything about Ruckus. I just knew what I had wasn't good and what I replaced it with was worse. General chats on the interwebs tells me the Ruckus R650 unleashed is great so I got one.Turns out, this one doesn't have the Unleashed firmware pre installed. I'm sure people in the know uh.. know that but I didn't. Not a big deal though, if you are geek enough to understand why you want an AP over the junk a service provider gives you than you can do this. You can download the firmware from Ruckus and reflash it pretty easily but if you get a 9U1-xxxx rather than a 901-xxx you don't have to mess with that.So yeah, it's great! Best I've had so far But if you need Unleashed, it will be a bit easier if you get the correct one.

product is good and i have purchased almost more than a dozen but some are defective and if i return them how come i am charged $90 restocking fee?

This is the most reliable wifi system you will find. We run them unleashed

The only reason I did not put this as a five is because you needed to do a lot of firmware updates to get the devices to a current working state. Once you got the models current firmware updated then everything was easy to setup and get configured. The setup was easy but getting there out of the box without experience would be hard for a non-network admin that has worked with Ruckus devices in the past. For those needing to get this updated you will need to create an account with Ruckus to be able to download your models firmware. You have to make sure you get the correct firmware for the correct piece of equipment you have.

This was an absolute nightmare to try to get set up. I would not recommend it.

I bought 8 of these for my home and they are bulletproof and recommend them to anyone.
