Is a license/subscription required for this to function?
Amazon listings are explicitly saying no license included

"Note: This product is EOL but will be supported by Ruckus until 2029."

Doesn't require a license. I went from Unifi to Ruckus and don't plan to look back. I hacked an Engenius AP, but went back to Brocade/Ruckus

Unleashed means controller isn't required (leashed). So I recall reading ages ago. The one we have deployed does not require controller.

The range sucks.

Ruckus isn't made for range, only high density. Think 300 phones in a very small area, like an office setting.

This requires the unleashed firmware to be flashed to use it without a license, and in my experience you need to tweak the settings to get it working well.

Once you get it dialed in, it's rock solid and does well in a wide variety of situations consumer routers may have problems with (lots of neighbors, lots of/finicky devices, rtsp streams, etc)

IMO, the only reason the R320 is this low is because it doesn't support smart mesh.

Looks like this is back - https://computers.woot.com/offers...ss-point-2

Ruckus makes some excellent AP's. Used them all over the place in schools when I did K-12 IT and they were rock solid. If I didn't already have UniFi Wifi 6 AP's in place at home I'd be all over this.
