Brett, I noticed that overall latency in our network jumped from <10mS
stable to in the 20-30mS average, some in the 100s mS unstable range as we
added KN-50s to the mix it seems. I'm not sure what happened, as we were
adding lots of customers at the time, the vast majority of them KN-50s. But
never did we go over about 30 customers per AP radio, which should have done
nothing bad to latency. I substituted a KN-200 for a AP-1000 at the AP to
see if that improved things (it didn't) It's only an impression, that I
can't back up with hard data, but I suspect that the addition of KN-50's did
not improve system latency/jitter. Something wasn't/isn't quite right.
