Thanks!


What I really like about going this route: when a new wireless standard happens to come out, I don't need to replace my router, re-do all my firewall rules, or lose internet connectivity on all my devices -- wired or wireless -- for a couple hours, or spend time working out the bugs from a new device.


I can replace one access point at a time -- my wireless devices will roam to the other AP -- adopt the new AP into the controller, and once it's provisioned I just replace the other AP the same way. Virtually zero downtime. Buying a new consumer wireless router was always slightly stressful because I knew I was going to have to make sure all my custom configuration was properly ported over to the new device.
