So Long, Thanks For All The Help

As you both said (@tgl & @Tech9 ), the U7's do look like there are a lot of issues which seems to be the cheap 2.4 iot devices and their chipsets. Regardless though, the same cheap devices work fine on the older U devices so something seems amiss with the U7 line.

Everyone has their opinion.
For me, I have a number of cheap IoT devices. All came up and have stayed up with zero changes to the default WiFi settings.
My phones roam quickly and properly.
I have no idea what the commenters are on about as I don't base purchases on other's 'informed' opinions. I do look to see if something is garbage, but past that, eh?

BTW- One of my U7 Wall units is in a small cabinet in a family room along with the PoE adapter. I don't know where to look for temps yet, but by feel and by opening the door to the cabinet, nothing unusual.

Impressive amount of data in their dashboard. Temps I've seen on Reddit were obtained with digital thermometer pointed at the AP and readout showing in pic. Just an observation I made from reddit threads regarding the U7's. People didn't like the internal fans either, but quite a few said they had never heard them run hahaha.

MikroTik is more popular in Europe.

For now, but they are definitely making inroads. There are multiple dealers in the GTA. I believe one of my friends is currently in Latvia either leading or upgrading his training with them, and he already holds Cisco certs. The pricing is certainly very competitive. There's no wifi7 stuff yet, or even 6e iirc, but if you want 2.5G and faster PoE switching with SFP, it's probably a very good place to start.
