Upgrade from AP230?

Upgrade from AP230?

We currently have 2 classrooms in our schools with AP230s in each. There are complaints that wireless access is slow and typically we have 40 for devices connected to each. Would an upgrade of the APs help and if so which model is recommended?

Newer models like the AP250 or AP650 can hold more concurrent connections at a time, simply because they have more radios per device. However, 40 clients per AP should be fine for the AP230's, you might be better off checking the RF environment first. If you want to send tech data from an AP230 to me directly at communityhelp@aerohive.com, I can take a look and let you know what we're seeing.
