Great, thanks for the information.

I have different, well let´s call them "reasons":
  • Why "wave 2" ASICs and not "wave 1" chipsets? They are newer, also have more CPU power for handling more concurrent clients?...
  • We´ll have a new building (around 11/2015), so I´m looking for an appropriate solution. So I can wait for the new wave 2 access points.
  • Also, "wave 2" access points (39xx series?) will probably have longer support by extremenetworks.
  • When students come with their latest Y/X/T/I phone 6/7/8, we´ll have our first wave 2 clients and we will still have 802.11a/g activated for the rest of our people, I know what you want to say 

Hi Willian,
Which are the Extreme Network AP models Wave 2?
Are the Wave 2 AP Extreme Networks compatibility with Client Wave 1? How much compatibility ... (100%, 90%)?
Which manufacture o brand Client Wave 2 are compatibility with the Wave 2 AP Extreme Networks function or you tested with it?
Thanks,
Erick Lobo
