Last week I set up cable internet for a small non-profit I'm associated with. We've got like $0.00 budget so I've hobbled together a small network with discarded hardware and some swear words.
When Spectrum came to to hook up the new Cable connection they also installed a second cable modem and Ruckus R500 AP for their "Free Cable WiFi!!1!" crap they do. I immediately disconnected this because it's weird, but I was thinking last night that I don't currently have is a good AP. Only a 1st gen Unifi 2.4 GHz model. So last night I was wondering if I could use this Ruckus?
I managed to factory reset it and started poking around a bit, but had to leave before I could really get a good look. Does anyone know whether it's possible to set this thing up as our own AP? Will it need a controller? I see mixed messages in the literature.
I suppose it's possible TW/Spectrum has a custom firmware on the thing.
