Old Ruckus APs

Hello everyone,

I want to help my friend to rebuild fairly large (in the sense of surface) hotspot network in hotel. Everything is set (captive portal, radius) aside of APs.

I can buy, fairly cheap, old Ruckus hardware (Zoneflex 7363,7962,7942,7352 etc) and here is the question:

will they work as simple dumb APs, just for spreading wifi all over?All i need is wifi ap with poe power. I have heard they have very good redios with decent antenas and are pretty solid in general.

i know there are a lot of old hardware, but usually they need some sort of controller (MERU,TRAPEZE etc).

Best regards
