Instant On Access Point AP22

I have bought and fitted a large number of these. They are easy to install and configure and have proven reliable over the years I have been using them. The signal strength and speed available through the devices is brilliant as is the network control. Definitely recommend.

Great WiFi 6 AP. I have two now formed a meshed network. It’s easy to setup, easy to maintain. Initial setup was smooth with a Bluetooth mobile phone. No subscription required. Can do configuration anytime anywhere with mobile app or web portal (after initial setup).

Used two AP22s to replace two tp-link access points. As a result my wifi is faster and has better range and there have been no dropouts. Dropped one star because the accompanying app is clunky and confusing. So I set my network up using the HPE web site and installation was straightforward. Overall I am very pleased. Shame about the app.

I swapped out Google Nest for Aruba as the Google Nest Wi-Fi product only allowed 2 SSIDs and I needed more capability. Aruba InstantOn - I deployed 4 points in total so far, coverage itself is good, bandwidth and stability also seems good, though I did see 1 issue where a point dropped offline for no apparent reason, but stable since. There are a number of issues I’ve seen however, more to do with the way in which the devices appear to work, and most of which would probably be resolved by having more granular controls, but the software front end is designed for simplicity, so there is no way to troubleshoot or advanced functionality. I have approximately 60 smart devices, and like most want to segment them off and have it such that they cannot communicate with the primary LAN, this was easily possible on the previous Google system. Not so with Aruba - the devices cannot correctly pass the required traffic when NAT is used, bridge only works, but then they are on the same range as primary which isn’t the desired solution. Application filtering, a block page is not displayed when attempting to access a blocked site catalogue, it simply won’t load. This is a little confusing as it then becomes unclear if there is an issue, or if the site is categorised correctly. Issues with application filtering don’t stop there. When looking at the logs it shows that devices that are connected to 1 network are accessing the internet via other networks even though they don’t have the passwords to connect and have never connected to the other network. This blurs the view of what types of traffic is accessed on which network and by which devices. Logs are only kept (user front end) for 24 hours which is far too short also, so any visibility is lost after 24 hours. Some functions work just fine, like bandwidth management, but after selling HPE and Aruba solutions to enterprises for more than 15 years I would have expected better from Aruba. I think the points hardware seems good, but is let down by shoddy software. Support is offered for 2 years post purchase, but this hasn’t been great either. In 2 weeks of issues I’ve had nothing other than a little lip service and a couple of screen shares of little value. Chances of this being resolved I think are slim, which will probably result in the return of the devices and a swap out for a Meraki Go solution.

Branding says "instantOn" and setup - configuration was super-easy (especially compared to other products I have used recently) 🤨🤨 However after sales support is not so good. Tried to contact; no response !!!!

Haven't seen much performance improvement over AC / existing AP11s in my use case, so returned.

Very easy to install, good range. Config via web site or app. A think to know : max ssid supported : 8 for the whole site.

Funziona bene

Un ap muy bueno calidad precio.... Muchísimas opciones de configuración...bien alcance, bien diseño...etc.

Great devices, easy to setup, the app is excellent, makes a simple network throughout the house in just a few minutes (once Instal is done). Highly recommended.

Funciona perfectamente
