Hmm, so they have a Cisco 3502i putting out over 190mbps with 2x2 MIMO. Nice. But the Meraki 3x3 is barely doing 25% more, not so nice. I've become rather adverse to "enterprise" WAPs lately though, mainly because we're at the mercy of whatever Cisco decide to provide in terms of firmware and support, whereas with my consumer gear if I don't like the firmware I can change it or even re-write it myself.

In any case given my mid-range consumer gear on stock settings can push over 80mbps through three walls, I contend 100mbps+ on wireless is pretty easy.
