Meraki was the coolest wireless mesh product I had seen, and I was promoting meraki till they changed their business models. Still meraki is the best product in the market but I dont use it anymore.
Ever since Meraki changed their prices and business models, I was looking for an alternative. There were many similar products, but the web dashboard and the zero configuration router were still not there.
Today I have found a product, that is open source and free and that matches merakis features. Its the Open-Mesh. They provide free centralized network management & reporting console for RO.B.IN and Meraki network. The stuff is very much similar to Merakis online dashboard.
The Open-Mesh supports Fon 2200 routers flashed with a custom firmware. The router costs only 40$. Now thats cheaper than Meraki which costs 49$ a piece. This is the best Ive seen so far and Ill be soon getting a few FON routers and restarting the mesh project I had started and then paused due to merakis change of business plans.
