it's ok to request them for development & testing, but for deployments... hmmm

Depending on kernel & firmware versions, they are reliable or
unreliable. It's hit and miss. And RF usage is still high I think, so
I'm not sure we can cope with 40 users in a stable, usable shape.

For anything resembling field usage, get a cheap AP instead and live longer.
