(SXT Lite )RBSXT2nDr2 is ar9344@600mhz/64m and ROS L3

Even the sxt lite being a more powerfull platform(packet handling, more connections, more memory), it cannot perform as a hotspot. Doesn’t make sense to me!?

Is there a better option for a hotspot than these two?

Conclusion is that cpe is better than AP.
You can use RB951 in an plastic box (like I do) or use Groove 52Ahpn.

I have some spare rb750’s, going to use them to do the leasing work.

Anyway, it is very confusing to have “Lite” hardware that is more powerfull than the G hardware. (Apart from tx-power, that is not necessary in hotspot scenarios).
