Fernando thank you for getting back to me (so quickly too). To answer your question about the ICX not appearing in the admin app: When I log into the network (or "unleash" it as the app says once you login as the admin) there is no switch in the groups of manageable connections. I can see the 20+ clients, I can see the 2 AP's & there is 1 wireless network however when I swipe to the "switches" group there is nothing there. Per your instructional video in the 1st reply there should be a switch listed. I assume you understand what I mean when I say there's no functional internet over the network so I won't explain that.
I think the most important & glaring point is the picture diagram you provided in your recent reply needing a router makes both the ICX & both AP's entirely redundant. It is 2023 & pretty much any router you buy is going to have wifi emitters built-in, not saying non-wifi routers aren't available but you know as well as I do that there is no reason to buy a router without wifi as the cost is almost exactly the same &... I'm a homeowner, which means I own a home not a Microsoft or Intel factory. Furthermore I own a Lennar home which means I don't live in a 6,000sqft mansion. Your a tech guy, you know where this is going: Why would anybody buy a router & not get one with wifi & if you have a wifi router in a 1,700sqft house why would you be running a Ruckus Wifi system on top of it when your router is going to service the entire house already?.... Per my snarky comments in my last reply, I'm not a MCSE certified network technician but I am educated enough to know that the system your presenting is not only overkill for a single family home but it's also completely redundant after the wifi emitter. In fact I'd say that the only mechanical difference with the wifi router alone vs a wifi router & a Ruckus wifi system would be all the unnecessary RF signal bouncing around my house. I feel like you're smart & educated enough to know there would be no reason a residential home would need a Ruckus wifi system if they've already got a 5g wireless router pushing wifi through the home.
I'm a finance analyst not an IT professional but I am a professional critical thinker & very mechanically savvy... what you're suggesting is like putting another engine in a car trunk that has a perfectly functional engine under the hood. Having 2 competing wifi networks in my home (the router & the Ruckus system) is an obvious conflict & since you didn't mention killing the wifi on the router I have to assume you know these instructions are accurate but not actually efficient.
I do however appreciate you talking to me in a way that a normal person can understand. Unfortunately, now that I know what you're talking about it seems silly to me that I'd follow these instructions unless I was installing a Ruckus Unleased system in the Intel factory that is 2 miles from my house. These Ruckus systems being installed in 1,700sqft townhomes that are in 4-blocks is ridiculous. I can literally pic up 30 wifi signals from my neighbors because they all have the Ruckus in their homes but none of them are using them. Literally everyone is using the wifi on their router as indicated by your diagram then blasting the entire neighborhood with your Ruckus wifi signals but not actually using them. I appreciate your assistance but if Ruckus has a clue what is going on (and we both know they do) this forum is a joke because the "real talk" is that every Lennar home owner should just pull their Ruckus network entirely & just use the wifi that is provided by the wifi router they get from their internet provider (since literally every internet provider supplies a wifi router when you subscribe to their service).
I appreciate your knowledge & thorough responses but some honestly & useful info would go a lot further than an accurate smokescreen to get around the fact that these units/systems are not intended for residential use & are especially pointless in a community as dense as ours (Ruckus knows darn well what kinda homes Lennar builds & it ain't 5,000sqft mansions 2 miles from the next neighbor).
