@mackworth Where did you order it from?
Tracking for the one from Provantage says I will have it tomorrow. It is one state away as of 5 minutes ago.
Amazon is still promising me Wednesday delivery but it has not shipped yet. That is not uncommon for Amazon though.
Amazingly enough, even though I had to pay for shipping from Provantage and I have free Amazon prime shipping, the total shipping + tax charge for the Provantage order was exactly $1 less than Amazon charged me. I suspect that if I place a bulk order, Provantage will be a lot cheaper. I dont know what kind of inventory they have access to though.
FWIW. Provantage claims to be in Ohio but the AP was shipped from California, so they are most likely just an internet marketing company with access to inventory in warehouses all over the place.

@rickk1000 I ordered the one that was shipped and sold by Amazon. I ordered a switch from provantage a few weeks ago and they shipped it from CA to the east cost and it took forever via fedex ground.

@mackworth weird... I just checked again and mine is still unshipped. I wonder if they ran out already. I'll definitely let you know if it shows up on Wednesday as they promised or not

@mackworth Tracking for the one from Provantage says it will be delivered later today.
Amazon finally marked the one that I ordered from them as "shipped" and is promising delivery tomorrow.
I noticed that the delivery time in the listing has changed from 2 days to 7 days, so there must be some logistics issues popping up.
At least I will have two to play with. I will order a couple more in a week or two once the supply chain becomes stable and give them a complete comparison to the EAP225-outdoor performance.
While I have no more large scale deployments scheduled for this season, if they work well I might be able to sell some systems early next spring.

I've received 2 of the 3 from Amazon...very happy with them so far.
I can pull my full download bandwidth (200Mbps) from 150'. Upload bandwidth, I'm only seeing about 15-20% from 150'.
