Genuinely Frustrated - What Version of AOS is Actually Stable?

Hey all,

I am currently running AOS 8.10.x and the GUI has just been horrible. Our stack is dual 7210 HA Mobility Masters with 7008 MCs connected via VPN.

On the MM GUI, it appears the entire monitoring section is just plain broken. The AP list doesn't load unless I refresh the page 5x, the clients list just doesn't load, deleted MCs stay in the GUI for weeks, etc etc. I've tested Firefox, Chrome, and Safari, and all just seem to bug out in similar ways.

So, what is the most bulletproof 8.x version? We have a mix of 325, 205 RAP, and 535, so it must be 8.10 or lower. We do not have 6ghz and are holding off on that for a while for various reasons. So far I have tried 8.10.0.7, 8.10.0.21, 8.10.0.22, and all just don't work well. I'm at a complete loss and I'm willing to go far back as 8.5 just to be able to monitor everything from the MM again and have the GUI not take a minute to load a basic page.

Cisco 3504 WLC DTLS License Question

Hello all.

Bit of an odd project with older hardware. I'm building a network system for my friends where we all have cisco desk phones and can call eachother. I also share services like plex with them.

I have been using basic site to site vpns for a while, but wanted to add wireless and a simple way to manage the remote site units. In addition, I wanted to build a single SSID for all of us that allows for seamless device joining at all of our homes.

This led me down the path to buying a 3504 WLC with some licenses on eBay and some 1815 remote worker APs.

However, when I was doing some research, I saw some mentioning you need a DTLS license for tunneled traffic back to the WLC. Do I need a separate license for my 3504 running 8.10.196? Or will traffic tunneling work just fine without? I have a Cisco licensing account through work and poked around but couldn't find a way to generate a DTLS license for my specific model.

Also, for those who will say use a 9800, I only have one static IP at my home, and 9800 requires 1:1 nat which I couldn't get working. The 3504 on the other hand seems to work just fine through nat. When I tried to spin up a 9800CL and set the NAT IP as my static IP from my ISP, I kept getting a no valid ap manager found on the APs.
