Are MikroTik access points still a royal pain to configure and maintain? I use their switches, but not their APs.

Decades ago, I was a network engineer working in production data centers. I’m used to setting up switches manually. But I have no professional experience with setting up meshed WiFi networks. I like that the Ubiquiti APs “just work” for the most part.

I’ve started to notice weird AP/client failures with my ubiquiti gear and debugging is a nightmare. It seems that ubiquiti has hidden a lot of useful information in an overzealous effort to streamline UX.
