sizing tool for AP's

bford

Is there a similar sizing tool for WG AP's like they have for the Fireboxes?
Is there a recommended number of devices connected to each model of AP is what I'm after.
I need to upgrade 3 of our AP120's but I'm unsure which AP replacement is best for each environment.
I have one dept. that has 10 devices consistently connected 24-7 plus added random users and two that are more random connections, 3-6 randomly during the day.
My thought or question is would the one with the 10 connections be better served with the AP330 and the other two with the AP130.

Are there published limits and when to upgrade to the next model?

Hi @bford
WatchGuard provides a Wi-Fi design service for WatchGuardOne partners, where we provide recommendations for the number of APs and approximate location. There's quite a bit of data that goes into providing AP recommendations, so it'd be difficult to condense it down into a short form like the appliance sizing tool.
If you'd like to take advantage of this service, please contact one of our partners, who can initiate the process for you. You can find partners local to you via findpartner.watchguard.com

The end-of-life page indicates that the replacement for the AP120 is the AP130.
