​Several times a day when busy in Expo I saw more than 20
non-SCALE AP's at higher dbms than our 2.4 and our 5G radios
were all weaker.  Probably 35 to 50 APs singing at once. 

My tools:  Android SG Note4 running "WifiAnalyzer" and
"WifiScanner".

As for as hiding staff SSID that is a waste of time, I dont think many, if any of the public was thinking they needed to join to the staff network. At some point you cant fix stupid.

I'm going to disagree.  This is a UX thing we can make better. Don't show people things they dont need. 

I think the biggest problem with SSID was the amount of non SCALE ssid showing up, where this was the biggest problem was on the expo floor where at any given time there was 20+ SSIDs.

We can't control all the hotel APs. We can remind exhibitors not to run their own, but only if we can ensure the wireless setup is flawless from the minute they show up.
