I'm looking at buying a couple of EAP 225s to provide outdoor coverage for two houuses about 15 meters apart - But I haven't been able to confirm how much memory or The CPU it uses to determine if it would meet my needs. I'm looking to run a few Wireguard connections to route traffic through some other gateways as well as proving WAN access for approx five people. Would want to provide captive portals for visitors and some age related content filtering of Internet access for selected devices.

Ah yeah Im looking at the outdoor version. Does it have the same cpu/memory? Looks like its about €75

What do you use the AP for?

I use it for WiFi access. Mine has 1gb of ram but it is not used heavily

My upstream router has 128mb of ram and it idles in around 50mb
