Yep. I quit buying Cisco small business stuff 13 years back. They have done many things more egregious than this.

Apparently Cisco's great if you deploy a couple of them, everything working seamlessly together with one management software. If you pony up for their licenses that is.

For anything smaller that doesn't need that, I don't see the point in buying (new) Cisco hardware.

This is what all the vendors say about their stuff.
