Hello.

I currently have WAC6103D-I (approx. 2 years old) and I (private person) would like to buy a second access point for another floor to strengthen the signal there. According to the technical data and the picture, NWA1123-AC is almost identical to WAC6103D-I. What is the difference? What is the difference? The price difference (167 CHF vs 313 CHF) is big enough for WAC6103D-I to have some killer feature. Unfortunately, I don't know what.

Please clarify what the difference is so that I can make a decision.

Thanks, Christoph

The only difference (except possibly software) seems to be "802.11r Fast Roaming Support in Managed AP Mode". 

If you want to save a bit, you could also take the Zyxel NWA1123-AC v2 (only 2x2 MIMO instead of 3x3 like the AC Pro - but otherwise pretty much the same).

Hello Chris.
Unfortunately I don't know the WAC6103D-I you have.
My NWA1123-AC PRO is like my switch GS1920-8HP Zyxel Nebula capable and so also accessible from holidays. 
Kind regards
Christoph
