Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the Cisco Meraki MR36 used for?
The MR36 is a cloud-managed indoor Wi-Fi 6 access point that delivers secure, high-performance wireless connectivity for offices, retail stores, schools, clinics, and other business environments where fast and reliable Wi-Fi is essential.
Does the MR36 support Wi-Fi 6?
Yes. The MR36 is fully 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) compliant, using 2×2 MU-MIMO and OFDMA to improve network efficiency and handle multiple devices simultaneously.
Do I need a licence to use the MR36?
Yes. Every Meraki access point requires an active Enterprise, Advanced, or Upgrade licence. The licence enables cloud management, firmware updates, and 24/7 technical support.
Is the MR36 suitable for high-density environments?
The MR36 is ideal for low-to-moderate density deployments such as typical office floors and retail spaces. For very high-density locations (large auditoriums or stadium seating), consider models like the MR44 or MR46 that offer more radio streams and higher peak throughput.

Can I power the MR36 with a standard wall plug?
The MR36 is typically powered via 802.3af PoE. If your switch does not support PoE, you can use the compatible Cisco MA-PWR-30W-AU power adaptor (sold separately in Australia).
