I need to do a set up for a large conference hall, specifically:
We will have to cover about 18 employee's who need Inet, and 6-9 static systems, all laptops.
With that the hall will be filled with about...200-300 people.
We will not be providing internet for them but the distance between stations will be decent
dead middle 3 laptops, possibly 4
far right side 4-6 laptops
far left side 2-4 laptops
and just out front of the hall possibly 2 more.
Since getting a dedicated line is ridiculously expensive we are taking from the locations internet.
I want to set up 1 router as the incoming point and create our own private LAN and then go from there with AP's.
I was considering the Ubiquiti systems but wasn't completely sure what to use specifically, i wanted to do the router + 1 or 2 AP's in the room just incase.

Do i just get 2 x UniFi AP (UAP) and repeat them off the main router?
Due to size we cant have cable running all over the place so the AP would have to be set as repeaters i presume.
Are the Ubiquiti routers any good or would i be better off with say a Linksys E series?
With Ubiquiti it would give 1 nice interface for configuration correct?
