Which units is that? I have a pair of u7 pros in my house and they’ve never made a peep, though admittedly they don’t get pushed very hard at all; the TV and two main computers are wired, so it’s really just iot junk and phones on the wifi.

The U7 Pros do have a fan, but yeah if you're not pushing them very hard it may not be spinning up.

Aside from noise it's also not ideal for reliability in dusty environments.

Interesting, how about that. I did definitely note that they were considerably more weighty in the hand than the AC-era APs they were replacing.
