Guys, I need your advice.
I have 500 euro and i want device that Support ssh and 10/100/1000 mbps
Minimum 5ghz Support.
I want to create and delete via ssh WiFi users (unlimited)
The active users at once must be 400-500 for 1gbps link.
The device will be installed on big hotel with 20 floors. Its a massive building.
I want to Support this 20 floors with this device.
I can install the device on top or bottom.
Will be good to have web management for device to track stats for users/networking and so on..
SSH access is a must, stable hardware, Minimum 2 years Warranty and if is for outdoor, must working on -20 degrees.

As egc said, no such one single device exists (based on regulatory requirements on 802.11 a/b/n/ac/ax alone) that can reach 20 floors.
Several hours later, i happen to read it again. And i think you meant the $500 for consulting fee for giving you a solution. And it only makes sense to me this way.
There's a solution that suits your needs. But it depends on the amount time needed to complete it. Unless already in place, the wiring to 20 floors alone will cost you a fair bit. Then hardware device to be installed on each floor and connected to a central location.
The amount you offer is hardly sufficient to cover just one day's works covering configuration, installation and testing of each individual unit so it performs as designed for guests on each floor alone.
Never mind travelling to location from where i live. _________________ Life is a journey; travel alone makes it less enjoyable and lonely.

well.... i've done some small to medium project...but in your case you's need a serious equipment...either enterprise router + WAP's on every floor may be even 2-3-4 on each floor or few customer grade routers and some RJ45 wiring and waps...in both cases 500 euro will be just the daily fee for those that will install the equipment...of course you can improvise and there is lots of info in the forum, how to..so do your homework if you need that option...just bear in mind 5Ghz has very poor range...
