How to mount a Cisco wireless access point to a drop ceiling

This is a quick video on how to mount a Cisco wireless access point to a drop ceiling. The AP in the video is a Cisco 2802i, but the same mounting hardware can be used for many different models such as:
2702, 3702, 3802, 9120, 9130, 9162, 9164, 9166.

The mount I used is the standard mount that's included in the box with APs: AIR-AP-BRACKET-1=

Literally never goes that easy, especially when you are higher up on a ladder and barely reach the mount/AP.
Always works when you try it before it's mounted, once it's time to mount one or more of the holes are misaligned by a few millimeters and the device can't be slid in.
These days I mount the AP in the bracket around 50 times to wear it out a bit, then install it in the ceiling.

What about a surface-mount installation onto a solid concrete ceiling? Is that even possible?
