They work, and they're cheap. Although, I would probably recommend using IgniteNets instead, at this point, because they can (legally) use channel 4.5 (66ghz) now, which is desirable at that distance... the Mikrotiks do work on 66ghz too, but it's not exactly legal at this point.
The nice thing about the Mikrotiks, is that the beamforming antenna makes them a lot easier to align than the Ignitenets, but I think the Ignitenets are a bit more reliable overall, and the cost for the 1Gbps radios isn't that much different On Wed, Feb 5, 2020 at 2:27 PM Mike Meluskey <m...@broadband.vi> wrote: > We have Ignitenet 60Ghz PTP links working up to 1 mile. > > On Wed, Feb 5, 2020 at 4:24 PM Robert Andrews <i...@avantwireless.com> > wrote: > >> We had them running at 800 meters and they were very touchy on alignment >> and tended to go up and down a bit on speeds but went to top speeds with >> a reboot.
