It’s a huge thing in terms of training and availability if there is a field issue.

It’s pretty easy, as are most of the vendors GUI’s. As for our statement about the road trip, that is completely false. If the AP is on the connection side, the client side will always search and connect. Every manufacturer ships with older firmware so again, I don’t see how that is any different than anyone else. As for the SSID, you have to use Chrome. If you use IE, then the save button doesn’t pop up. Chrome lets you type in whatever you want.

I do like that radiowaves has a mimisa interface for the hp line of antennas though, so if need be ill just pull it off and put a saf interface on.
