Just in case anyone looks this thread up in the future... We're likely going with Aviat and their "DAC GE card EXD-181-002" cards. >From the company: "Yes the Ethernet card does support jumbo frame size, IPV6 and MPLS EXP bits, QOS and VLANs with 802.1q tagging." scott

One more add: Properly engineered, fixed wireless links can have better-than-wireline availability. Two jobs ago, we had customer links with zero dropped packets in 5 years, which is outstanding compared to most copper-based services. Properly engineered, however, is the key. Make sure whom-ever
