So, less than two years payback on 10 subs. Without borrowing a dime.  Now, jump it up to real world numbers, 20 subs or more. Now, finance the equipment with the extra cash flow you now have. Many, many companies are happy with 10 year payback. 20 months is pretty good. Sure, you're used to

You think so? Take a look at ANY of the LTE solutions and then come talk about cost. :) 2500 for an AP seems steep, but amortizes VERY quickly with 10 clients. JP On Tue, 29 May 2018 23:58:02 -0400, RickG wrote > Cambium 450i 900 is very pricey! > > On Tue, May 29, 2018 at 12:56 PM, Josh

[Ubnt_users] No signal lights on AF11X are lit but the link is up with great signal?

2018-05-30 Thread mike . lyon
Howdy! Was configuring and bench testing a pair of AF11x today. Had the two radios talking to each other with great signal quality. But, the signal quality lights on either radio weren’t lit up. Any idea on how to fix this? Thank You, Mike ___

The best price I can find is well over $2500. That's 10 times the cost of a UBNT Rocket 900. On Wed, May 30, 2018 at 2:48 PM, Rory Conaway wrote: > It’s not too bad. We have one up, might put up a second one. > > > > Rory > > > > *From:* ubnt_users-boun...@wispa.org *On > Behalf Of *RickG >
