I think it's fair to say that any ISP of size has in fact done this once if not twice. It's not the end of the world unless there was little planning done beforehand. I've experienced both. grin We do not use DHCP anywhere, but within the client LAN environment. However, I don't see where

Mission critical equates to multiple paths and technologies in my book. Network hardware can break whether it costs $100 or $100,000. I would consider a licensed unlicensed combination for this path. If your sites will allow you could go with 6GHz and a 5Ghz failover path. Both links could

Doesn't 11Ghz have a 4' minimum or was that changed? Last rumor I heard was you might be able to get a 3' or possibly even a 2' approved for 11GHz, but if it becomes a problem then you'll be forced to change to an antenna that doesn't cause a problem with a tighter pattern...like 4'. Best,
