I thought that was the point I was trying to get across. Thus my
recommendation for a high quality switch.
SMC AL2 series managed switches. Have a Cisco type firmware. IVL supported,
unlike the older switch models.
$180 each. Never had one fail in the history of our company. We use them
all over the place.
Allthough the Cisco like telnet interface is confusing.
(with the exception of when water dripped through the inside of a gel filled
CAT5 cable for 350 feet, and dripped into an open jack, shorting it out,
because I had it mounted not considering the possibilty of water dripping.)
Everyone wants to save money if it doesn't compromise the offering. People
don't buy Orthogon because its expensive they buy it because its the
product that is required to solve the problem (Non-LOS).

Does Canopy use VLAN tagging at the CPE?
Yes
I didn't think they did. I thought they just did passthrough like
Trango?
Can do that too.
Canopy doesn't support bandwdith management assignment based on VLANs
does it?
Not per VLAN, but per SM.
How is Canopy's support for VLAN better than Trango's?
Trango has no support for it.
PS. Who cares if Orthogon supports it, because its to darn expensive,
and if you can afford Orthogon, you can afford the extra $180 to put a
VLANrouter/VLANswitch behind it.
First, if you are using an Orthogon to backhaul your network you don't
want it connected to some cheap piece of network equipment. Second, if
you are using an Orthogon to provide service to a customer that service
is going to be expensive enough that the customer isn't going to want a
cheap piece of network equipment either.
