Thanks Doug, I'll check that out. It's probably not a big deal, but I left out that this will be a free connection which I'll limit to about 256Kbps. In return for this, I get several water tanks to deploy on ;)

I've only used in small indoor MTU deployments but I like Meraki, indoor and outdoor versions available. Outdoor Mesh router, auto-failover, auto-gateway, built in hotspot, like less than $100. NetEquality.net has some nice pics and also custom antenna attachments, and you can see actual mesh network maps overlaid on google maps. There's an online dashboard included which shows paths, users per AP, logs usage data, even (later) collect money, although I think I will be using Chillispot for that myself. You can plug one into an active internet connection (wireless backhaul, DSL, cable), and it automatically becomes a gateway. You can have one with no connection that's a repeater, and you can sell one to customers without wifi and it becomes a CPE. It's all very simple, and as long as you avoid too many hops (like 3) you should be fine. ----- Original Message ----- From: "RickG" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "WISPA General List" <wireless@wispa.org> Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 8:26 PM Subject: [WISPA] Main Street USA > If YOU had to implement a "muni wireless" 802.11 hotspot to cover Main > Street USA, which is about 1 mile long.
