Hey Marlon, I wanted to reply to this to you and on the lists to answer your questions and make some things clearer, as there are some points of confusion that can definitely be cleared up (now and going forward) on our part.
Deliberant and Ligowave are sister companies. Originally our new CPE offerings were going to be launched on the Ligowave side of the house, but we decided to move all of the standards (802.11) stuff to Deliberant and focus Ligowave on the proprietary (PTP, PTMP, Mesh) solutions. The first round of gear shipped with the Ligowave FCC stickers as the updated Deliberant ones were not available yet, hence the different stickers. Everything now has Deliberant stickers on them. VPOL is with the cat5 connector pointing down, you are correct. HPOL is with the cat5 connector to the side (rotated 90*). Confusing, yes, and the stickers should be here soon. We do need to add the instructions for the cat5 connector and the support number to the quick start guide. The first one is always the trickiest! The support number is the main number at 800-742-9865, and it is open 9-5 Eastern. My direct extension is in my signature. We are completely overhauling the GUI with a Flex backend that is much faster. We have a beta available, so contact me offlist if you are interested. RSSI value listed on the Status page is basically the difference between received signal and the noise floor. So if you have an RSSI value of 40, there is 40dB between the noise floor and what you are receiving. We have plans to add the actual received level (in dB) to the Status page soon, and until then if you do a Site Survey on the Tools page you can see the levels there as well. Bridge mode should work, but I have some ideas. Shoot me your IP info offlist (radio, gateway, rest of the local network segment, etc) and we can troubleshoot. When you enable Router mode, a Firewall tab should appear that will allow you to port forward. Any other questions, please feel free to ping me offlist or give me a ring at my number and extension in my signature. We appreciate the feedback and look forward to your (and everyone else's) assistance in improving our products.

Schafer Sent: Monday, October 06, 2008 6:35 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] deliberant/ligowave Hi All, I just installed my first radio from these guys. (Anyone know if it's the same company????) I'm tossing out my very first thoughts as I'm still at the customer's location, this is as raw as it'll get. First thing I noticed was a box that said Deliberant and a radio that said LigoWave. Probably the same company but it would be nice if the stickers matched. Next, no polarity marking of any kind on it. My guess of vertical being all stickers and connectors down seems to be correct. Nothing tells you how to put the outdoor connector together. I've done them before so I knew which way to put that tapered gasket in, but my first time I'm not sure I'd have gotten it right. No tech support phone number in the manual. If it's there I couldn't find it. The interface is slow. Definitely God's gift to the hourly wage guy. I'm trying this unit at a location that runs VPN and VoIP out of a home office. Ever since I installed an MT AP her Tranzeo CPQ unit does the disconnect thing and drops her calls and connections. Speeds are good, pings are good etc. But stuff just don't work. A Ubiquity at this location worked just fine till it decided it wasn't going to listen to the AP anymore (-90 or worse rssi when the replacement Tranzeo CPE unit had -65ish). This unit has a 40rssi. Whatever THAT means. I sure hate those random signal level meters. Give me the dB so that I can do a better job of troubleshooting. Never did get this unit to pass data in bridge mode. It would connect but I couldn't get more than 1 ping at a time to go. Web pages would start but not load. In router mode it works fine. Router mode has no port forwarding options. Not an issue this time, but without a working bridge mode I'll have to be careful where they get used. The hardware was easy to set up. No instructions offered, but none needed (other than the polarity sticker that needs to be there). Speeds are good. Seeing 7 to 9 megs down and up. Just like the original Tranzeo CPQ radio gives. Now to see if it'll stay connected and give stable service to the customer. laters, marlon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- WISPA Wants You!
