This is not necessarily true. Perhaps it could be argued that you would be stuck for a given location, but not particularly overall. When I was running a WISP, I used MANY types of devices (including a Canopy 20 meg BH). Some I was happy with and others not so much. The ones I wasn't happy with (one example is WaveRider), didn't get much in the way of deployment. I found other workarounds for the looked for, but not found, benefits of the WR system. >It is a well documented phenomena by economists and consumer >scientists that once a person makes a choice that is hard or >impossible to reverse they must then become an evangelist for that >choice.

I'm not sure the reason for your post, but it sounds like you're looking for a fight with someone. Perhaps it's just the email format that makes it seem so... -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://www.wispa.org/ * WISPA Board Member * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * ******************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
