Too bad no one built and certified a system of 8 or 10 ap's with very narrow sectors (how about 24db grids :-). Did you guys know that we CAN use more than 4 watts at the AP's if the systems are designed right and are certified as such? WISPA got that interpretation of the rules done.I remember reading about this, but never managed to find out how narrow the beams would have to be. If 60-90 deg would work, there are MANY good ways to do it.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
