Lets not forget the rules may not be the same depending on what type certification one is looking for.
If Mikrotik got a part B certification for the hardware board, and MT makes the hardware board, its irrelevent where an end user buys the board, Mikrotik is responsible for the certification that they had gotten for their hardware. However, for wireless system certifications (forget technical name of type) its a different story. The software, hardware, and RF have to all get certified togeather. And it was clear their had to be a "responisble party" aka the "manufacturer". So certifying a combination yourself would make yourself the manufacturer. Can one be, without any control of the software code writing? I would think an authroized distributor would gain Mikrotik's endorsement for gaining such support. But does the FCC require it or allow it, considering intelectual property considerations?
