I agree. We first started as a Canopy 900 Mhz WISP. We have lots and I mean lots of hills around here. You normally can not go over 3 hundred feet without hitting a hill in your way. We started by using 900Mhz Canopy equipment. I will hear disputes from my partner....but it is still the same. When we first started it was 900MHZ Canopy even in the small town we covered, even LOS!
I have been trading out Canopy 900 MHZ equipment for "SHEESH" Tik AP and UBIQUITY cpe AND HAVE HAD ) 0 (ZERO) PROBLEMS!
