Here was the original part of the message (that somehow got left off
your reply): "For a very long time we got caught in the Canopy mentality "my Canopy is better than your <<any other vendor here>>" We finally opened our eyes, got jumped out of the gang, and are very happy we did. It seems a lot of Canopy operators have the mentality that WiFi sucks -- probably because they too started with it years ago, when it really did suck."And I am buying Canopy AP's and SM's for way less than MSRP.... WAY LESS.

I will buy 200 AP's and 5,000 CPE. ;)That kind of density is NOT necessary for MANY WISPs. I know that is the cry that nearly ALL Canopy Koolaid drinkers use, but it does not apply to everyone. For those that need it...Canopy offers a very nice solution that works, works well and is affordable because it is NEEDED. For those that don't...Canopy is WAY to expensive to be worth the extra $$.Don't take this as a "jab" because it isn't intended that way, but why would you post a message that indicates that someone was inviting you to switch your Canopy out for WiFi? Nobody made such a suggestion and (IMHO) reacting in the way you did is just plain rude. |
