Cutting too many corners on backhaul is like cutting too many corners on brakes or tires.
I used the ah boards for everything. More processor and memory etc. I just put in a backhaul link that pulled over 30 megs both ways on a 6 or so mile shot. My cost on it was under $800. When I bought my first backhaul link it was around $5k for a BreezeCOM DS.11 wifi link capable of a whopping 4ish megs. I've gone the cheapo route for backhaul and I've gone the nice way. It's a LOT cheaper to install good (not always great) hardware. You'll have far fewer phone calls etc. Hope that helps Steve, marlon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Barnes" <st...@pcswin.com> To: "WISPA General List" <wireless@wispa.org> Sent: Monday, June 07, 2010 7:00 AM Subject: [WISPA] Repeater >I have avoided repeaters like the plague but I have a situation where I >have one and I am looking for a better option.
