Is there any way to send tables here? Plain text removed all the borders of my table making it unreadable... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Roman <consulttele...@gmail.com> Date: Fri, Jul 8, 2011 at 12:31 AM Subject: Fwd: [WISPA] Choosing core router for small - medium WISP To: wireless@wispa.org Great thanks for all who participated in discussion!

And as the way to thank community and to provoke additional discussion I would like to summarize all the inputs from community members. Hope to get unbiased view of core routers market as it is today. Feel free to criticize it if you want! We can make it even better with help of WISP community!

I need some "rule-of-thumb" in order to apply it for all of my projects to get budget calculation. For example, for projects with not more than 200 subscribers and 10 Mbps backhaul you advise to use configuration "Small". Then, for projects with up to 1000 subscribers and 100 Mbps backhaul, you advise to use configuration "Medium". For every type of configuration I would like to know its technical characteristics and price. Thank you in advance!
