Isn't that the real skill in business. Knowing when to hold 'em vs
knowing when to fold 'em...

Dragonwave kinda killed itself with a massive expansion based on the

Did Clearwire do all the damage to those companies through the massive
ramp-up of orders and then abruptly stopping the purchasing, or is there
something else that I'm missing?

That was a very different BridgeWave though. Pre-Siklu having 80GHz
products.
They were sold to REMEC which was then sold to Moseley. There is
only one person left there that I worked with, who is a sales guy on
the East Coast (Jim Norton).
Sprint/Clearwire did a lot of damage to Bridgewave, just as they did
to Dragonwave.
I don't have any opinion of them now.

I really don't know anyone that I can recall singing the praises
of Bridgewave except for Daniel - while he worked for them. I
have had bad experiences myself and I know a handful of others in
a similar boat.

This is a bit unsettling. I'm looking some Navigator links. The
price/performance seems pretty good IMO, and the single radio
sparing is a big plus. I remember Nathan from Wisper swearing off
Bridgewave because of some random issues with links as well.
Yeah I really don't know what to think. I have microwave gear from
SAF,
Exalt, and Cambium/Ceragon and those have all been rock solid in all
kinds of places. I thought these would be in the same category but
it's
been nothing but problems. The 10+ minute reboot times are beyond
frustrating too.
One thing that struck me as odd was that when I did back to back
testing
on the bench with waveguide that even in what I felt should be
perfect
RF conditions they wouldn't reach full modulation. Support said
that was
to be expected because of the attenuators being used and since these
were new and I was new to Bridgewave I went ahead and deployed them.
Down for 2 hours, so many reboots later, and it finally came up
again.
Why? Nobody knows. But now it won't modulate above QAM on one side.
These Bridgewaves weren't cheap and even if I'm able to get to the
bottom of why they are being crap I don't think I'll ever be able to
trust them without a parallel link from another vendor.
