Clearwire was such a screw-over in oh so many ways. What they did to
Intel was legendary.. Talk about getting everyone to drink the Kool-aid...

I agree with that statement. We got a PCN from Comsearch with 255 links
on it (from Clearwire), and 18 of them were at one of our towers. Wha?!?
I talked to the tower manager, and he told me they would have to be
doing major construction in order to accommodate the build out.
In the end, they built none of them.
If Dragonwave made bank on too much of that, they would have put
themselves in major hurt. Well, I guess they did.

Dragonwave kinda killed itself with a massive expansion based on the

the cash.

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.
