I don't know what makes the GUI slow for you or anybody else....I have
literally never seen it load slowly. Even on a crummy old Atom. Even
on a cell phone.
I don't know what to say.
I doubt that 4 of my high end machines all have the same problem. The
interface takes too long when it first shows up. Maybe it's because
it gets all the information at once, maybe not. Don't care. I want
it to be more smooth and faster.
My phone (Droid Maxx) is one of the most recent models for Android.
The interface is terribly slow and clumsy on that.
Well if you feel a poor technology choice was the cause, that's fine,
but it's just flat out wrong. I don't want to carry a big fat i7
laptop up the tower when I could just simply use my phone. It works
with Ubiquiti, FSK Cambium, Tranzeo, Trango, Mikrotik, etc it should
only make sense the one product with a clumsy interface needs fixed
instead of changing my devices that work with the competitors products
(as well as different products under their portfolio).

i'm just stating that on all of our computers i've never seen the
ePMP page load slowly.
maybe it's a computer problem and not a device problem, just
trying to bring valid input to the discussion.

Why are you/others arguing that the speed is just fine? This
doesn't even make sense. There are people with slower laptops
that work with other modern devices and epmp is the only
interface that loads slow. There's no point in arguing
peoples valid complaints. Are you trying to direct the
engineers attention to something else?

Three, maybe four seconds to load the initial screen and
then two maybe three seconds to login. As I doubt a screen
capture will work when I'm RDPed in, I'll record the
entire login process when I get home and post it up on
YouTube.

Login takes forever. The first like 10-15 seconds just
load and load and load. Once you're in, it's acceptable
in terms of page rendering.

we use macbook pro's and the ePMP GUI has never been
slow for us. It was UGLY, but they fixed that with
version 2.0 haha.
not sure why everyone says it's slow tho because we've
never seen it.
2 cents

Ok, Cambium, this is a little sad. My Field
Laptop, a Lenovo S10-3t, Atom Processor with
Windows 8.1 cannot load the EPMP WEB Pages in a
timely manner. We're talking 40-60 seconds for
initial load, and 20-30 seconds per screen
refresh/menu change. Since I'm going to have to
go to the boss, and tell him that I need a new
laptop to do any field troubleshooting for these
new radios, what are the minimum system specs for
a machine to view the EPMP Screens? Unless Cambium
is going to get their Web interface under control
as of Yesterday.
They still swear that the GUI was all developed in
house and not purchased (something I still can't
believe). I'd like to know who the
engineers/managers are who signed off on that
design. I can only imaging that there was a group
of guys sitting around the conference table,
watching the presentation on the GUI on the
projector up front, all nodding their heads in
agreement, "I think this is a wonderful layout,
the field tech's won't mind waiting a couple extra
minutes for the pages to load so they can look
this pretty!!"
I think that Cambium should step up and get
engineers from ALL aspects of product development
out into the field. 40 seconds waiting for the
page to load is fine when you're sitting in the
office, but not when you have the laptop balanced
on a stack of firewood in the freezing rain trying
to get to the monitoring page to see why a radio
isn't linking up. I think that every WISP on this
list would be more than happy to host an engineer
for a day. Heck, even if they go into the parking
lot and assemble it on the tailgate of someone's
Pickup, they'll get some idea of what we experience.
I have a feeling that if all steps of the Dev
process took a week in the field, We'd have a
radio that had a GUI that responded instantly on
any device, and radios that assembled and mounted
(and unmounted) with 1 gloved hand.
