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).

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.

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.
