I just completed over 60+ subs on 450 3.65 and had to add another. I say i had 
to but the graphs say otherwise. I probably keep going but rather wait till 
final hour 
we just added another sector to pick up some of those subs between both 
sectors. So now I have room to add 100 more if I need to.

I haven't had any of the "scale issues" you all say are so terrible, at least 
ones that haven't been addressed with my latest platform move (ePMP) (sync). 
Sectors and sync solve most of the "scale" issues. 

People complain about can't put more than 30 subs on an AP. Great! I don't want 
more than 30 or so subs on an AP anyway. That's easier to say when you're not 
paying $3k for them.

Do you have any LTE in your network, or PMP450 for that matter? I thought you 
went the ePMP route.

It won't scale as well as LTE. If you think otherwise, point me to any network 
out there running 20M+ customers on Canopy. ;-)

I have to agree, it's perfectly possible to build a good network with just 
about any gear out there, but you do need to know what you're doing and know 
the limits of what that gear can do... and not having sync makes frequency 
planning extremely challenging after awhile. 

I don't think there's really any question that Canopy is going to scale better 
than anything else that's out there right now, but in our area it's pretty rare 
that we actually can get more than 30ish customers on a sector due to natural 
limitations... which makes wifi based gear a lot more practical.

Must have WISPs that would have failed no matter what gear they used. My 
network touches 12 other WISPs. I've been running for over 10 years. I've 
largely ran Mikrotik and Ubiquiti, moving to ePMP, then moving to AC sync 
Bitlomat and\or Mimosa when they're ready. 

Almost five years ago I bought a network that ran Canopy because that's the 
thing to do! Yeah, he had multiple towers in the same band within 5 miles that 
didn't sync with each other. Almost every AP was an omni in suburban Chicago. 
Had no idea how to do any sort of networking. I've since pulled all of that 
crap and replaced it with UBNT or ePMP sectors. 

A few years ago an out of area WISP bought out an area WISP that was Canopy 
based. The purchaser had been helping the purchasee for several months (maybe a 
couple years?) because they didn't know what they were doing. 

There is at least one other WISP in the area that's been going at least as long 
as I have... 802.11 based. An area WISP aggregator... 802.11 based from what 
I've seen. 

What gear you use has less to do with your success than properly engineering a 
network.

I agree with Kurt. EPMP and ubnt have a place and work ok but I've been doing 
this for 12 years and the only equipment that works for voip, vpn, gaming, 
reliability, and just dam works is cambium 100 to 450. And as for mimosa and AC 
hardware, i hope they have a great product but unless it can do what 450 can do 
for reliable links it has no place in my network. Every ubnt wisp that has 
popped up in my service area has either quit or pulled out of my area.

Matt, 

That pricing lines up with what I was told by Cambium at the shows. I am going 
to assume that since its MSRP that WISPS can buy at 80% of that price level so 
then we are looking at $1160.00 for the lite AP and then the upgrade key so 
that is right there with what a full-AP would have cost so really no price 
disadvantage to start out with the lite-AP. 

This is wonderfull news! I am planning on ripping out a bunch of EPMP and 
putting 450 in its place.
