Nice thing about the M2 is the directional antenna. If the router ends
up next to an outside wall, then whatever energy you're transmitting
into the wall with an omni is wasted....especially if it's in a corner.
But yeah, no pretty way to install that.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Managed routers for customers
All the best long range routers are a base unit with 2 range extender's
issues I've seen with over powered routers like the nighthawk is when
customer is next to the router the signal can get way too hot and the
customer will think the internet is dropping really the best solution
is a cambium router and buy 2 range extenders and up sell it as the
ultimate range or something like that
I have also had good success putting a NanoM2 in router mode and making
it the wifi router you can manage it and it has crazy range but dose
not look very nice

Managing said router is a good upsell and helps your customer's
experience with your service.
I've seen people charge between $4-$12/mo for this service.
Basically, you're responsible for: firmware upgrades, port forwards,
vpns, telling them their wireless password, etc.
Not only does it help keep your network secure, but it keeps your
customers happy and can be quite profitable.

What does everyone use/offer for managed customer routers?
We use the Cambium R200P router currently, however we are
looking for
one with better wireless range. In general circumstances the
router
works fine, but we are looking for a good all in one,
manageable
router with excellent range - and maybe dual band (I know the
R201P
exists). The R200P seems pricey for simply single band 2.4ghz.
Not too hung up on the ability to power the CPE through the
router.
Poe bricks are fine.
Thanks
