I had to do it like this because of budgetary limitations.  They'll get more
later next year.

For now, this is not really that big of a bottleneck.  Sure, it's a 90 Mbps
bottleneck between two gigabit switches, but in reality, there are less than
10 vehicles out in the that have an RSSI on the 4.4 GHz band to sustain
about 5 Mbps fairly consistently (up to 20 Mbps if they're lucky).

Not all of them will be slamming it with traffic, and the system is just in
staging mode, so it's okay to oversubscribe.

Enough about that, though...so, no one has anything to add about how they'd
do this with FOSS?
