John,

I'll keep this in mind as the company grows. Good sound advice. This is a rural area, people with these skills only move here if there is profit in it.

Mistakes are painful so finding good information is paramount to read prior to any decisions being made.

Hire an experienced person who has been there done that. I don't meen a consultant. Start building your team with good, smart people. Several disciplines are necessary to build and grow. Network admin, wireless admin, system admin are a few of the technical roles necessary. Sometimes you can get lucky and find a great multi disciplened person, but it's fairly rare.

    Joe,

    I too have spent thousands of hours building my networks. I'm
    tired of wasting time and $$ on dis-information, half-way there
    solutions and thought that perhaps I should be asking this
    particular group as the members of this group should be the ones
    who would have good helpful answers.

    I'm looking for articles, documents covering solutions for the
    authors and setups that actually worked.  I want to avoid making
    more expensive mistakes and I want to read about other peoples
successes and how they got there. Has anyone actually published? What traps did they hit and what were the fixes?

    Jan,

    We started with a consultant building a small network in Florida
    that is now up to 17 nodes. The consultant we used was a little
    slow but provided great documentation and got us well on our way.
    Since then we have expanded into 2 other cities all of which has
    been done in house. Feel free to re3ach out off-list and I can
    provide our consultant as well as give you some experiences we
    have had using Ubiquiti, Netonix and our distributors.

    *Subject:* Re: [Mikrotik Users] network topology suggestions

    I thought I was being fairly specific about my question.  I don't
    want to go "off-list", because then the answers help no one else
    and defeats the main purpose of this membership-fee mail-list
    users group. I'm very sick-n-tired of dumping $money$ down
    endless rabbit-holes of manufacturer reps/products/consultants
    for answers which could be in public-domain if only they could be
    found.  Maybe there is another user-group I should pay-for instead?

    _I'm looking for articles written by users of Mikrotik and
    Ubiquiti._  Mikrotik usage is buried in obfuscation of language
    and translation where down seems to be up and details are often
    somewhere in-between vs what is written in the RTFM!.  Ubiquiti
    doesn't want to go outside of their own product line in any
    discussion.  And, I don't want to get trapped into using a
    specific vendor for obvious reasons.

    Should I continue with hiring consultants who promise
    documentation that never come?  And which ones actually do, they
    all promise, none deliver.  Should I pour $$ into manufacturers
    to then find out I can't do what is needed because I followed
    their advice and bought the wrong gear?  Been down this street too!

    OK, so I'm venting
