Wavefly,
Yes, I agree. No absolute necessity for a specialist to be local. I
think I have one or two who have been of great help in the past and I'm
not afraid of calling for help when I get into a jam. It's just that
that is not what I'm looking for, I'm presently more interested in
finding written articles on wisps, Mikrotiks and ubnt, Cambium,
(actually it's not so much the brand of radio I'm interested in as it is
the problems encountered and the solutions devised). I'd be very
appreciative if anyone knows of any material on those subjects and if
they would share where they found them. No one person has all the
answers, that's why I'm looking for docs.
I try to always hire the same guys in the hope I can make them permanent
when the time comes.

Just something to think about.
Thank you,

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
