Wireless Bridges for point to point links
We are looking at replacing some of our legacy bridges and I was curious to see what are others are using for wireless point to point links?

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Wireless Bridges for point to point links
We use Ruckus Wireless bridging. Works great in all weather, no hassle on setup since they can be married at the factory. I replaced one end from a lightening hit, setup was painless.

We have used a pair of Bridgewave GE60 units for years and they have worked well.

RE: Wireless Bridges for point to point links
Depends on bandwidth you're looking for and range. We use: - Exalt r5005 80 up/80 down, can be slid around within limit of 160 Mbps aggregate. Good range, measured in miles. Good value, easy config - Bridgewave Gigabit (60 series) shorter range- carrier grade. Pricey, but get what you pay for - Playing with Ubiquiti AirFiber- 1.4 Gbps over miles- cheap but if lives up to it's promis could be disruptive at under $3K set Lee H.

Cisco 7.3 Code and ISC DHCP
Our most recent shipment of Cisco 3600 APs came with a preloaded 7.3 image and appear to be ignoring the DHCP offers being sent to them from our ISC DHCP server. While spanning the port the AP is on, it is evident the offers are being sent from the DHCP server, yet the AP's debug messages insist its discovers are going unanswered. Once the AP is configured with a static IP, it will then connect to the controller, running 7.2, and downgrade its image, at which point we clear the config (so the static IP is forgotten and the AP is forced to use DHCP) and the AP accepts the same DHCP offer without fail. Wondering if anyone else who has migrated to 7.3 code with CAP3602I's and using ISC DHCP is experiencing this, or if this is specific to our DHCP settings? At the moment, I've got a case open with Cisco and am waiting on development to respond...Thanks.** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco 7.3 Code and ISC DHCP
This is not completely related, but we just upgraded one of our Cisco routers, after the upgrade dhcp stopped working because one dhcp option was blank.'Debug IP dhcp server' was the only way we would have noticed this problem. The router was silently discarding the replies. ...sent from my mobile device spelling and grammar my suffer...
