Which will be a darn shame, as San Francisco is a near perfect city for a
Wide Scale PtMP cell type engineered WISP network, based on the layout of
the city, and where the high spots are. But I'm sure they'll ruin it with
the high power Omni on every corner design.

You bring up an interesting point, comparing to GSM..
The problem is, in a democracy full of special interests, how does one
determine fairly what that compatibilty standard should be?
One of the Reasons WiMax still is not deployed, while non-standards product
are flourishing.
Is it better to

Here in Atlanta you can't use 2.4 unless it is indoors. In fact, you
have to get out 90+ miles before the noise floor drops off enough to
even think about it.

As you and every wisp who has deployed more than a few AP's in urban

Two nice options depending on how much you want to do
1. Xincom Dual WAN Router - will load balance, fail save, no firewall.
2. Mikrotik - will do everything the Xincom can do and then some,
including firewalling. But you have to learn how to work with it. Every

What is really funny is that they used Hewlett Packard. Why not Cisco,

OK. You mentioned some convenient factors regarding Tropos.
But what software benefits does it have over other MESH that will allow it
to work better than other mesh?
Thats what really matters, and I'm not sure that they have a superior
software platform. Refering to intelligent routing and

You laugh, but there are ISPs with less than 50 broadband customers.

That's 114 a year, it's 9.50 a sub on a monthly rate.

You got it. In a democracy full of special interests, who decides?
It depends on the charter of who is organizing the standard and who the
participants are.

Bob,
It's $9.50 per month per user, after only 50 days of evangelizing. Not
even the SBCs of the world are selling it for that. And as soon as
grandma Jones and Bob down the street figure out what's going on,
they'll sign up, too. So it will only be $4.16/mo. when they hit the
8,000 mark.
George,
I agree with you but...
Not all Muni Projects are being designed under that model. Some intent is
actually legitimately help the expansion of broadband to those in need, and
help the growth of local providers. Our job, whether we signed up for the
role or not, is to incourage that
