It's easy if your AP's support multiple SSID and VLAN tagging per SSID. We have 10 VLAN/SSID combinations for various agencies such as Fire, Sherrif, local PD, nearby city PD, city inspectors, etc. These VLAN's run over our Canopy network to our headend and show up on individual ports on our

Hello Gino, Checkout FREECRM.com I use it and it works well it starts free and can be used that way but, if you want some of the advanced features it is 14.99 a month. This is way cheaper than other options and it does a good job Tracy Tippett --Original Mail-- From: Gino Villarini

I have used all of the CRM solutions in your second sentence and they are good but, they are costly. FREECRM offers a CRM solution that is comparable and is actually free for simple small sales forces. It rocks! Tracy Tippett --Original Mail-- From: Tom DeReggi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:

[WISPA] routers

Hi, I'm looking for a recommendation on an Ethernet router (two ports or more) that is somewhere in between a $50 Linksys and a $500 Cisco ASA. Something that will do some basic QoS would be nice. Any suggestions? thanks, Travis Microserv

I very much wish there was a decent midrange router with this many ports for StarOS. There are several powerful boards for wireless which we're extremely happy with, but multi-port routers are lacking. Anyone who uses StarOS care to share what you use for Star routers...low-power small
