Not totally sure if you-all can access this URL. It is where the survey responses are. When I click it it goes right to it. But it may have cached my IP or I might have a cookie so it isn't requiring a username or password. Would someone please check this to see if the results are open to all?

It started on the Motorola mailing list? Really? News to me. I thought it was started at [EMAIL PROTECTED] So where is the Alvarion and Trango mailing list? Perhaps you should start one there. Or invite them to participate? But I restate my earlier prognostication, human nature requires you to

Some use multiple technologies mixed. 34 use canopy. I have sent the detail. Looks believable to me. I guess the is the problem, I state a metric, like Mot reports having half the market. So someone says they are full of crap and that nobody can believe something like that. (Part of being a

Mac, Since this industry has really started to mature, I would not be surprised if this data is pretty close to the industry as a whole. While the makeup of the WISPA member WISP's may not all be big like this, there are certainly plenty of them that aren't members. Here is a link to a rep

Chuck, I think someone (read - as in very many) have stretched the truth with your survey. I could be wrong, (not the first time) but according to your poll the 43 WISPs have an average of 1153.418 subscribers each! It appears that 27 of the 43 WISPs used Canopy and those 27 ISPs count for a

That is a great point Tom, I definitely agree that "there is a [huge] difference between a large wisp and a roll up". Don't get me wrong, Digis had plenty of rollin up goin for them; however, when I was an installer at Digis we installed over 900 fixed-point customers in one month (all on Canopy),
