Get on the Alvarion Webinar next week, 900Mhz VL is coming.

Im familiar with WR performance etc. Can anybody speak to Trango and Tranzeo? The Tranzeo cpe price point is pretty compelling.

Waverider: Pretty solid stuff, but horribly overpriced IMO. Also the brand name has been passed around a couple times, and every few months I hear vicious rumors about how it's gonna get discontinued or at least re-made in a new and wholly incompatible way. Not bad, but there's better stuff out there. Built-in bandwidth management and QOS, and the polling mechanism is nice. Trango: Haven't used their 900 gear. Tranzeo: Amazingly awesome. The same unit is AP and CPE (just flip a software switch), so you don't have to keep two kinds of spares on the shelf. Reasonably priced, very flexible (client devices can be transparent bridges or NATting routers depending on what your customers need). This is all based on gear we've bought and used in the last six months or so; I can't speak to the old Tranzeo gear. No built-in bandwidth management, so you may need something else at your tower for that, but a Routerboard is cheap. Also consider Motorola's Canopy gear (I haven't used it, but some folks swear by it). David Smith MVN.net WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] 900 Mhz recommendation
I have one ptp link with trango 900. It's working well so far. It's been in place for about 2 years. Have to reboot from time to time. But not often. It's certainly not a good path. There are trees, buildings and maybe a hill in the way. marlon - Original Message - From: chris cooper [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'WISPA General List' wireless@wispa.org Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2008 11:04 AM Subject: [WISPA] 900 Mhz recommendation Im looking at 3 different 900 Mhz PTMTP systems - Trango, WR and Tranzeo.

Re: [WISPA] 900 Mhz recommendation
I had 3 Trango 900 pops. One of them the ap worked but I couldn't get into it. I added a Ubiquiti XR9 sector and moved all the subs over to it. I was worried the XR9 wouldn't go where Trango would. Guess what, XR9 worked just fine. So performance wise, they are the same results to me. Speed on the XR9's are much much better. Price on the XR9 is cheaper at the cpe and at the pop, it's almost not even an expense. Not sure though, that the XR9's on a heavily loaded pop are going to perform as well. Seems I've heard some awfully high numbers from trango users over the years. May be a consideration. Marlon K. Schafer wrote: I have one ptp link with trango 900. It's working well so far.

Re: [WISPA] 900 Mhz recommendation
You had to change the CPE's as well as the POP to switch to the XR9, right? Or are you saying the XR9 is compatible with Trango? I always hoped that the Tranzeo 900MHz CPE would be compatible with the ubquity SR9 or XR9, but no luck so far. Blair George Rogato wrote: I had 3 Trango 900 pops.

Yes, I had to replace the trango cpe with a war1-xr9. Blair Davis wrote: You had to change the CPE's as well as the POP to switch to the XR9, right?
