You shouldn't have to worry too much about the old product because I think they did a 100% field upgrade at no cost to owners of those AUs, right? You should still check, but I would hope it'd be unusual to find an upgraded unit for sale. Chuck On Sep 29, 2009, at 12:30 AM, Nick Huanca

I have no experience with the Waverider equipment, but Alvarion's pretty darn good (and we do have experience with that). Chuck On Sep 28, 2009, at 5:24 PM, my_em...@webjogger.net wrote: Hi, We're planning to upgrade a lot of our 900MHz equipment which is currently predominantly Alvarion

I had around 12 waverider lms8000 radios installed. They were a nightmare. We had problems from day one and pulled all of them. Unless they have made some changes I would stay away from them. Also the dongle on the 8000's were a big problem. Sent from my iPhone - End of message -
