   The fact you say it's a nice radio is encouraging, Tom, for me since 
I'm considering deploying it.
   But it would still be nice to hear from one or two wISP's who can 
say yeah, I have one installed; it's working fine, or whatever the 
feedback is.

   Anyone???

price. I really see no reason a 70-80Ghz radio needs to be any more 
costly than the 60Ghz ones.

Hi,
   Several weeks ago I posted BridgeWave and GigaBeam prices and 
quick features of wireless Gbps gear.

   Has anyone tried or know about this option:
 -- Proxim Gigalink 6451e- 60Ghz; unlicensed; $10,500 complete link; 
? 5-year hardware warranty; 1Gbps
   Pricing is attractive, isn't it (specially when customer's budget 
is very constrained)? But is Proxim a reliable company at this point?

   Thanks.

Mario

OK.Yeah I have installed one and it's working fine...  :-)

ButI have also replaced 2 troublesome links for another VAR and 
replaced them with Bridgewave.


Also...there was an issue with the GUI with Win XP if I remember correctly.

Just FYI.
