Regarding your mention of the School system-
The Schools are getting big in this E-Rate stuff. Entire states are asking for
proposals for full managed services, probably both because they can get rid of
people and take advantage of the E-Rate. I’ve seen one State’s RFP and it is so
full of things that I don’t even know are possible yet…
Unless we can play in the E-Rate space, we will have more and more limited
usefulness as a provider to Schools and Libraries, I’m afraid.

I want to first go on record as saying I to dislike the idea of a cloud based
management tool.
However, I also remember all of us bitching about AC being a Java app and not
having a web UI for our phones and other devices. When Ben Moore said that we
would not have to worry about that in the next version I kind of thought about
a hosted solution, but thought “Oh surly not”.
Another point that I want to make is that US WISPs are not their largest
market. I am sure that it is a large market for them but not the largest. I
expect they are trying to be uniform across all their platforms worldwide. I
assume we will see Unifi and Mfi eventually go ALL Cloud based. Everything from
AP, CPE, Router, WiFi, Lights, Phones, Cameras, and even thermostat controlled
from the cloud.
The hacking possibility of all this is huge. But everything I see is moving
this way. The local school Corp in our area just released 2 techs and
converted ever thing they could to virtual off-site with remote monitoring and
control of all equipment from WiFi Aps and Net Switches to Servers and
workstations. The IT Manager says he loves the reduced work load but sees now
he has handed the keys to someone else and has a lot less control. All he does
now is move wires and swap equipment.
All the NEST products, personal IP Security Cameras all are already in the
cloud. The general techy populous are starting to except it. I think lots of
WISPs will be less likely since they feel less in control of their networks and
we are all about control. But I don’t think we are going to stop this trend.

Well right. That's why I said few and not none.

It was in alpha for 7-8 months before it hit the "public" beta today.

Ok, but when the device contacts the cloud why can't the cloud at that point
start the update? I'm not really familiar with the product but what is the
frequency of the cloud to ground discharge ( or the other way around )...

Kinda hard to point to a bunch of wavy hand WISPs about the size of your
management adoption for the investors, but nuts dead simple if they are
on your cloud system... And if the FCC changes the rules.... Guess
what can be forced to update for compliance with or without your say so...
Hmmmmm

Why would I waste public ips on my radios, so ubnt can have control of my

But it's CLOUD.
