As for the bold statement, I am not sure what is looked for here other than we are firmly committed to continuing to grow in the WISP space and I think our product development will prove that out. We have recently released AF products, AirMax products, new routers and switches, made significant enhancements to our free UNMS, etc..More cool stuff to come designed to grow the WISP business and provide tools and products that are needed in the industry.
There were actually quite a few requests for this. Many customers wanted to purchase singles or 2-pack and did not want distributors breaking up a 5-pack and then having goods arrived damaged as they were not setup for shipping that way. Anyway, the point has been made and 5-pack brought back. This decision shouldn't have been made in the first place.
