Hi Matt,

Yes airBridge will connect to any AP. This is a true client - not like the
AP-Client mode. In the AP-Client mode there are certain operational
restrictions.

We have spent a lot of engineering resources on the radio design to achieve
clean Tx spectra, High Rx sensitivity, Good RF shield, Good PA etc etc. In
addition, each unit is tuned in the production line to supress side lobs
performance and the like.

In addition, the built-in PoE capability provides the flexibility in
locating the device on the window sill.

The net effect of all this a great radio to use as the WISP CPE.

Uh, no.. ElectroComm NEVER charges the suggested retail pricing.  I've
always received "reseller/dealer" pricing.

Looks like, maybe Nimesh can confirm?

Marketed to connect to any AP.

Have you seen how dirty this "hack" is?

SmartBridges paid an extra $5 for a good PA, *shrug*
