They are probably using NAT on a router, and that is the internal side
address.  The external would be on the Backhaul side facing the internet,
and that is where your routable IP address would exist.  It's quite common
to see this type of NAT setup on small LAN's, including those of the
Wireless variety!!

Naw...

"And, with Canopy's small cells, there is no need for coordination, so
a single-site Canopy system can begin serving a surrounding two-mile
community right away."

That sounds like it's not mesh, at least not all the way to the house.
Maybe the "cell sites" mesh, but I can't discern it from that.

On the "do they get it" front, though, I can tell you one thing:

The default IP address of the 'backhaul' radio is 169.254.1.1

Someone doesn't understand the Internet, maybe?
