Trango does make a good product. I still have 2 Sunstream AP's in use.
They are like Timex watches.
I'm using Star War boards. A little bit more than the trango s. The 2
card boards in a 5 gig rootenna let me use the 2nd card for an omni.
Speeds are about 20+ megs or so and I cloak down to 5MHz and 10MHz
channel sizes.
One of the things I've been doing is slapping up repeaters all over the
place. Cheap as hell, about 400.00 or so.
Lately I've ran lmr400 into some of my customers attics and installed an
omni for their home wifi. We tend to service our customers right to the
pc and it's a lot better router than a linksys. And I have happier
customers and I'm happier.
The 2 port and the 4 port both have dual ethernet as well.
Pretty versatile product. Lonnie has come along way with the new war
platform.

That's on quantity 30.... $149 each. 5.8ghz, dual polarity, up to 3
miles (add $40 for a dish and it goes up to 13 miles) and delivers up to
10Mbps. Hard to beat! And with SmartPolling on the AP, you can get
hundreds of customers per sector.

If it's pretty absent of trees you might look at 5.8. Trango has
that cpe for $150. Not going to find any propriety gear cheaper.

I have been planning my WISP for about a year, and have yet to begin
delivery of bandwidth to customers. My choice for service delivery
was 802.11b, but with increased competition from other services
nearby (about 5 miles away) I am wondering how to avoid problems. I
have a 50' tower, and it is ROHN 45g. My choice for antennas would
be 4 90 degree horizontal antennas. I have looked at bandwidth and
shopped it to death. My best price is $400 from Lime Light. And
I've built a couple of servers, acquired some switches and a
router. The Router is a Cisco 1750.
My questions:
What CPE's and AP's would work best in this environment? I want to
keep interferance to a minimum, as well as control costs. My
environment includes lots of desert, and single story buildings.
