Ryan,
Why not stick with Tranzeo or one of the other legal (FCC-
certified) brands?
Are you trying to troll? :) I am using all Tranzeo gear now. I am
also looking for other options. I have 2 6500 series radios up at
this site. They are currently sucking wind with 30 clients each.
I ask about the Mikrotik/Star-OS stuff as it appears that there is
nothing illegal about them.
I find this analogous to my father in law building a kit Cobra in his
barn. As long as all the parts fit together in a compatible and non-
dangerous way then they are considered safe and licensable by the
local DMV.
There's no need to go the illegal route and that includes even
price these days. Plus, with a legal product you'll get the benefit
of support and a warranty.
Even with support and a warranty I find myself hesitant to add
additional clients to this setup. I see others on this list using
these other products with decent support from the community and it
seems, reasonable results.
I like the Alvarion stuff, I really do. But I have seen entire
countys/states get messed over by buying a proprietary system and
then the system creator suddenly goes under or "pulls a Motorola" and
forces a multi-million dollar upgrade. I tend to shy away from
proprietary equipment unless it is able to use standardized protocols
(like Cisco's EIGRP vs IGRP routing. You use the Enhanced if you use
all Cisco, but plain non-enhanced compatible with any other router if
you don't want the wiz-bang stuff.)
Now. I ask again the last question: What works with the Tranzeo CPQ
clients? Do you know? ! :)

Subject: [WISPA] StarOS or Microtik with TRCPQ clients...
Sorry for the cross post.
I am looking at replacing my array of TR6500s with something that can
handle more than 30 concurrent users in a graceful manner.
I have been looking at the Microtik line of products with an SR2
400mW Atheros radio in it.
I know Matt Larsen uses StarOS with Lucent Cards....
Does anyone have any input as to what direction to go?
What works with the Tranzeo CPQ clients?
Thanks!
ryan
