I agree. Other than some *cough*open source*cough*licensing issues*cough* I can see that there is lots that can be done with the Microtik.
Open source has nothing to do with it. Mikrotik does adhere to the open source licensing requirement. As for FCC certification, that is another story. I am not aware of anyone who has certified any system that includes a routerboard with a radio/antenna. BUT, the truth of the matter is that the FCC does not go after people who are not operating outside the legal EIRP limits. I am not going to argue the legality of using MT (or starOS) vs other certified systems. I am merely pointing out that Patrick's point regarding certified systems is valid.
What works with the Tranzeo CPQ clients?
Many things work with this product, including Mikrotik and StarOS.
Specifically? What do you use? or what do you see your clients using? What works? Before I go and spend my money on a product, any product, I ask around to see what works and what does not.
I am no longer an ISP. When I was, I used Mikrotik as an AP (several deployed), but I never used Tranzeo. I have several customers (some on this list) that use Mikrotik APs with Tranzeo CPE. I'd expect that you may hear from some of them in this thread as well. Either way, Mikrotik as an AP is a stable platform that offers a variety of options well beyond most of the "competition", and it does work with Tranzeo products.
