We have one installed as a free hotspot for now while we test. As a hotspot
it is working great. The issue I have with the units is from what I see they
MUST "call home" to get configuration and will not allow data or clients to
pass until it does. Also I believe they are using some sort of tunnel, I can
tracert from one to a public site, but if I try to ping one of my AP in my
network or SSH into one it fails.
I think these would be great if we could install the control software on one
of our servers, but I don't want any of my clients internet connections to
be controlled by a 3rd party, or not have access because the Meraki site is
either not available or running slow as it seemed to be last Friday.

The Meraki nodes are configured through the central web dashboard. All
payments go through Meraki, and they get their cut (I'm not sure what that
is). The access controls are just lists of MAC addresses to be allowed or
bypass the captive portal. There's no support for RADIUS.
You *could* extend a Mikrotik hotspot with Meraki, though.

OK, but can we as wisps use the meraki units on our own ?
i.e. can we use it to extend mikrotik hotspots out through a mesh of
merakii (hah!)
or, do we have to pay Meraki to use their hotspot stuff ?
