If we're to take some of what's been published literally, all "wisp equipment" providers are going to be required to be CALEA "compliant".
This is going to lead to some serious compatibility and interoperability issues, if you ask me. HOW equipment maker A, B, and C accomplish stuff is likely going to be different. Thus, a network with mixed equipment may turn out to be almost impossible to put together completely. What about all of us who buy stuff from outside the US? What about the people who have large networks with now out of production equipment? Will "CELEA COMPLIANT" stickers now be required to get into the WISP business? I don't see anyone addressing this. Nor do I see anyone addressing community and free networks. While WISPA is definitely a WISP association, we're dead in the water if the WISP equipment providers dry up or go away, or we become stuck with one or two equipment providers, and all the "compliant" stuff is 50% more in price... -- WISPA Wireless List: [email protected] Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/
