SR2 AP:

SR2 - 100
532a - 160
enclosure - 30
POE - 25
Ethernet passthru - $7
Pigtail - $15
Jumper - $10
Antenna - omni - $35

Total - About $400.  

BUT you've got PPPOE / VPN / Routing / everything else built right into
the AP.  Radius server / client now too... filtering... queueing...
QOS...

If you're losing them due to storms, it's either weatherproofing trouble
on your part or grounding problem (again your part)...

I've not lost an MT AP or CPE in a long time due to a storm - previous
ones were weatherproofing lessons...

I disagree with that.

I can get a nice Teletronics AP for about $220.  My last MT solution ran

closer to $500.

I tried MT (lost one of two out there in the first big storm we got)
because 
I was going to try a solution that would do routing at the ap.  Glad I 
didn't go that route!  I'd still be working to get customers back
online.

It was sure nice to have all of the test modes that the MT has though. 
Pretty cool stuff.
