With the new 5.3 requirements coming in effect this month, I doubt any of the companies mentioned are Fcc Certified...

You also need 5.3Ghz or 5.4Ghz solution. Thats why we still are spending time with OEM gear like ADI, Mikrotik, StarOS, Deliberant, and similar certified gear. Its for 5.3Ghz. Trango and Alvarion have been great for our Super Cells and 5.8Ghz.

Others would up and down speed, affecting overall performance while Trango is going to be either working or dropping packets (which only affects one customer, with ARQ off). I am close to picking Trango but since Trango is discontinuing 5.3 due to DFS requirements, now I'm starting to wonder if 5.7-5.8 is enough. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Tom DeReggi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: WISPA General List <[email protected]> Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2007 19:16:55 -0400 >>But can systems like Mikrotik for >>QOS adequately pack the packets over the wireless > >Good Question, that I do not have the answer to. > I had thought that there was some trade off in latency doing the packet >combining on slow processor boards. >One of the big reasons, I have been an advocate for higher processor >400-533Mhz boards. > >The Trangos have a higher PPS count than you might think.
