Agreed as well, I wasn't trying to say that the Apex wasn't as good as the MT. My point was that at some point different backhauls have their issues and I wasn't trying to say that they are better or worse, just that a $10k link from them doesn't necessarily mean more stability.

But, I share Chuck's praise for MT. WISPs have been running reliable backbones on unlicenced spectrum and MT successfully for years. The new MT hardware and Firmwares are really nice and plenty reliable. For any link 50mbps or less, I'd select an Unlicensed solution without hesitation. Specifically, MT w/ WDS and NStreme will do 30mbps HDX on a 20Mhz channel easilly. As well, if you use the latest N class mPCI, you can set it up with a Dual Pol panel. I personally do not like Mimo configs much, but I like using N cards for manual on-the-fly polarity change/selection. I prefer the MT over the Ubiquiti, because the MT can do channel scans now, and thats important to be able to quickly identify free channels if Interference is ever received. But I really like the Ubiquiti antennas, that make DP inexpensive. I personally prefer Tlink-45s, which are a great radio, because they are a ready to go solution. But off-promo MT can save you a few dollars.
