I was thinking the same thing... I want to be business class and go the cheap-o route. By a Yugo, get Yugo quality...especially if you think 50 business customers on a single ap is going to work well in an urban area with UBNT.

I dont want headaches Unfortunately I do not knowingly buy Motorola brand products for personal reasons. I do want to stick to ubnt brand products but I dont know exactly how many NanoBridge M5's I could connect to a single one, so I dont want to have to end up with the entire roof covered with antenna's. The 50mbit I could offer internally with ethernet or vdsl would be great if it was symmetrical (vdsl), I want to be able to do this, just trying to figure out how much I'd sell 50/50.
