BTW, we have done a number of MT mesh deployments, it works fine as long as your understand the automagic that occurs and like that ;)

Just a suggestion. ----------------------------------------------------------- Dennis Burgess, Mikrotik Certified Trainer Link Technologies, Inc -- Mikrotik & WISP Support Services Office: 314-735-0270 Website: http://www.linktechs.net LIVE On-Line Mikrotik Training - Author of "Learn RouterOS" -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Barnes Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2010 12:15 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Mesh Have a small town 1500 homes that I would like some advice on supplying wireless to. I have a tower on the north end of town that I can't very well add many more antennas to due to contract with tower owner. The town is very wooded. I was considering putting up 4 small AP's in various areas of town to cover it to a point. Then the police dept got wind of it and wanted to add 2 of their towers. But not all have LOS to the main tower. Is this a good use of a mesh network and what are the important things to know about Mesh. I have lots of ideas but know knowledge on this. My AP's are all 100% Mikrotik but I have not heard any good about MT mesh and data on that is very slim. Help?
