A more reasonable comparison would be a trango unit vs a Canopy with Lens or 
Stinger

No question that Canopy stayed in the PtMP game longer, to go beyond the 10mb 
barrier, with advantage line and OFDM..

But to keep it real....  At a typical Trango Link Budget / Max distance, 
inserting a legacy Canopy w/ its inferior small antenna size and weaker link 
budget, Canopy would be lucky to get 5mbps, if it could even associate in our 
noise floor.  How quickly its forgotten, the Canopy 8db AP integ antenna, and 
Trango's 14db-18db AP integ antenna, gaining Trango the winning link budget, 
even after considering the C/I.  It brings back memories of the past...... The 
every day, CAnopy versus Trango thread :-)
