They cracked this nut years ago. Tried and proven technology. Too much $$$? Sonus systems offers a system. Also check out Polk, they now have in-wall speakers that take an IP input.
If you can do without the open source aspect of it, and embrace the world of capitalism, Colubris access controllers, and Airpath backend billing work very well together. The Colurbis even runs Linux.
Actually, the limit is 4 Watts EIRP for PtMP networks, with different rules allowing higher power for PtP links. Same rules apply to the upper 5Ghz spectrum.
And as far as 2.4ghz not being meant for WISPs? Don't try to tell www.alvarion.com or www.smartbridges.com or www.waverider.com or www.proxim.com or www.karlnet.com or www.raylink.com. All of these companies build very good products for WISPs running in the 2.4ghz spectrum. You are spouting FUD.
I find it hard to belive that something as powerful as that cannot be found. Have you run around town with an SA? If it is that hot, you may need some attenuation on the input of the SA. Just hard to belive you cannot find out who it is with so much at stake.
I would second that Waverider push. Also www.alvarion.com is supposed to have a 900mhz product out soon.
Forget what this guy said about isp-wireless though, the list is moderated by money grubbing nazis. The wisp@part-15.org list is much more active, and has actual information.
Are you using the Linksys client utility? Or the gay ass homosexual fucked up one that is inclued in XP? I have found the same thing with Cisco 340 and 350 cards under XP.
I have read the details on this setup. It was done with GPS guided parabolic dishes, and 5 Watt amps. Anything is possible with enough power, and big enough antennas.;-)
Sprint uses an MMDS network, running in LICENSED spectrum. This phased array runs 802.11b in 2.4Ghz unlicensed. I operate a 802.11b based fixed wireless ISP, and while fine for a small markets, it is NOT the answer in crowded urban centers. Or even large suburbs for that matter. Any Joe Sixpack with a Linksys WAP11, an omni, and a big amp could potentially take the network down. Since MMDS is LICENSED spectrum, you can face fines from the FCC for operating in those bands without the license. The equipment cannot be purchased at Circuit City, so it is less likely to be snooped like 802.11b, or interfered with or stolen. The amount of bandwidth available in the MMDS bands is also WAY more than 802.11b provides. I could go on and on about how 802.11b is NOT THE SOLUTION FOR WISPs, and how MMDS IS, but I will leave that for another day. Bottom line, MMDS fixed wireless is NOT outdated, 802.11b is.
I will agree with you there. I have a small (20") Toshiba flat screen, and I looked at the Wega next to it, for something like $100 more. I think the Toshiba looked better so I bought it.
If you only need two or four ports, grab a Cisco 2600 of 1750 off of ebay, throw in two of four FXO ports, and connect the FXO ports to the extension ports on your Lucent switch. Set up SIP on the IP phones in the "remote" office, and Bob's your uncle. Keep in mind that the Lucent Partner II requires switchhook action to transfer calls, and answer a second line. Using an IP phone might make that a bit difficult.

Altigen, Avaya, Nortel, and Mitel all make PBXes that run on Windows (and some on Linux as well)

12 year old kids running Kazaa are WAY more of a threat to ahem, overloaded core routers, than this screensaver.

Actually, you need to apologize to the Meat Puppets ;-p
You should check out http://www.awirelessgateway.com/
Just spoof your UserAgent string, and MS sites should load fine.

Mod parent up. This one with the balloon is for real, and yes, it already holds the record.

Too bad it comes from France.

If it were me, I would run cable.

Soyo is hardly a piece of "shitty hardware" MSI is decent, but far from the best overall manufacturer.
