Re: Next level - licenced backhauls I am still on the decision process, and also have to look at licensing costs. Have in mind that i don't run a network like carriers and don't have their budget, I don't need TDM, or other cellular networking goodies. IP is all that i need and cost is important. Doing some research about cost of licensing and links i started to loose ambition and I might end up using unlicensed canopy or alvarion.
luful, I'm not talking about carriers here that you mentioned. I know what they use and you forgot to mention NERA. I was talking about WISP networks which i know and what they use. You are very well informed of everything and you know how to use google too . Thanks for the info but i can't call or knock on any ones (dr.prof's)door and bother them with my question (which i can find answers with a little effort) without having any prior relation with them. I also wouldn't think it is good exposing someones name here without their permission. |

 | If it is IP only I would roll with Dragonwave as they are very inexpensive and perform well from what I am told. Also in my own research/design I've found NERA to be very affordable too.
The main thing that causes people to shy away from licensed links as you have found, is the licensing fees.
If you really want to look into the suppliers, give them a call or email them and have them run a single path for you so you can get a BOM put together and get an idea of what the entire link costs. -- "No job is so important, and no service is so urgent that we cannot take the time to perform our work safely." -- AT&T, Your World, Destroyed. --Safety One Tower Rescue Certified --LLigetfa:"Wimax is like teenage sex.

I do not know about Serbia, but this is not a big issue in many Eastern European countries, and of course Asia and Africa.
Use a competent EMC contractor to do a full spectrum survey before choosing frequency - regulators in some countries so inept (or corrupt) that they have assign conflicting frequencies to neighbouring rooftops! |

I get it - you know local WISPs are using SAF or NERA, so you want to choose one of them. I already commented on SAF (your first choice) so let's check NERA's own words to their investors: we have quite small 3% market share and we have been laying off people. So pick SAF since it was your first choice.  |
