Travis,

The 200 remotes is a "Wow" number we are working towards.  There is no
guarantee, but you set goals and try.  Of course the bandwidth you promise
customers and your RF link quality are the leading factors in numbers of
remote stations you can hook up.  So if you have 5 Mbps throughput and
everyone you sign up wants 1Mbps then the total number of customers can be
5.  If you sign everyone up at 128k then 39 is the limit.  If your RF link
is poor then the throughput goes down from retransmissions and the number of
simultaneous connections is lower.  So this is something to keep in mind as
we add more connections to the software.
