Why not purchase the same cards that Karlnet bundles with their KN-50? All you
really need is a card with Agere chipset, right?

We are from Argentina.. we have to deal principaly with our factor of money
change ( u$s 1.00 = $ 3.00). After that we have to choose between an outdoor
Solution or a bad and poor performance solution with any equipment in
802.11b.
Thanks Karlnet we have 200 wireless client PCI + PCMCIA Orinoco + license
SC4700 for u$s 200,00 with all included... just the client completely
installed.. is no easy for us that cost, but the performance is good and is
the maximum that we can pay for a wireless kit...
Tsunami PtMP..? Canopy PtMP..? All of that is so far ago for our economic
possibilities.. If we can install Karlnet at u$s 200,00 ( remember that
means $600,00 for us) , so YOU CAN pay a wireless CPE of that vendors that
have more features.
BUT.. SC4700 has discontinued, in a bit time we will not find any Orinoco
PCMCIA Cards.. and what will we do..? KN50..? is expensive for us yet.. U$S
250,00 FOB and then I have to add around 20% to import them and then the
instalation cost... it is expensive yet...
I want to go on with karlnet, but the Orinoco Silver is discontinued and the
KN50 is expensive...
I think that Karlnet should drop the price of the KN50.
Have someone any idea where to find more PCMCIA Orinoco silvers ? pls..
contact offlist..
Bye
Roberto

KN50 isn't the right thing for long distance at that firmware I see!!!!!
It's good for short (and with PoE), and Lcaps from Wim Bos (Netherland)
I place fore the others...
PS:
What about Karlnet?
I placed an order for KN50 two month ago and ...nothing!!!
....YDI?

We just installed 13 TC base units! The hell we are going to drop them
altogether. Plus, we have been having a good experience with the
product for the most part.
For higher quality links we go right to Aperto PTMP. Also with good
success and good performance.
Then a customer can purchase Tsunami PTMP from us if they need more
bandwidth than that.
We have also used Motorolla 5.8GHz canopy, but I don't have much
experience with that.
I really think it's a good solution spectrum for small home office to
some of the largest MT businesses.
What I am really looking for is a product with reliability and a 5 mile
range, that cost's as much as an ADSL bridge. More for Resi. We have
DSL too, but with the quality of copper in 40% of the market, people are
often left desiring more bandwidth, and stuck with their performance
based on their distance from the DSLAM.
I think they (Karlnet) would do well to continue to sell the KN-50
board. Especially if it can support higher powered cards.
Or, hint hint, drop the price on the KN-100/105 boards to the price of a
KN-50 with software.
They have to go down in price sometime.. right?

Yeah right! I'm reminded of the DEC/Compaq merger... the CPQ/HP
merger...
Uh huh. Find a solution now, guys. For if you don't, you'll have some
pissed off "not-yet-installed" customers when they decide to no longer
make
whatever product or software it is you've been using.

I believe karlnet stated that the merger would not impact pricing or
products
