Re: [Karlnet] best approach for a WISP start-up

["Bruno Lopes F. Cabral" <bruno@openline.com.br>]

Hi there

get one AP-1000 or WPBASE+ board from Karlnet, 
two orinoco cards (or any 100mw/200mW prismII cards) 
plus pigtails and Karlnet ISP BASE firmware. it will
be a bit less than US$1K for a two port base station

add a pair of 90-120-180 degree antennaes and 
choose the right location and your base will be all set

to customers, get RG1000/WPCPE+ plus Karlnet
SOHO, about US$500, plus directional antennae

US$4K will be 1 base and at least 4 clients,
6 if you research a bit more ;-)

Cheers
