Switch to Canopy. Best thing we ever did for our network. Unfortunately we
still have a segment which we have to put up with KN on. But it is
switching to Canopy in the next two weeks too!!

Subject: [Karlnet] YDI killing Karlnet
Well, it has happened.
On 7/2/04, I attempted to order an HF-600 and an XN-700 from Karlnet
via Winncom Technologies. Last week, not yet having received the order,
I called Winncom and asked about it. Today, via email I received this
from Winncom:
... I just received word back from my purchasing manager that the items
you have ordered had been discontinued by Karlnet....
I did not want to believe it, so I called Winncom and confirmed it.
I then called Karlnet directly and was informed that all the flashrom
hardware has been dropped.
What next? Will they drop the KN-50/105/205? Without the flashrom
units how are we to deploy high traffic towers? With the KN-205? It
doesn't have the CPU power we need or the ability to support 3 radio
interfaces.....
They 'obviously' don't want us to deploy new towers. This doesn't make a
lot of sense..... If I can't build karlnet towers, why would I buy
karlnet CPE's?
YDI's true colors are now showing.
However, if you use Karlnet products, and you don't wish to have to
start over on your network, we might all try e-mailing Karlnet and
asking that they change this decision. I suggest we send our comments
to Karlnet Support. Perhaps enough reaction by us will make a difference.
Or maybe, someone has an appropriate address at YDI for us to send mail
to.....
