Thanks, I know the vega marketing says 7 kilometers, I've used them before at 4 kilometers with at 4REN, I agree the grandstreams are cheap and as someone pointed out not very good for line length, I planned to get my hands on one and test it at furthest location, the Versa dslams (which are re badged planet's) are running from a private reply I got run up to at least 3.5 miles with speeds averaging 16mpbs down and 1 up, so cheaper gear sounds ok, and my understanding of the dslams a child can enable it, its very user friendly and I've used both types of gateways before and both are easy 3 minute setups.
I dont envision huaweis or nokias being 3 step user friendly :) On 5/2/20, Tarko Tikan <ta...@lanparty.ee> wrote: > hey, > >> But this all results in a sh1te load of 48 port gateways (power is not >> a concern), but wondering if there is another solution that is more >> cost effective?
