Re: [IBWiFi] nanostation

 

I take it that you are VERY WELL versed in dealing with the various wifi
products.
I had a guy next to me ask for help on setting up his Nano.
I didn't think that it would be too big of a deal and I was able to access
the Nano and the various pages of setup parameters but, it soon became
obvious that it was going to be beyond my comprehension.
I contacted Ubnt for assistance and it never happened.
Apparently I need a remedial course in working with this kind of stuff and
as you indicated "too many hours to count" time must be scheduled when I
have nothing else to do, which never seems to happen.
The guy sent the Nano back to whomever he bought it.
It did appear to have a lot going for it, if one could just get it to work.
Apparently you did.
Congraduations.
