Would also like to know if they considered cost/node to install and cost/node/mo to maintain ?? These are key for us in the Service Provider business and will also be for the Munipality as these networks grow and they need to step in and support their providers as they expand or upgrade their network to deal with real world use. In short anyone can deploy a Node/AP every 500 feet or so and include a Gateway every 3rd Node/AP and get great performance. Just love it when vendors say that the best networks are the ones with the most Nodes/Sq Mile-What great spin.

These performance tests were run when the network was not optimal. We are anticipating some new network optimization efforts in the next few months that will dramatically enhance the performance of the network. This network was designed and Implemented by Hewlett-Packard Mobility, Voice and Network Solutions Organization (MVNSO). Just a note about the St. Cloud, FL Network.
