<div dir="ltr"><div>Hey Mitch,<br><br></div><div>We have two sets of Ubiquity Bullet Titanium radios in service in the NCSN. One set is a link of 2 pairs of 5.8GHz radios running at 10MHz Bw in the Parkfield area. They've been there now for at least a year and have worked pretty reliably. The other pair with the same specs is on a link from Menlo Park across the Bay to Newark, and it's been on for over a year. Haven't used the Nano's at all.<br>
<br></div><div>For the price, you can't beat them. I'm still not sold on the product though, and it's hard to describe why. We've never had a very warm fuzzy feeling about them for some reason. We did have 2 of the first 8 we purchased need to be factory reset several times to get them working which doesn't help. We've also learned that when one hiccups, its mate loses sync and both have to be reset to make the link come back alive. That also happened to us in the first 2 months of deployment which didn't help, but it hasn't happened since. We've since learned that--supposedly--if both radios have access to an NTP server, they may not both have to be power cycled. The software is decent, which actually isn't bad also considering the price.<br>
<br></div><div>The jury is still out for us. They are certainly a cheap solution, but so far we don't have plans to install anymore of them unless we absolutely cannot afford any of the much nicer ISM-band radios for data collection.<br>

Hi Mitch<br>
<br>
Long time no talk, good to hear from you.<br>
<br>
I just used a couple of those for a high throughput need, they were not<br>
too far apart about 800 Feet and they have been working great form me, I<br>
haven't lost data and we are talking about 5 Mbps.<br>
Easy to assemble, almost plug and play, it has some LED's on the<br>
antennae showing you the signal strength, price is good<br>

Does anyone have experience, good or bad, with the Ubiquiti Networks<br>
Nanobridge radios. We just got a pair for testing but I was wondering how<br>
rugged and reliable they are.<br>
