this is an excellent product

We use this product for a wireless ISP. It is excellent. It has many features and can fill virtually any need. The manageability is excellent. The number of protocols and functionalities supported are far more than this article indicates. This article is extremely shallow. You can go to the web site of MicroTik and get the documentation which is an 800 page PDF file with many excellent examples (not just a commandline reference). This article was way too shallow for an excellent product. Sure you could do this with Linux directly but it would take a huge amount of time to configure the kernel and everything else to cover all of these functions. It costs like 75 bucks for the level 4 license which is all that is needed for most cases. The only price they mention in the article was $300. That is for the controller version which most people don't need. I think I will write an article about this product. This one was so shallow it was almost worthless.
