@Mambo, its difficult to suggest any help but I'll list these as a guideline :
a) What frequency and have you got a license for each radio AP
approved by freq allocation at CCK?
c) If you have a license, then you may as well import the unit
directly from many vendors and get type approvals done.
d) If you are intending to do this on ISM band, considering the power
levels, you still need to deal with CCK on this because such power
levels on the band are illegal and will cause jamming of other ISM
band APs, especially in urban areas.
e) Assuming that its on ISM, you are exposing your network to easy hacks.
f) Lower ISM band is not stable on such ranges, expect a huge drop in
throughputs.
Try and partner with ISPs or Network operators who have the
infrastructure and licensing in place. Why try to create your own
network when there are many official options in the market place?
HTHs.
