[Voyage-linux] A Cheaper Motherboard

[Solomon Asare]

Hi,
I use lots of mikrotik products myself and they are
excellent if all you need is a wireless/router without
any special/unique customisation that you may want to
roll out yourself. And the 112 is competitively
priced.

A licence upgrade, if required, after expiration of
the one your 112 board came with, will set you back by
about $40 at a latter date.

Moreover, my competitors are also using Mikrotik or
cheaper alternatives and I was wondering if, with a
cheaper mboard + flash + memory and voyage, I can put
together a radio more competitively. I am almost at
the point where I may have to give the radio out and
make money on monthly bandwidth charges which are not
much.

Regards,
solomon.
