Powerful, fast and reliable. In this order.

These devices are just amazing. I'm currently using them in several applications - one of which provides Wi-Fi coverage at my aunt's cabin about 1.3 miles away with almost line of sight (shaded only by very light vegetation on either side). We downloaded over 94 Mbit/s from the internet in her cabin. In this case we use one of these devices on both ends. Using their MaxStream TDMA technology gave us almost identical speeds but seemed to offer much better latency and it took a lot less time for speeds to hit full speed. Another use that was pretty cool was at my friend's house - about 100 yards through a row of tall, dense fruit trees and into a log cabin at the other end. I figured I would need another receiver at the end of the log cabin for reception and then a separate indoor hotspot. No - the CPE510 just broke through the trees and wall of the cabin, and the devices in this log cabin are receiving a full 60Mbps home internet connection. The admin interface is fine - not particularly bad or good. But it does everything I need, including speed tests. Setup was easy but can be tricky if you're unfamiliar with networking in general.
