@sirhc, If you want to sell a lot of switches in Scandinavia, do something serious. Make sure Winther has on stock, and don't let them wait 2 months. Also make a deal with AVD.
I'm sure you could double or triple the sale.
If you don't care to sell more. Just leave them as it is....
Just my five cents...

I am not sure what Winther is saying but the hold up is not us.
We ship orders usually 1-3 business days from payment.

Their last few orders:

Order # 145004327
Placed 11/7/2017
Payment 11/28/2017 - 15 business days from order until payment
Shipped 12/4/2017 - 5 business days until shipped which was our fault I think we were really backed up

Order # 145004132
Placed 10/2/2017
Payment 10/30/2017 - 20 business days from order until payment
Shipped 10/30/2017 - shipped same day

Order # 145003684
Placed 7/17/2017
Payment 07/31/2017 - 11 business days from order until payment
Shipped 8/1/2017 - 1 business days until shipped

If AVD wants to become a Distributor the process is pretty simple.
They can apply and become a Distributor the same day.
They can place their order the same day.
Wire the payment and the order would ship in 1 to 3 business days (Usually the same day unless a LARGE order)

For instance Streakwave normally places $100K to $300K orders which take 3+ business days to pull, scan, and palletize to ship depending on our stock levels and number of orders in the que.

I do not remember I think they [AVD] wanted Terms or something which we do no not offer.
All Distributors must pay for orders prior to shipment.

I appreciate your suggestions but I can not make a Distributor stock our switches which is why we offer (subsidize) international shipping. It usually does not cost any more and most times LESS to ship from our warehouse to anywhere in the world internationally than it costs to ship ground from our warehouse on east coast to California on the west coast. Not much more I can do than I am to make it no more expensive for you to buy direct than our customers in the USA by subsidizing the DHL Express shipping.

Ok, 3 AP's powered by 48V is definately not working. AP's are behaving strange. Had to move clients back to old AP and shut down one of the APs powered by the WS-6-MINI.
Seems that 2 APs are working fine with clients connected.

I'm very impressed with the 5AC-90-HD sector antenna from UBNT. I have much better signal from that, than from 2 single 120 degrees sectors with RF Armor. It should be a 90 degrees antenna, but definately works more like a 160 degree.....

Well the 5AC-90-HD is 3 x 30 degree antennas so of course your signal from a very narrow 30 degree beam will be better than a wide 120 degree antenna even if it has RF Armor on it, not really a fair comparison there.

But sometimes you do not want to use 12 sectors to get 360 degree coverage or even 6 to get 180 degrees.

The 5AC-90-HD is great for places where you have a high density of customers.

jjonsson can you post up a screen grab of your WS-10 Status TAB

If the Port Description does not express what is each port then tell me what radios on each port

Jens;

Seems like you're running into ohm's law with the prisms, sorry to say. Should be fine on a VH port. Max power consumption on gen2 prisms is listed on datasheet as 9.5w, BUT as it is a 24v device you run into conversion losses.. Each only draws 9.5w out of the 6-mini's port, but the 6-mini probably draws 10+ watts from the 10-250 in order to put out the 9.5 required watts to the radio.

Since you're working with a 36w total power OUT of the 10-250, 3 prisms isn't going to work so well on the 6-mini until you power it using a VH port, hate to say it. You factor in cable losses, I'm not surprised you didn't quite have enough power.
