Ok heres what I have currently...12 Motorola Starpoint systems complete with Microwave dishes, 8 tower sites, 10 5.8GHz WiFi radios and all hardware....Ok the ISP would come in at a central location (Downtown) and ontop of a building...this would be site #1...The Starpoint systems would "shoot" the signals to lets say site #2 where another WiFi radio is located to pick up where #1 drops out...Now This goes on throughout the 8 sites around town...My question would be this...Would it be better to go Omin-directional or Sectorized like a cellular system??..To me Omni would be more wide spread but sectorized would be more controllable...Also the sites are roughly 5-15 miles apart...

There really is so much more that needs to be known. How much power, tower heights, directions of towers, how much bandwidth................that's a start
