Hi All, I found this online and "naturally" it is weighted heavily in Cisco's favour. The thing is that I also heard Cisco's competitive comment against motorola is that we use Aetheros chipsets that are not enterprise grade - I heard this from a Motorola partner! I would normally fight this information with, third party bake-off information, or Gartner Magic Quadrant. Any other input welcome, perhaps not the right forum to do this, so I may also post to Angelo Lamme's Linked-In wireless group. Cheers Steve Vye

Sorry Juan Antonio, I forgot to add the link, but I was referring to exactly the same document that you added the hyperlink for.

Juan Antonio Regarding the link you sent showing the Cisco report and video (Response_to_Cisco_WLAN_Youtube_Test_v2.doc) This is from March 2010, and Motorola Marketing has already posted a response to that. Look at this: http://devcentral.motorola.com/view/21178/view.aspx and http://compass.mot.com/doc/344871463/Response_to_Cisco_WLAN_Youtube_Test... http://compass.mot.com/doc/352239547/Wireless_Summit_Competitive_Update_... Stephen Can you provide the link you mention on your post? Competitive info is usually available at: http://compass.mot-solutions.com/go/266689070 If you found something new, maybe it would be good to check with Rajiv Iyer, and post the results here later to help other TAs.

Obrigado, Alex! After reading the doc, there is something which puzzles me even more. Why is Cisco  publicly posting this document, while our debunking one is Confidential ??? Besides, there's much more to say about. For instance, why are they saying they used an RFS6000 with an AP7131? Was AP used in Adaptive mode with dependent WLAN through a Cisco ethernet switch? Or was AP7131 used as "legacy" AP, in which case RFS6000 purpose was simply decorative?

Is this my browser or there is no document? Anyway, take a look at this other one from very Cisco. Formerly they were more elegant when deceiving. Now they are just like Intermec or Albarion.
