Here's a clear-eyed look at the five wireless network myths we encounter most often in conversations with IT directors, CIOs, and municipal administrators — and what the engineering actually shows.

The difference between carrier-grade infrastructure and 'good enough' infrastructure isn't visible at installation. It shows up at year two — when the first real stress event hits.

Most outdoor wireless network failures aren't caused by bad equipment. They're caused by bad decisions.

In wireless infrastructure, the installation builds the network but the closeout package preserves the network.

A wireless network performs only as well as it is installed, aligned, tuned, and validated.
