Grand haven is so small, one wi-fi router would cover it

And it probably does

I agree, probably a cheap router and a simple omnidirectional antenna.

LOL!!!

Theres a few cities around Ohio that are that big that are considered Cities now.

But all you need is to put the antenna on a water tower the city owns and you got it set :p

While it is technically possible to use one of those cheap AP, only a limited number of users will be admitted. Typically cheap APs from Linksys, D-Link etc. can only accomodate 32 or so users at the same time. That is why enterprise/wisp grade access points are more expensive while seemingly offering the exact same service.

True.

They could have had some different software in the product. The DLink enterprise routers only allow 52 on it at a time i think.

Its hard telling what they use actually without going and finding out.
