You would have to be far, far more specific in what areas they are "light-years ahead". Huawei are nothing approaching light-years ahead in the areas this programs is targeting, they're just cheaper. The primary complaint from small ISPs wasn't that Cisco or Arista or Calix or insert vendor don't have competing or even better products, it's that they are "too expensive".
- Dah00n 5y agoMaybe in a small deployment, yes, but in bigger deployments the price is not the main point. If you need a specific software fix pushed through quickly, good luck if you have US made equipment. Even when (if) you succeed it is often fixed by Chinese or other Asian coders anyway. It is insanity.
- tw04 5y agoSo you don't have a specific product set or even example bug to point to? I've never had an issue getting critical security fixes out of Cisco or Arista or Aruba, and given the fact you've completely ignored my question with more vague insinuations I'll assume you're making it up as you go. https://www.nrtoday.com/print_only/huawei-ban-threatens-wireless-service-in-rural-areas/article_377ad52e-7688-5662-ab1b-c851df901032.html https://www.nrtoday.com/print_only/huawei-ban-threatens-wire... https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/25/technology/huawei-rural-wireless-service.html https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/25/technology/huawei-rural-w... Etc. Not a mention of features or bug fixes. It's all about price.
