- aha... the old interbridge story again...
- I recommend that you stay away from it as far as you can. The junk is
- totally troublesome.
-
- I had 20 of these Interbridges before and I am happy to say that I got
- rid of it last year. I replaced them with FastPath4+ which I got for
- $500 a piece.
-
- I recommend that you stay away from it. Replace it with a much mroe
- reliable stuff (gatorbox, FastPath etc) You wont regret it.
-
- Hayes Support was bad and I personally think that they are not doing
- anything to the bridge or its software. I was told by the engineer a
- long time ago that they are not planning to do anything new to it.
-
-
- Just another unsatisfy customer of Hayes.
