BasicInternet:Mikrotik devices

= Selection of Mikrotik devices = Comparing the RB1100AHx2 and the RB960PGS-PB (by Iñaki May2017). Aspects to consider
 * power consumption
 * the amount of traffic/users we want to cover on a specific area and
 * costs, considering CAPEX and OPEX.
 * I'm not considering whether the equipment needs to be indoor or outdoor.

When considering the amount of traffic/users, RB1100AHx2 model is the winner.
 * First, because of the license level, which in this case is 6 (the highest one) compared to license level 4 in case of RB960PGS-PB. In the following page there is a table comparing different license numbers: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/index.php?title=Manual:License#License_Levels
 * Second, because of the hardware capacity. RB1100AHx2 model is able to handle between 2 to 4 times more traffic than the RB960PGS-PB.
 * If we are thinking on a installation where the idea is to place a server with content such as videos... then I would go for a RB1100AHx2, otherwise the RB960PGS-PB is a good option.
 * Regarding the power consumption and outdoor enclosure the RB960PGS-PB (max 9W) model is more convenient than RB1100AHx2 (max. does not specify but have to be quite high due to the fans).
 * If the main driver is the energy consumption and/or cost, then definitely RB960PGS-PB model is the winner.
