One story this week, and it's a big one. Cambium Networks Limited filed a Notice of Intention to appoint an administrator on 10 September, and the Nasdaq delisting appeal is finished. Drew walks through what's actually documented, how a company built out of Motorola Canopy and Orthogon ended up here, and what it means for anyone with Cambium gear in the air right now.

There's a history lesson in here about GPS sync and grid dishes, a hard look at where the point-to-multipoint bench got so thin, and a practical pass through the alternatives -- plus the one question Drew thinks you should be asking every vendor you talk to from now on.

Cambium files a Notice of Intention to appoint an administrator, and the Nasdaq appeal ends. From Motorola Canopy and Orthogon to Cambium: how the crown jewel aged out. Where to go Monday morning on CBRS, point-to-point, sixty gigahertz and enterprise Wi-Fi.

Everything in this episode, in full:

• Cambium's radios will outlive the company: The last great thing they can do is open up the hardware & software.

This week is about the parts of a deployment nobody puts on the datasheet. A license plate camera that reads perfectly all day and quits the moment infrared kicks in. Six seconds of a launch video that say more about a vendor's strategy than the product being launched. And the credential you need before a spectrum analyzer is allowed past the gate of a refinery.

Three stories, all from the same idea: the radio is rarely the hard part anymore. The hard part is the power budget, the permission slip, and whether anyone at the vendor picks up the phone when you ask for a feature.

Ubiquiti now pushes unknown license plates via API, and a lesson about PoE Plus that only shows up after dark. Ubiquiti's whole-home mesh pack, the MLO backhaul, and the six seconds aimed at managed service providers. What it actually takes to run a wireless site survey inside a refinery, from the TWIC card to badging out.

Everything in this episode, in full:

• Ubiquiti Put MLO Backhaul in a Home Mesh Pack. The Radios Are the Cheap Part Now
• Before You Survey a Refinery, You Need a TWIC Card and a Cotton Undershirt
• I tried the Ubiquiti LPR cameras & they quickly proved how the hardware, and the people, stepped up! All LPR now via API!

A week that starts with three job openings that never got posted and ends in a Houston convention hall where the industry quietly admitted the build isn't the hard part anymore. Drew walks through what happens when you hand a hiring plan to a bot named after a president, and what happens when two thousand creators all hit upload in the same ballroom.

Then two takes on the Broadband Communities Summit, before and after: the agenda that celebrates raising the money while skipping the affordability gap, and the two days in Houston that made the case for connectivity, devices, education and workforce development as four legs of the same stool.

The three staffers Drew didn't hire, and what that says about your job. Social Fest 2026 and why two thousand phones uploading is a capacity problem, not a coverage problem. What's missing from the Broadband Communities Summit agenda: affordability, spectrum, and LEO. Two days in Houston: the second digital divide, the long tail nobody funds, and Pharr's 13,100 subscribers.

Everything in this episode, in full:

• Two thousand people uploading at once is a capacity problem, not a coverage problem
• My Outlook for Broadband Communities Summit 2026: Is the Industry Looking Further Than the Build?
• The three staffers I didn't hire, and what that says about your job
• Broadband in the Rearview Mirror, Connectivity and Opportunity On the Horizon
