RogueSix Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 So I got in touch with an Alfa dealer up here in Canada to find out about getting my hands on some AP51s. The dealer told me that the AP51 has been discontinued. Any idea what the deal is? If this is true It's going to be hard to get any hardware to make your own pineapples, and maybe it will eventually become hard to get actual pineapples?

Mr-Protocol Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) I have a distributor in the states that just got them in stock, and they are getting the PCB only which will be like 25% cheaper as well. keep in mind the AP51 hardware is the SAME as the iMesh51 Edited November 29, 2011 by Mr-Protocol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr-Protocol Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 As far as I know. Data-Alliance still has a decent stock of AP51 and AP51 PCB. Search for my "Where to purchase" thread and it should pop up. Damn wifi chipset discontinued :( They are making this tough on us lol.

barry99705 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Any ideas on what you would base it on which wouldn't be discontinued in the next 6 months? I've heard from two different sources pineapple v4 is going to rock. Just don't know what hardware they are using... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 What happened to Mk3? Jeeze the thing came out only a short while ago, who's talking about V4 already? Beats me. Sounds like some idiots over at Hak5 underestimated demand and built a product on an end of life chip. Noobs. ...oh :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 It's ok Darren, we cannot predict how companies act. If we could I'd say lets get in the stock market ;) lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostshell Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I have been in touch with Alfa, and have working on a deal directly with them. Due to environmental factors some parts and items may be limited for them. I have made a deal with Alfa directly and will be receiving 100 AP51's or a mix of AP51's and iMesh51's, i will be selling them just slightly over cost once the deal has been finalized and the routers are received.

Mr-Protocol Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I think it's still a dev/prototype board, not the final production model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 It is definitively not the final model. There is much to come. Best, Sebkinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
