Re: [WISPA] CPE - who buys it?
Tom, Your reply is the the info I was looking for. Thanks for your reply. I do believe you are correct but I'll double-check with my county and CPA. I've moved so many times around the country that I cant keep up! Just a note, we have been paying our property taxes by default because of our lessor passes it on to us. The reason I'm inquiring is in preparation for when our lease is paid off (early next year). With that said, I have an additional question: Do you pay property taxes on every screw, nut, & bolt? -RickG On Tue, Nov 10, 2009 at 1:36 PM, Tom DeReggi wrote: > Rick, > > No your assumption is not true. > > Property Tax is applied on "property".

Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
You do NOT have to identify the customer via IP. They may come to you with an IP addy and you CAN tell them that you need more than that. Once they give you some form of identity that will narrow it down to a single customer you may have to either give them the info or do the tap. What you CAN'T do is give them any information on anyone other than the target person. We worked extensively with the FBI on the standard. We went all over these details. My subpoena had a user name. They wanted (and eventually got) a name and phone number for the target. In this case we didn't have to do the "wire tap". But they knew info other than the IP addy. marlon - Original Message - From: "Faisal Imtiaz" To: "'WISPA General List'" Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 6:05 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement > You have to be able to Identify the Customer, weather you do it via IP or > any other info is a monior Technicality.

Re: [WISPA] IPTV -- Anyone doing it?
Middleware... we initially used something that started with an E... I don't remember. It was junk, and the developers were not too bright. We ended up going with Minerva - it's great. AT&T U-Verse runs Minerva, so that has to tell you something. Our headend was built by Avail Media. I don't know what software they used on the Linux encoders. I do know the 4-port ASI cards (which were something like $1200/ea) come with Linux software to encode from ASI to MPEG 4 and stream out via multicast. Initially we used some cheap-o STB's made by... again, the name escapes me. Mood or something. They were decent, actually. We ended up going with Motorola STBs because they supported HD. Again, U-Verse uses Moto STBs, so that tells you something. Middleware provides the guide.

That's the point I was trying to make. If you are going to run NAT/DHCP, then you need to track the MAC address of the CPE's.

You do NOT have to be able to identify the user by IP. What you have to be able to do is forward (in real time) all traffic to LEA.

Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
The point I was making is that Based on CALEA requirements, each ISP is supposed to keep records of useage and access, and should be available via easy access (not a few hrs of research). Disclosing the End user info to DMCA That is not what we do and not in favor off either, but using the logs to identify which customer is the ofender and having them stop is what we do actively do.

Re: [WISPA] IPTV -- Anyone doing it?
We're operate a small cable TV company in a minor section of our service area and carry about 55 channels which includes most of the major networks. We're interested in deploying IPTV. What middleware software would you recommend? You mentioned you used Linux in your headend environment. Can you elaborate on that setup, such as the software you were using to convert the channels to IP Multicast, set-top boxes being used, software providing channel guides, etc etc?

Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
CALEA does require that you be able to identify subscribers by IP address and, as necessary take captures. So, once this data is collected for CALEA compliance purposes (as is mandatory), then it can be used in other legal proceedings. However, I don't see how a service provider has to provide CALEA information unless requested by a law enforcement agency, which would require a criminal prosecution (to be accessed by the CALEA provisions which circumvent some of the normal due process for these requests) or a subpoena in an ongoing lawsuit. Still, all that said, I find it a complete breach of trust for a service provider to forward that information onto a third party outside of a subpoena or a CALEA request. This is true in cases of "copyright enforcement", which is usually more of a civil dispute between two parties than a criminal matter.

Re: [WISPA] NTIA / RUS - Request for Information for 2nd Round Released
WISPA as well will be filing comments, and have been patiently waiting this anticipated ROI. Tom DeReggi RapidDSL & Wireless, Inc IntAirNet- Fixed Wireless Broadband - Original Message - From: Charles Wu To: memb...@wispa.org ; WISPA General List Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 12:39 PM Subject: [WISPA] NTIA / RUS - Request for Information for 2nd Round Released We will be filing comments, so if you want to add your “2 cents” on the process, let me know and we’ll be more than happy to incorporate your thoughts Agencies Plan to Consolidate Final Two Funding Rounds, Seek Comment on Program Enhancements WASHINGTON – The USDA‟s Rural Utilities Service (RUS) and the Commerce Department‟s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) today announced they are streamlining the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act‟s broadband grant and loan programs by awarding the remaining funding in just one more round, instead of two rounds, to increase efficiency and better accommodate applicants. The agencies also announced they are seeking public comment on how best to administer the second round of funding for the programs in order to improve the applicant experience and maximize the ability of the programs to meet Recovery Act objectives. “Stakeholders will have the opportunity to provide us with well-informed feedback on how the first round worked for applicants, the agencies will be able to make improvements to the process, and potential applicants will gain more time to form partnerships and create stronger project proposals. Ultimately, this approach can help us run the programs with increased efficiency and produce better results for the American public,” Strickling said. In a Request for Information (RFI) released today, the agencies are seeking feedback on procedural and policy aspects of BIP and BTOP. While inviting general input on the programs, the agencies identified specific areas for comment. In terms of procedural matters, for example, the RFI seeks input on ways to streamline the application process while still ensuring that the agencies obtain the information necessary to make awards in accordance with statutory requirements. The RFI also asks whether the agencies can better balance the public‟s interest in transparency and openness with stakeholders‟ legitimate interest in maintaining the confidentiality of proprietary data. Among policy matters raised, the RFI seeks comment on how to best target the remaining funds to achieve the goals of the Recovery Act. Commenters proposing a more targeted approach are asked to quantify the impact of their proposal based on metrics such as the number of end users or community anchor institutions connecting to service, the number of new jobs created, and the projected increase in broadband adoption rates. The RFI asks whether to focus second round funding on projects that create “comprehensive communities” by installing high capacity middle mile facilities between anchor institutions that bring essential health, medical, and educational services to citizens. The RFI also invites input on various other issues, including whether the definition of “remote area,” which is used to determine grant eligibility under BIP, is too restrictive, how the agencies can best ensure that investments are cost effective, and ways the programs might impact regional economic development and stability.

Re: [WISPA] CPE - who buys it?
Quick Clarification As far as I know Personal Property Tax is a County Tax, and taxation is under the jurisdiction of the County Code, so its possible some states or Counties might not have a Personal Property Tax on anything. However, in our case the State collect Property Tax on behalf of the Counties. Many Counties get the "majority" of their income from Property Tax. With the Housing market crash, and falling property values, Counties have lost a huge percentage of their income, and usually in somewhat of a budget crisis because of it. For this reason it very possible that they might have their auditors look harder to areas other than Real Estate, to look for unreported taxable property. Just something to be concious about.

Re: [WISPA] CPE - who buys it?
Rick, No your assumption is not true. Property Tax is applied on "property". When you buy radio CPE it shows up on your financials as "property", and if you TAX DEDUCT the cost of the CPE, which I sure hope you do for your benefit, you have claimed those purchases as property. A Auditor isn;t going to go look for a single small purchase. But I assure you CPEs, a line item which adds up to be a huge inaggregate cost, they will immediately see that property and recognize whether that property was declared, and property tax properly paid on it or not. As a matter of fact some counties will check you federal returns, to find your claimed deductions and depreciations, and automatically assess your property tax based on your Federal Tax Returns. SO IF your county charges "Property Tax" then your CPEs are "TAXABLE PROPERTY" UNLESS your county specifically has passsed a law to "excemption" radio equipment. Loudon County Virgina is one specific County that made Wireless CPE exempt from property tax to foster local investment in Broadband. I wish more counties were as insightful, because it was a very effective program. Property Tax is NOT just for large real estate. Its paid on EVERY TANGIBLE ASSET you own. That include an office chair, a computer, a telephone, a router, a CPE, what ever it is that you own. Mike, Just because nobody has been commming around asking for Property Tax on CPE does not make it not owed. Property Tax is self claimed, so the government doesn't know you have that property until they decide to audit you, or you tell them. But why do you pay any tax of any kind at all? After all, if you aren't audited you wont have to pay it? Because you know when you are audited, you'll be in big trouble if you didn't. The same applied to Property Tax. The burden is on the Property Owner to know the law and properly report Tax, or it is illegal TAX Evading, if the owner does not report it. Yes, I've fully qualified the above with attorneys and accountants. I learned this the hard way. I originally over paid my property taxes, because I didn't know the laws. When I learned I over paid, I stopped reporting and paying Property tax. I got audited by the county, and they decided to estimate my Property Tax based on data reported on my income tax returns, which was about 10 times more than I actually owed. The way it work is, you pay everything the government claims, and then if you protest the amounts and win, they'll send you a refund. I made the mistake of fighting the process, and when I didn't pay the wrong amounts, they simply immediately cancelled my corporate status, reported it to credit agencies, and made it impossible for me to get a LOAN for over 1.5 years. I couldn't even renew my ARIN IP, until I got it cleared up. The reason you report Property Tax on CPE is so you can report the correct amounts. The government does not have access to the fact to assess a correct amount and will always grossly over estimate. You should also include a letter explaining anything that might look odd. This is the thing Property Tax is paid to the State that the property is located and installed in. So if you are a Pennsylvania business, and buy equipment from California, and install the CPE into Maryland, you pay Property Tax on that CPE to Maryland. The problem here is that most WISPs dont track where they will install a CPE at the time they buy bulk CPE, so there is usually not a good record of where to pay tax to. SO... IF you buy 100 CPEs and Pay Tax on 100 CPEs to your State, and then isntall 30 of those CPEs in another State, you owe that second State Property Tax for 30 CPEs. This means that you are at risk of paying Tax TWICE, if you do not properly track where property resides and break tax payments down appropriately to match. This is one of the reasons I am against tracking an ISP's end user locations. The States/Counties will then have a clear record to track how many CPEs an ISP has in their County. To find out if you owe property tax, you need to look at county code. Dont look for something to say that you have to pay tax on CPE, because it wont be there. By default you are obligated to pay tax on EVERYTHING, unless an excemption was given. So you are looking for an Excemption in the County Tax Code specifically for broadband investment. If you cant find one, Contact your County and point them to the fine example that Loudon County Virginia has made to help make their County one of the most advanced Broadband Counties in the Country, and ask them to follow in their foot steps. It was funny, when I contacted my County about Property Tax and that I'd likely be applying for a BTOP grant bringing in a large amount of new property, the first thing they saw was Dollar signs, and it was inferred they had no intentions of waiving the Property Tax. I found it extremely hippocritical, that they'd not waive property tax to help private
Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
This is correct, But the cable companys hand out public addresses with DHCP. So you can say, Yeah This address was assigned to "mac" on this date. And they know the offending IP because it was in the email, But When you nat all your customers, the ip in the email is the IP assigned to the wan interface of your router, or whatever you are masquerading out. So you have no idea what the internal IP was the offender. And no log will tell you which one was.

Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
OK so let's play out the scenario. Studio wants ISP send a letter to the customer ISP is NAT/DHCP - has no way to know Studio gets subpoena What now? At this point LEA is involved which demands cooperation. If the network is open WiFi, then there truly is no way to know. If the network is fixed installation, then the ISP "could" provide the information. So assuming it's a fixed installation, the ISP sets up a server with Wireshark or other packet capture and stores that data for1 day, 1 week, 1 month? At this point is the ISP breaking any privacy laws of customers that are NOT named in the subpoena? Not if the customer's TOA indicated that their Internet traffic MAY be stored and analyzed under legal request by LEA. Mind you this is all hypothetical.

Re: [WISPA] Metered Billing
I am not offering metered billing as of yet, but also plan to move to it very soon. I think you will see everyone move to it sooner or later. Bandwidth is cheap in the bigger cities, but even that is going to get used up before anyone knows it. Then the bandwidth providers have to do upgrades. Where is the cost going to be recouped? In the rural country, bandwidth is proportionately higher. I pay over $200/meg and just recently got this in the last few months after paying almost $425+/meg for years. What happens when dad wants to watch CSI on the Internet connected TV, Mom wants to watch Home and Garden Channel on Hulu, little brother wants to download 100 illegal mp3's on torrents, all while grandma is talking on VOIP, and grandpa is watching pron? The point is, at this time most customers are using very little. Even 100Mbit fiber backbone can sustain 10=10 meg users at a constant stream like my scenario provides. This is what is coming to be expected of us providers very soon. The idea has been to oversubscribe/oversell bandwidth and is the business model of probably %99 of all ISPs. Even the telcos oversell their telephone lines based on ratio. In the Internet market, all these high bandwidth applications are killing that idea now. Let NN get passed and you will see ALL the big boys jump on the metered bandwagon quicker than you can snap your fingers.

Re: [WISPA] customers dogs chewing on CAT5
OR one can just do a professional install job, and not have loose cables, and properly stable/fasten all cables flush to surfaces every three feet, and run behind walls, and under trims, etc. Dogs have never been a threat to my installs. Sure a Dog might chew a 6ft Patch Cable, but thats an easy fix, and easilly verified by end user. Now on the other hand a Weed Eater? We've had a few cut by lawn care, when the weeds grew up to the trim edge, cause they dont even know the cable is there, and accidentally get it.

Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
So if you are running a NAT/DHCP network, how would you find the offending customer? We are running static/public so we don't run into this. I think the simplest way is to require the studio to provide the IP for the server delivering copyrighted information. The ISP has to be tracking CPE MACs. Use MT's torch or Wireshark to look at connections across the network to find the BT server IP. Match the connection to the MAC and there you go. Maybe there is an easier way. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Nick Olsen Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 8:11 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement Really to cover yourself you would need to know what customer it came from, When NAT'ing that's hard to do.

Re: [WISPA] USF changes?
This is the critical phrase "The measure will expand who pays into the fund" Anyone know the answer? This is good if it makes high volume DSL and Cable Co to continue to pay USF fees. But not so good if it makes suburban WISPs have to start paying into the fund. Its a competitive advantage that WISPs dont have to pay the 5% USF tax currently, and needed advantage in the very competitive served markets, since WISPs are usually under dogs in their market.

Re: [WISPA] DMCA - copyright infringement
It all depends on the ISP. All they are doing is looking for the abuse email on the network. For our network this is us. However, Some of the bigger ISP's (TWTC...ect) actually have a up to date whois that you can query, So you Put in the info for lets say 65.33.33.33 and it says TWTC but once you query there whois it will tell you hostingcompanyx is who we issued this ip to. Linux's whois does this all by default. The point I'm making is, It is possible for the customer to be the one to receive the email, Its all about who is listed as a abuse contact on the whois page.

It makes sense to me that since they have no way of knowing the identity of the customer and all they really have is an ip address. That the ISP would have to connect the copyright owner to the customer. Billing them for the research work sounds like good idea to me. That way I am not preventing them from contacting the perpetrating party, and I also get paid for my time. -Adam On Tue, Nov 10, 2009 at 9:24 AM, Robert West wrote: > I agree.
