Have several POPs with Ubiquity on them. Only thing I have found so far are: 1.Web Interface seems flaky at times. Several clients simply stop responding to web requests to login to the interface. Unit works fine so it’s low on the list. 2.If you use 5/10 MHZ channels I highly recommend Ubiquity cards. Still seeing issues with the r52 cards. There are forum posts which say there are quite a few with these issues as well. Seen the issues as recent as a week ago. Not tried then yet with the R52N cards.

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
I have 350+ Tranzeo CPE's in the field. Love em, The AP's are good too, pretty much set and forget, but I use MT for AP's because I love MT's goodies. But for a non-tech savy person I would not hesitate to advise them to deploy a Tranzeo AP. A lot of people bash Tranzeo but actually the company is doing really well. I think there are many more WISPS out there using them with great success and not reporting back to any lists. My network as 99% Tranzeo CPE's and I'm glad I made the decision to uniformly deploy them back in 2005. I've seen other wisps deploy a mix of CPE's and it never turns out good, just makes a mess. I can go to any client and swap a radio within 5 minutes using only a nut driver. Plus I've been thinking about 3.65 and I am very glad to hear of the Aperto merger. This is def something I want to deploy someday and I wanted to stay with Tranzeo for CPE and so now I'll be able to do that. Just imagine being able to swap out the customer's old CPE200-15 radio with a new WIMAX radio within 5 minutes using only a nut driver. I can because I have uniformly deployed the same CPE for all my clients. Oh and BTW, In 5 years have only had 1 water leak issue with the boot cover, and I hand tighten them as well.

However, due to some of the issues that you are discussing here I NEVER USE THEM BRIDGED. Try setting it to router and login to the radio. If all is fine there then the cabling is fine.

After we read all of the words and realized that Vertical Polarity was the "other" way, we now have great signal. :-) The problem is, we're losing Ethernet connectivity on the inside to the Router. About every 10-15 minutes, it drops off, then comes back on its own after about 5 minutes. We've replaced Radios, Cable Ends, Power Supply, Router, Changed IP Addresses - Still drops off.

We have been plagued with an ongoing issue in our Mikrotik backhauls. It happens about once a month and only on three radios that feed each other, all other sites work fine. Site A is my head end, it is a Mikrotik 433 with an XR5 chip that feeds about five miles to another site to Site B. Site B has the same equipment that goes through a managed switch then passes on to Site C about 7 miles further. What happens is we are suddenly paged that all three are down. Sometimes Site A stays up, most times not, we can get into Site A since it's the head end and we reboot it, it comes right back up. Site B and C stay down, we have to drive to Site B and reboot it, it comes back up but Site C stays down.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo to acquire Aperto
Well, I fully agree that there was a time in history when ATI conflicted with every other thing, and Nvidia just worked. But in today's world, I'm finding Nvidia to be almost just as bad.(And I'm a Nvidia fan) Now, my ATI cards seem to just work. I'm not talking about gaming compatibilty. I'm talking about the whole PC crashing or wierd video problems, just using the operating system with various MBs. Its a vicious circle, this PC world we live in..

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo to acquire Aperto
Well. "Aperto's current backlog of all purchase orders is US$8.3 million. This will be added to Tranzeo's current backlog of US$32.7M." "Tranzeo will issue common shares to the stockholders of Aperto based on a US$5 million base consideration amount, as adjusted for liabilities and cash of Aperto at closing." I dont know that "in-trouble" was an appropriate inference, Aperto has many valueable assets such as patents, reputation, and customer base. But the above quotes would suggest that Aperto was comming up short on capital (cash) for future growth, considering it appears they agreed to merge for under the value of pending revenue/sales. Whether this is a good thing for past Aperto Stockholders, I do not know. But I can only view this as a good thing for WISPs, and the emerged stronger combined company. I also would think this would strengthen equipment buyer's confidence that they were buying into a complete solution that would last, with the AP/CPE manufactures tied togeather as one by more than just the "wimax standard". I also find it interesting that Aperto will continue to operating as an independent subsidiary, after words. I could think of a few reasons why. Just wondering if that is partially to also protect each product line's focus (Aperto high end, Tranzeo value line). Then again, maybe operating under the Tranzeo vision, Aperto AP will migrate into the "value line" also. I dont mean anything bad by that, Aperto offers lots of value, I'm just referring to the fact that the Tranzeo compoents sell at lower price. I also dont think this is a good one to compare to Proxim mergers, as just occured. With Proxim mergers, there wasn't really much complimentary product offerings achievied by each party, if anything there was duplication of lines and discontinuance of lines. Where as with Aperto/Tranzeo, clearly the marriage of the AP and CPE makes sense.

Re: [WISPA] Oh this business, tell me again why we love it?!
Bob, I fully agree with your point. FCC enforcement is not the best method for promptly curing illegal interference that is harming one's operations. The process does not move fast enough for that. I know if I have not resolved such interference within the day, I've lost the subscribers. There is always a better approach, whether it be to rebuild one's own equipment/network to work around it, negotiate directly with other party, cause reciprocal harm until they play nice, or have attorney send letter. FCC enforcement only occurs at a time table acceptable to penalize those that abuse and ignore the regulations. It was mentioned recently by WISPA's attorney (Steve), that the FCC's authority is only to shut down abusers and fine abusers. There are no mechanisms or legal authority for compensating those that have been interferred with. If illegal interference occurs to the level that rebuilding one's own radio solution can not help, and the time involved in engaging the FCC is needed, I'd argue that it is likely a situation where the one being interfered with is at risk of incurring enough significant harm, that it may be wise to document the violation legally anyways. Thus, might be worth sending the attorney letter. You'd atleast then be able to prove if the violator agreed or refused to cooperate and take corrective action.

It's a hotspot, but not just a hotspot, one with tens of thousands of people. The new PDA phones have 5.x GHz chipsets, and I'm hoping to offload a significant number of clients on that bad where feasible.

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
The best way to describe how to tightnen these covers is to NOT use a tool... ever. Press the cover closed near the stud... press it hard against the back plate of the radios squishing the foam. Hand tighten the nut as far as you can. Let go of cover, let the foam expand a bit. Done. DO NOT over tighten.. if you do, the corners of the cover bow up and let in water. The only water issue I have EVER had with a TRZ radio was when I had a bad seal from the factory on a backhaul... that operated for over a year... and I only discovered it when I moved it and it sloshed.

Re: [WISPA] Does anybody have any ideas?
Do the radios show link connection before you reboot? If so, have you tried to MAC telnet into them? I have a couple that would show down but I could MAC telnet into them. All of the onboard functions worked. Then I tried to ping something else and got a buffer overflow error. Reboot would fix for some period of time. At least with mine I did not have to go to the site.

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
I have had issues on FM Towers that cause problems with ethernet - not just with Tranzeo either. We are getting ready to run fiber up an FM tower in the next two weeks to resolve ongoing ethernet issues. One of the FM stations most likely has an antenna going bad that is causing the problem. Same thing happened last year, and two weeks after we ran the fiber, the main FM antenna at that tower burned up, with holes melted through the connectors at the bottom.They were lucky it didn't burst into flames. Tranzeo's ethernet setup is actually pretty robust. There is a ferrite bead inside on the ethernet jumper and it does seem to make it work better than a few other radios I have used.

Re: [WISPA] ubnt bridging
One thing I have noticed is that when I ping the local MT box (x.x.x.125) ip from the AP I get a reply and I also see icmp traffic on the local MT with torch. If I ping the ip of the subnet that I am trying to route to the local MT box (x.x.x.194) I get several reply's back from x.x.x.126 which is the bullet and I get no traffic on the local MT box. Also, I do have a port on the local MT box configured with an ip (x.x.x.194) of the subnet that I am trying to route. It looks like the bullet is passing it's local subnet traffic. Any other traffic not on it's local subnet it is trying to reply to instead of bridging it. I don't see any option on the bullet to enable / disable proxy-arp. I know sometimes I need proxy-arp on my AP's to make things work.

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
This is not a water issue. New radio today, and it started acting up within 30 minutes. Our whole wireless network is "bridged" - we haven't seen issue like this with any other setup we have out there. The only component we haven't swapped out is the wire up to the radio. It's new construction, with a professionally installed outdoor Cat5 run to the radio.

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
These guys always whine about Tranzeo's cover and seals. If you just don't over tighten them and make sure the seal is on right at the top they work great. I have 450 of them out with only 3 water issues in 3 years. All those were installer overzealous with a nut driver or putting to much cable in the boot messing with the seal. However, due to some of the issues that you are discussing here I NEVER USE THEM BRIDGED. Try setting it to router and login to the radio. If all is fine there then the cabling is fine. You can port forward to a inside address if you want with Tranzeo. Is bridged really important.

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
We have seen Tranzeos have bad negotiation issues. We stopped using Tranzeo with the newer GIG port Mikrotiks. They simply wont keep the link. We advise our clients to either keep some 450 10/100 boards on stock or swap out the tranzeos rather than hooking up to a Gig port. I know what you all are thinking. Simply hard set the router port to 10 or 100. Doesn¹t work in the real world. I have verified this with TR6000, CPQ, and TR5x. All with varying levels of firmware.

What about the router? Has this been changed at all? Can you try a dumb layer 2 switch between the two? What are you using to determine the Ethernet connectivity is lost?

Re: [WISPA] Speaking of Tranzeo......
Yes. IME the whole Ethernet world of Tranzeo is just...bad... The plastic boot never sealed for me. I thought it had on the last radio but I came to find out that it was filling with water (though working GREAT for years). If I were you I'd make sure there is no obvious water build up and then 1) recrimp both ends 2) replace radio 3) replace line If you can see Ethernet errors put ferrite on after you recrimp.

("Aperto") and key Aperto shareholders. Under the terms of the merger agreement, and upon the satisfaction of closing conditions, Aperto will be merged into a newly incorporated subsidiary of Tranzeo, with Aperto surviving and continuing to be operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tranzeo. The merger will greatly increase Tranzeo's market share as it becomes a complete end-to-end broadband solutions provider featuring WiFi, WiMax and LTE products. Aperto's current backlog of all purchase orders is US $8.3 million. This will be added to Tranzeo's current backlog of US$32.7M. "Acquiring Aperto immediately transforms Tranzeo into a market leading complete solutions provider for major telecommunications operators while still supplying product to Tranzeo's existing wireless Internet service providers," said Jim Tocher, President and CEO of Tranzeo. "With an established world-wide customer base and a pipeline of new customers now in trials, the benefits of today's announcement will start to bear fruit within a year. The future for Tranzeo has never looked better." "The combining of Tranzeo and Aperto is a big win for wireless service providers," said Randall Meals, Chairman of Aperto's Board and Managing Director of Quicksilver Ventures. "We continue to be bullish on the broadband wireless market and now Tranzeo's position in the market." Existing Tranzeo and Aperto customers will greatly benefit from the combined technologies and complete solutions Tranzeo will now be able to provide. "Tranzeo's responsiveness, world-class manufacturing and additional product breadth combined with Aperto's proven worldwide sales, support team, and channels will significantly benefit our customers on a global basis,"said Bill Waters, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Support at Aperto Networks.

Re: [WISPA] Oh this business, tell me again why we love it?!
I inherited a system with several Hyperlink 15dBi antennas on the "repeater" sites. My first thought was "yuk". After living with them for over 3 years I've been very impressed on how well they work. I tried replacing one with a Pacific Wireless OD24-12 unit with electronic downtilt, lost association with half my clients and the other half had high packet loss. I ended up putting the original omni back in. I'm all ears on explanations for these results. -RickG On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 10:58 AM, Cameron Crum wrote: > Can't say how many times I posted on different lists warning about "15 > dBi" omnis.

Re: [WISPA] Does anybody have any ideas?
Is there a reason you are using Pseudobridge? You will not be able to pass any MAC addresses behind the Station (CPE/Slave), it MAC NATs. Change to WDS instead and see if your problems go away. It is better to have a layer 2 bridge and deal with the broadcasts at each site.

Re: [WISPA] Does anybody have any ideas?
All sites have good, clean power? Do the logs say anything before you reboot? Dirty power causes a ton of weird issues. If you have something that regulates the power you can rule that out. It could be maybe a motor or something kicks on and causes enough voltage drop to lockup the board. If would turn on graphing on the Tiks themselves. Have it write to disk so it survives a reboot. See if the CPU spikes, bandwidth spikes, or whatever. Logging to disk is also a good idea. -- Justin Wilson http://www.mtin.net http://www.metrospan.net From: Forbes Mercy Reply-To: WISPA General List Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2010 10:46:11 -0700 To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Does anybody have any ideas?

We have been plagued with an ongoing issue in our Mikrotik backhauls. It happens about once a month and only on three radios that feed each other, all other sites work fine.

[WISPA] Does anybody have any ideas?
We have been plagued with an ongoing issue in our Mikrotik backhauls. It happens about once a month and only on three radios that feed each other, all other sites work fine. Site A is my head end, it is a Mikrotik 433 with an XR5 chip that feeds about five miles to another site to Site B. Site B has the same equipment that goes through a managed switch then passes on to Site C about 7 miles further. What happens is we are suddenly paged that all three are down. Sometimes Site A stays up, most times not, we can get into Site A since it's the head end and we reboot it, it comes right back up. Site B and C stay down, we have to drive to Site B and reboot it, it comes back up but Site C stays down. We have a remote reboot for it from a redundant feed so after rebooting it C reconnects to B and they are all up. This will happen three or four more times in a single day or not at all again for a month, it's totally unpredictable. The boards are up but not communicating, it also takes down the other 2.4 Mikortik AP's at Site B and that has to be rebooted. We normally run arp -d to clear up any residual, it sure appears to be traffic related and we are on a bridged not routed network. The only similarities is it's only this feed, it usually happens in spurts of a day or two then stops for a long time, it always happens during the working day leading me to believe it's coming from a day user. We run Wireshark but see nothing, we torch the towers and they don't show much unusual. We're thinking it might be a deluge of traffic between Site B and C and are thinking of putting a PC at the C tower to run diagnostics there. This is very manpower heavy as we have to send people two places and average down time is one hour to do this. We are going to turn our network into a routed network this Summer but that doesn't help now. Any ideas would be appreciated. Forbes WISPA Wants You!

(CA:TZT 1.61, +0.04, +2.55%), a premier manufacturer of wireless broadband and WiMAX communication systems, announced today it has entered into a definitive merger agreement with Aperto Networks, Inc. ("Aperto") and key Aperto shareholders. Under the terms of the merger agreement, and upon the satisfaction of closing conditions, Aperto will be merged into a newly incorporated subsidiary of Tranzeo, with Aperto surviving and continuing to be operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tranzeo. The merger will greatly increase Tranzeo's market share as it becomes a complete end-to-end broadband solutions provider featuring WiFi, WiMax and LTE products. Aperto's current backlog of all purchase orders is US$8.3 million. This will be added to Tranzeo's current backlog of US$32.7M. "Acquiring Aperto immediately transforms Tranzeo into a market leading complete solutions provider for major telecommunications operators while still supplying product to Tranzeo's existing wireless Internet service providers," said Jim Tocher, President and CEO of Tranzeo. "With an established world-wide customer base and a pipeline of new customers now in trials, the benefits of today's announcement will start to bear fruit within a year. The future for Tranzeo has never looked better." "The combining of Tranzeo and Aperto is a big win for wireless service providers," said Randall Meals, Chairman of Aperto's Board and Managing Director of Quicksilver Ventures. "We continue to be bullish on the broadband wireless market and now Tranzeo's position in the market." Existing Tranzeo and Aperto customers will greatly benefit from the combined technologies and complete solutions Tranzeo will now be able to provide. "Tranzeo's responsiveness, world-class manufacturing and additional product breadth combined with Aperto's proven worldwide sales, support team, and channels will significantly benefit our customers on a global basis,"said Bill Waters, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Support at Aperto Networks. "I am looking forward to serving our existing customers, expanding our market and providing new solutions to our channel partners." "This is very good news for TRG and the future of broadband services in Indonesia," said Gatot Tetuko, President of PT. Teknologi Riset Global (TRG), an affiliate company of leading telecommunication infrastructure provider the Indonesian Tower Group. "With our joint development agreement with Tranzeo, this will give us access to additional advanced wireless technologies which we will incorporate into our broadband solutions." Tranzeo expects to complete the acquisition of Aperto through issuances of common shares to the stockholders of Aperto. Upon satisfaction of the required closing conditions, Tranzeo will issue common shares to the stockholders of Aperto based on a US$5 million base consideration amount, as adjusted for liabilities and cash of Aperto at closing. Subject to the satisfaction of certain additional earn-out conditions, Tranzeo may issue additional common shares to the stockholders of Aperto based on revenues attributable to certain products of Aperto that are sold by Tranzeo during a one-year earn-out period following the date of closing of the merger. These earn-out shares would be issued within 120 days of the expiry of the earn-out period. All share issuances will be based on the volume weighted average trading price of Tranzeo's common shares for the five trading days prior to this announcement of the Merger Agreement. The merger is anticipated to be completed in mid-April 2010. Completion of the merger will be subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of the proposed merger by the Toronto Stock Exchange and by the stockholders of Aperto. Tranzeo stockholder approval is not required. Tranzeo has agreed to appoint a representative of Aperto to its board of directors on closing. The common shares proposed to be issued have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from applicable registration requirements in the US.

[WISPA] Tranzeo to acquire Aperto
Didn't see this one coming but it looks like it could lead to some nice products for WISPs. http://bit.ly/bX4HTc Canadian Company Tranzeo Wireless to Acquire Aperto Networks Tranzeo strengthens its international market with complete broadband solution PITT MEADOWS, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Mar 31, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- BC-based Tranzeo Wireless Technologies Inc. (CA:TZT 1.61, +0.04, +2.55%), a premier manufacturer of wireless broadband and WiMAX communication systems, announced today it has entered into a definitive merger agreement with Aperto Networks, Inc. ("Aperto") and key Aperto shareholders. Under the terms of the merger agreement, and upon the satisfaction of closing conditions, Aperto will be merged into a newly incorporated subsidiary of Tranzeo, with Aperto surviving and continuing to be operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tranzeo. The merger will greatly increase Tranzeo's market share as it becomes a complete end-to-end broadband solutions provider featuring WiFi, WiMax and LTE products. Aperto's current backlog of all purchase orders is US$8.3 million. This will be added to Tranzeo's current backlog of US$32.7M. "Acquiring Aperto immediately transforms Tranzeo into a market leading complete solutions provider for major telecommunications operators while still supplying product to Tranzeo's existing wireless Internet service providers," said Jim Tocher, President and CEO of Tranzeo. "With an established world-wide customer base and a pipeline of new customers now in trials, the benefits of today's announcement will start to bear fruit within a year. The future for Tranzeo has never looked better." "The combining of Tranzeo and Aperto is a big win for wireless service providers," said Randall Meals, Chairman of Aperto's Board and Managing Director of Quicksilver Ventures. "We continue to be bullish on the broadband wireless market and now Tranzeo's position in the market." Existing Tranzeo and Aperto customers will greatly benefit from the combined technologies and complete solutions Tranzeo will now be able to provide. "Tranzeo's responsiveness, world-class manufacturing and additional product breadth combined with Aperto's proven worldwide sales, support team, and channels will significantly benefit our customers on a global basis,"said Bill Waters, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Support at Aperto Networks. "I am looking forward to serving our existing customers, expanding our market and providing new solutions to our channel partners." "This is very good news for TRG and the future of broadband services in Indonesia," said Gatot Tetuko, President of PT. Teknologi Riset Global (TRG), an affiliate company of leading telecommunication infrastructure provider the Indonesian Tower Group. "With our joint development agreement with Tranzeo, this will give us access to additional advanced wireless technologies which we will incorporate into our broadband solutions." Tranzeo expects to complete the acquisition of Aperto through issuances of common shares to the stockholders of Aperto. Upon satisfaction of the required closing conditions, Tranzeo will issue common shares to the stockholders of Aperto based on a US$5 million base consideration amount, as adjusted for liabilities and cash of Aperto at closing. Subject to the satisfaction of certain additional earn-out conditions, Tranzeo may issue additional common shares to the stockholders of Aperto based on revenues attributable to certain products of Aperto that are sold by Tranzeo during a one-year earn-out period following the date of closing of the merger. These earn-out shares would be issued within 120 days of the expiry of the earn-out period. All share issuances will be based on the volume weighted average trading price of Tranzeo's common shares for the five trading days prior to this announcement of the Merger Agreement. The merger is anticipated to be completed in mid-April 2010. Completion of the merger will be subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of the proposed merger by the Toronto Stock Exchange and by the stockholders of Aperto. Tranzeo stockholder approval is not required. Tranzeo has agreed to appoint a representative of Aperto to its board of directors on closing. The common shares proposed to be issued have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from applicable registration requirements in the US. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Re: [WISPA] Oh this business, tell me again why we love it?!
If they are operating illegally, a quick way to get them shut down is to contact the owner of the tower they are on next to yours. I recommend a verbal phone call informing them of the situation including all documentation via e-mail. I would follow it with a certified letter. Most tower operators / owners do not want to be involved with lawsuits. Almost all tower contracts provide the operator a stick to beat the bad tenant with. You can simultaneously go for a civil lawsuit under tortuous interference. Under TR you are able to get Treble Damages (a good thing to note in your letters). Marco Coelho Argon Technologies Inc.

Re: [WISPA] Oh this business, tell me again why we love it?!
Can't say how many times I posted on different lists warning about "15 dBi" omnis. It is next to impossible to make a 15 dBi omni with any usable elevation beamwidth at all - electrical downtilt or not. 12 dBi is pretty much the maximum and at that you will be lucky to see anything over a degree on the elevation pattern. Having been in the antenna business before and with a partner who made a career out of designing antennas, I can tell you that we would never use an omni greater than 10 dBi for any application.

Re: [WISPA] Oh this business, tell me again why we love it?!
Hyperlink is still around... L-Com. It's not really the vendor's fault. Realistically there could be applications where an amp is needed, i.e. long coax runs, smaller antennas, etc. It really is up to the operator to make sure they are in compliance.
