 Is that Air rate you are quoting ?
  256QAM on a 10meg channel falls short of 100MBps ...

Re: [AFMUG] [Fiber] FS: Directional Drill Package - Ditch Witch JT820

2015-06-12 Thread Chuck Hogg
This is literally one of DW's smallest machines.  We have the slightly
newer version, the 922.  We will likely replace ours with a bigger machine
as well in the next year or so.  A good Mach1 1220/2020 would be a nice
upgrade to get longer than 250-300' in drilling.  Additionally, the bigger
drills are self-loading on the rod, so it is significantly faster and
cleaner to deal with.

Regards,
Chuck

 We've decided to upgrade our drill so I'm offering this complete drill
 package for sale. This is everything you need to drive out to the job site
 and start drilling tomorrow.

 Ditch Witch JT820 Directional Drill

 Ditch Witch 14,500lb GVW trailer

 Ditch Witch PF22 300gal mud system

 Digitrak Mark III locator system with remote display and yellow sonde

 Full rack of drill pipe (30 sticks)

 Entire pallet of tooling, backreamers, and misc spare parts.



 Drill is in good working order. We've been using it almost every day this
 spring. Hours unknown. We've been able to drill about 250ft max in one bore
 and have pulled 700ft length of two 1.25 innerduct with this drill. It's
 really a nice little package and light enough to pull with a pickup.

 Recently has had over $3k in new parts this spring including new carriage
 slide and bearings, chain sprocket bearings, rear wrench collar and
 cylinder, rebuilt mud pump and new cooling fan on trailer, two new 70ft mud
 hoses, several other things I can't recall.

 Asking $19,000 obo for the package. May sell pieces individually. Willing
 to provide 1 day of training to buyer. Located in Michigan. I can take
 photos and video for seriously interested buyer.

 Also available: Second JT820 drill, running condition but not recently
 used much, was our backup drill. Extra Mark III locator. Additional drill
 pipe.

[AFMUG] Packetflux PDU, backwards ports

2015-06-12 Thread Adam Moffett
So I just set up two PDU's where the outputs on the label are in the 
exact opposite order compared to the labels displayed in the web page.  
In other words, where the stcker says out1 the web page says Output 5.


It caused some confusion...and it's a good thing the circuit breakers 
work :)


If this is the way they're all going to be, I can just relabel them in 
the web page and move on.  If it's an error in assembly I'm worried that 
any SNMP probes I'm making to track tripped ports are going to be 
opposite on future units.  Anybody know?

Right but there's only one side of the link...so there's the distance issue. 

Also why would they need that many blocks?  Isn't the moon's gravity 1/6?

Re: [AFMUG] Packetflux PDU, backwards ports

2015-06-12 Thread Forrest Christian (List Account)
Yep.  We screwed up the software labeling somehow so it doesn't match the
label.  I've got patched software that I just need to verify matches the
label and that all of the overcurrent stuff still works after the fix.  I
honestly had thought that this had been completed and that we were already
shipping revised code until someone asked about it a week ago.  A look in
the code confirms a fix was applied but I can't confirm it was tested so
that's where we stand.

Unfortunately, the workbench with all the relevant tools on it has been
tied up this week with a project which was in the a lot of pieces which
are all wired together and impossible to move without wrecking everything
stage so I haven't been able to verify the fix.   That project is finally
in a more moveable format and I should be able to compete this testing this
weekend.  Unless something unexpected happens, look for a firmware release
most likely late Sunday, with an email to everyone who purchased one
shortly thereafter.
On Jun 12, 2015 1:45 PM, Adam Moffett dmmoff...@gmail.com wrote:

 So I just set up two PDU's where the outputs on the label are in the exact
 opposite order compared to the labels displayed in the web page.  In other
 words, where the stcker says out1 the web page says Output 5.

 It caused some confusion...and it's a good thing the circuit breakers work
 :)

 If this is the way they're all going to be, I can just relabel them in the
 web page and move on.  If it's an error in assembly I'm worried that any
 SNMP probes I'm making to track tripped ports are going to be opposite on
 future units.  Anybody know?

Either they are relying on auto channel selection, or more likely they are

We ended up just making a LAG on the switches on either side.  The formula the

routed VLAN as the MACs on both sides always stay the same.  One cable on each 
for its MGMT, and the other cable for the LAG port.

We've done several links using a PTP at one end and a normal connectorized 
radio at the other end. I haven't ever seen an ePMP link do enough over 100 meg 
for me to care about having a gigabit port.

You can run the PTP radios off passive power too, they're probably the least 
picky about power of any radios I've used - you can even run them directly off 
a UBNT power supply.

Glad to hear it!  I'm not sure there's any benefit to the PTP radios either. 
The containerized 5 GHz radios do the same throughput and work with passive

there's a killer bug that's causing the link to hang =(

[AFMUG] PMP320 Sync Help

2015-06-12 Thread Chris Fabien
I have a PMP320 AP losing sync, if I reboot the AP it will show Sync for a
few minutes, then show Sync 1PPS Lost, sometimes it will appear to switch
back and forth. Also seen No Sync. When showing no sync, the stations seem
to be continually re-registering.

This is using a sync pipe with timing cable. Of course I'm out of town for
the weekend with no spare APs or sync pipes on hand to have a climber try
swapping.

Any thoughts as to what piece might be the problem or a way to get it back
online? Never seen one do this before, we only have a few of these APs on
the network.

 We've done several links using a PTP at one end and a normal connectorized
 radio at the other end. I haven't ever seen an ePMP link do enough over 100
 meg for me to care about having a gigabit port.

 You can run the PTP radios off passive power too, they're probably the
 least picky about power of any radios I've used - you can even run them
 directly off a UBNT power supply.

 We are replacing it with a JT2020 Mach1. We have ended up doing a lot more

 which is really not bad but when you have a mile of duct to run, it starts
 to mean a couple extra days work.

 We also decided to deploy fiber in a town area with 330ft blocks so being
 able to drill 350-400ft in one bore will be helpful. When we bought the
 JT820 we were only planning rural areas that were to be direct buried by
 cable plow with drilling only short runs to cross roads or other obatacles.

 Chuck's right that its about as small as drills come but it was a great

very clearly detail any and all network management practices that we use 
while stating the reason for such practices. As we run a fixed-wireless 
network, P2P transmissions have a very detrimental effect on wireless 
networking equipment - it affects all users on that node (and often 
other nodes) and impacts our ability to provide consistent service that 
individuals and businesses pay for. We have very little recourse in the 
matter. We can either block this singular type of traffic - not the 
content, but the delivery method - in accordance with the /reasonable

allow a singular user to impact the ability of several dozen or several 
hundred people. It is our belief that the FCC would not be so heavy 
handed and shortsighted as to force providers to allow a very specific 
type at the detriment of so many. We encourage the manufacturers of 
fixed wireless equipment to harden and redesign their equipment when 
and where necessary to allow us to unblock this singular type of 
traffic, so that we may open this back up. In addition, we have had no 
complaints over _X_ years due to this traffic limitation [obviously 
until this time]. Had an individual or business questioned our AUP or 
called to complain, we could have suggested they tunnel their P2P 
traffic over any one of a number of proxy or VPN services available for 
free or for a small fee on the internet. This would allow them access to 
the content they requested, still via P2P clients, without having a 
negative impact on other subscribers.

Re: [AFMUG] EPMP 10 mhz vs 20mhz

2015-06-12 Thread Ken Hohhof
To have a chance of surviving the reasonable network management test (and 
keep in mind it is likely not a court that you would be trying to persuade), 
it looks to me like using DPI to block an application (FCC already in their 
2008 ruling against Comcast characterized Bit Torrent as an application) 
would be on shaky ground.  Better to limit some technical parameter like 
number of open TCP connections, with some backup as to why the technical 
characteristics are harmful to your network.


Other than the bandwidth used, I'm not sure why BT is so harmful to Josh's 
network.  Maybe he is using NAT and a BT customer consumes too many entries 
in his router's conntrack table.  If it's just the amount of sustained 
bandwidth used, the FCC told Comcast they should instead use other means 
like data caps or bandwidth limits, as long as they were transparent about 
it.

Your honor/insert title, in our Acceptable Use Policy that each
customer signs, in accordance with the rules laid down by the FCC, we
very clearly detail any and all network management practices that we use
while stating the reason for such practices. As we run a fixed-wireless
network, P2P transmissions have a very detrimental effect on wireless
networking equipment - it affects all users on that node (and often
other nodes) and impacts our ability to provide consistent service that
individuals and businesses pay for. We have very little recourse in the
matter. We can either block this singular type of traffic - not the
content, but the delivery method - in accordance with the /reasonable
network management/ clauses laid down in the FCC's rulings, or we can
allow a singular user to impact the ability of several dozen or several
hundred people. It is our belief that the FCC would not be so heavy
handed and shortsighted as to force providers to allow a very specific
type at the detriment of so many. We encourage the manufacturers of
fixed wireless equipment to harden and redesign their equipment when
and where necessary to allow us to unblock this singular type of
traffic, so that we may open this back up. In addition, we have had no
complaints over _X_ years due to this traffic limitation [obviously
until this time]. Had an individual or business questioned our AUP or
called to complain, we could have suggested they tunnel their P2P
traffic over any one of a number of proxy or VPN services available for
free or for a small fee on the internet. This would allow them access to
the content they requested, still via P2P clients, without having a
negative impact on other subscribers.

How many of us are doing 140 mile links too. ;-) 

I don't consider anything under ~30 dB worthwhile for backhaul almost anywhere. 
;-) 

Anything more than 15 - 20 miles, I go to 34 dB. At 140 miles I wouldn't use 
any less than 8' dishes.

  some oddities like intermittent increases in latency, they have all

 Your honor/insert title, in our Acceptable Use Policy that each

 very clearly detail any and all network management practices that we use 
 while stating the reason for such practices. As we run a fixed-wireless 
 network, P2P transmissions have a very detrimental effect on wireless 
 networking equipment - it affects all users on that node (and often 
 other nodes) and impacts our ability to provide consistent service that 
 individuals and businesses pay for. We have very little recourse in the 
 matter. We can either block this singular type of traffic - not the 
 content, but the delivery method - in accordance with the /reasonable 
 network management/ clauses laid down in the FCC's rulings, or we can 
 allow a singular user to impact the ability of several dozen or several 
 hundred people. It is our belief that the FCC would not be so heavy 
 handed and shortsighted as to force providers to allow a very specific 
 type at the detriment of so many. We encourage the manufacturers of 
 fixed wireless equipment to harden and redesign their equipment when 
 and where necessary to allow us to unblock this singular type of 
 traffic, so that we may open this back up. In addition, we have had no 
 complaints over _X_ years due to this traffic limitation [obviously 
 until this time]. Had an individual or business questioned our AUP or 
 called to complain, we could have suggested they tunnel their P2P 
 traffic over any one of a number of proxy or VPN services available for 
 free or for a small fee on the internet. This would allow them access to 
 the content they requested, still via P2P clients, without having a 
 negative impact on other subscribers.

He had a 75-mile 18GHz link, from what I recall.

I'm not sure that this is a record, but no doubt close. Travis Johnson 
had something close in Idaho. I thought someone in South America and 
Italy had links in that area.

Re: [AFMUG] AF5x Record?

2015-06-12 Thread Josh Reynolds
 August 27, 2007 A new world record distance for a 5 GHz Wi-Fi link has 
been achieved by the Italian Center for Radio Activities (C.I.S.A.R), 
and Ubiquiti Networks, a leading innovator in outdoor wireless broadband 
solutions. The distance of 304km (188.89 miles) was established from 
Sardinia Island to Central Italy achieving data-rates of about 5Mbps, 
using Ubiquiti’s XtremeRange5 (XR5) High-Power Carrier Class mini-PCI 
radio module and 35dBi 5 GHz parabolic dish antennas.

Re: [AFMUG] Force110 PTP links

2015-06-12 Thread Josh Luthman
Let's assume it is misaligned (based on what Alex said it should be
something like -51).  AF5x can't register unless it's perfectly aligned?
That's the part that concerns me the most.

 In most cases, this kind of chain imbalance means alignment or bad

 waiting to see if replacing it with a spare fixes it.
 If it does, this would be the first case we've heard about w/ these

 feedback.

 Either way, let us know what you find...

Re: [AFMUG] Force110 PTP links

2015-06-12 Thread Josh Luthman
My Rocket M5 is passing 30 megs on it right now.  So again, if it is
misaligned:
AF5x doesn't associate
Rocket M5 passes 30 megs

If it is aligned:
AF5x doesn't associate
Rocket M5 passes 30 megs

Which would you prefer?

What if this was a new install and I'm trying to align it starting with
AF5x radios?  At that kind of a signal it won't associate?!  I remember the
days when I could have an XR5 in an rb532 with a grid laying in the bed
associate at -90 to make sure the configuration was right.

   If you’re supposed to have –51 but actually have –66 on one chain and
 –77 on the other, you’re on a sidelobe or don’t have clear LOS or are so
 badly misaligned you’re operating on multipath.  So it may be unfair to say
 that AF5X is requiring “perfect alignment”.  The dBm level may not be
 telling the whole story, if you aren’t even in the right zipcode as far as
 alignment.
