Re: Wireless bridge
Hello -
On this same topic does anyone have any experience with the Linksys
WAP200E?
thanks and regards

I implemented a PTP link at about 3 miles using these Solectek
radios. I get 40Mbps consistently with TCP traffic and ~100Mbps
UDP. This PTP link has literally been up for 3 years (in 2 weeks)
without failing. I live in a 4 seaons state, so its seen all sorts
of weather over those years. I have clean line of site down the
freeway for what its worth. Its natively powered via POE, power
injector included. We run all sorts of usual business application
over this link, including about 30 simultaneous VOIP channels, and
have not had one issue with stability. I was also told by the VAR
that sold us the product that a city nearby (can't remember which
one) connects all of its municipal buildings with Solectek stuff
and runs its VOIP infrastructure over it as well.
We run it in bridged mode with routers on each end, but it does
support some rudimentary L3 stuff, static routing and RIP.
IIRC, they were not "cheap" (couple of 1k), but for us have
definitely been much cheaper than private circuits from carriers of
comparable throughput capacity.
Hope its helpful.

I have to say I did a double take on your speed claims. We use
Solectek all over the place and have yet to archived those speeds on
any of our links. Not only that Solectek engineers have told us that
at a 108mbps radio rate realistically you are only going to see only
35mbps data rate on link that's just a mile apart; further you go
the less bandwidth you will have.
Other then that, I agree they are nice radios and even include
heaters in them to help maintain temperatures above freezing during
winter time so that ice buildup doesn't cause a problem.

At least for now, it's pretty well accepted that basic servers like DNS, SMTP, IMAP, HTTP proxies, etc. MUST be dual-stacked for the duration of the transition. Even if your clients are IPv6-only, they can still resolve hostnames, send mail, surf the web, etc. to sites that are IPv4-only via those few servers. Generic, scalable solutions would be better rather than protocol-specific proxies of course, and the IETF is working on that angle, but in the meantime it'll allow the most common client-server protocols to keep working and get some experience with IPv6. Also, keep in mind that the vast majority of folks out there still can't get native IPv6 transit from their upstreams and may not be willing to trust free tunnel brokers with production traffic to their servers. Even if they can, most eyeballs trying to hit them are still IPv4-only and the few IPv6 eyeballs can be assumed to have proxies since otherwise they couldn't see 99.% of the Internet. This is what it looks like before critical mass is achieved.

"Resolves through IPv6" implies a mixture of IPv6 transport and RRSet availability. To add some more details, you need: - records in your hints file, so you can complete a useful priming query - glue in the zones being followed to answer your questions, from the root down - all NS sets above every zone cut to include at least one reachable nameserver that can be queried using IPv6 transport - the resources you're ultimately looking for to have records (assuming your goal is to find an address) Some time ago I checked the ORG and INFO registries and discovered that the number of host objects there with IPv6 address attributes was very small.

Hi Steve, An IPv6 only device can "hit" your server if all the DNS hierachy resolves through IPv6. It works the same way as in IPv4.
