I attended this morning's senate hearing on wireless policy (see http://commerce.senate.gov/hearings/witnesslist.cfm?id=1709) and thought that Kevin Kahn's verbal statement in support of unlicensed use of the TV white spaces was excellent. Here is a link to the written statement, which I have not read: http://commerce.senate.gov/pdf/kahn-031406.pdf. Jeannine Kenney from Consumers Union also provided a strong endorsement of unlicensed use of the TV spaces. Even the GAO's representative, JayEtta Hecker was quite supportive of the white spaces proposal. On the other hand, MSTV and PFF came out swinging against it. But it is noteworthy that none of the senators badmouthed the white spaces proposal and Senators Lautenberg, Allen, and Kerry gave it vigorous endorsements, with even Committee Chair Stevens (who has one of the two pro white spaces bills) speaking out in favor of it. The most eloquent statement was by Lautenberg. As a practical matter, the biggest task right now is to refute MSTV's detailed engineering attack on the white spaces proposals, including a point-by-point attack of NAF's Marcus, Kolodzy, Lippman paper. This was handed out to all the senators. It's also time to recognize and respond to the broadcasters' strategy of using the IEEE 802.22 standards setting body to dilute any white spaces proposal Congress or the FCC might adopt. Given the current political situation, the 802.22 standards body recommendations have become central to the broadcasters' counter attack. On the surface, 802.22 supports the FCC's white spaces proposal. But it's a crippled version of the proposal, and that appears to be the compromise the broadcasters are now gunning for. --Jim P.S. If you haven't yet, please read the comments and reply comments to the FCC's proceeding on digital TV distributed transmission systems (docket 05-312). I believe that if broadcasters are successful in expanding their interference protection from their Grade B out to their DMA lines, it will have a huge impact on how much white space would be available under 04-186. If others think my analysis is wrong, I'd welcome your feedback. J.H.

[WISPA] VPN and Router Choices?
Hello list, Im looking at setting up some VPN's and I have looked at many routers that claim ease of use. Linksys, NetGear, D-Link and so on. I was wondering if someone could tell me what is the easiest router for setup. Also, does one have to have a VPN server( i.e Windows orLinux)or does the router take place of this for remote connections. The senario I have is one central office with 2 satalite offices that connect to central. The central office having the main VPN router. I want to have the two seperate locations seen in the network neighborhood. Would this be a router to router VPN? If so what are the easiest one's to configure. Im new to the VPN world so go easy on me. :) Thanks in advance, Bo Hamilton NCOWireless.com -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/

Re: [WISPA] VPN and Router Choices?
There are a couple of ways to do this. 1. You can use hardware firewalls for site-to-site VPN. 2. You can use hardware firewalls and terminate them to a Windows or Linux server for a site-to-ste VPN. What performance level do you want? How secure does it need to be? How much bandwidth do they have? How much traffic do they want going through the tunnel?
