I probably would not even have become conscious in a serious way of CALEA without the help of WISPA. I expect our dues don't even cover your expenses for this work, so all I can say is thanks.

For example, I'd like to share this info with opencalea.org mailing list; I think it would benefit them and the larger community.

We went down with a compilation of most of the questions that people had asked on all of the lists we could find. Here are the main questions and answers as worked out between WISPs and the FBI's CALEA team. As you can see, there is NO reason to panic. There is NO data storage requirement other than what's needed to deal with the specific warrant. There is no requirement to use an expensive TTP solution etc. Heck, they won't even toss you in jail for that free open hotspot you have! I hope people sleep better after having read this. Special thanks to Mike, Eric, Martha, Brent and Marty for all of the hours and hours and hours that they have put into this doc. Not to mention the money and time they put into the trip to Virginia! Great job guys (and gal), many many thanks. The deadline to be compliant is coming up in May. There are a couple of mechanisms that look like they'll allow you guys to be compliant very quickly and without going broke in the process. Image Stream has been deeply involved with this and a couple of other efforts that WISPA is working on in regards to CALEA. As is Butch Evens. Both have solutions that should work for folks if you get a warrant issued before the rest of the things we're working on are finished up. I'll release more info on what we're doing at the association level as soon as I can. Please know though, we have some very bright people deeply involved in things related to CALEA and it's impact on our businesses. The next phases will take several months though. Sincerely, Marlon K.

RE: [WISPA] Wireless ISP's
Where people often screw up with sales and marketing is thinking that it's a one-size-fits-all type of approach One of the key drivers behind any sales and marketing effort is the identification of your target customer base You'll have a MUCH different approach and strategy if you're selling $29 connections vs. $199 connections vs. $999 connections Here's a curious little tidbit -- a lot of you guys probably know that I'm currently in the distribution business, I sell cheap simple stuff (Mikrotik, Pigtails, etc) and expensive complicated stuff (Licensed Backhauls, Softswitches, Enterprise WiFi systems)...I train my sales people differently depending on their role and/or account focus... Regarding sales, a lot of emphasis is put on closing techniques and objection handling -- however, we have found that these skills and not uniformly applicable across all types of sales For example...when trying to sell a $99 Mikrotik board, where the benefits are readily apparent (it does a lot of stuff really cheap), closing techniques are beneficial b/c they force a decision and shorten the sales cycle (this is an efficiency play) -- why is this helpful, well, if the prospect can't figure out how good of a deal that $99 Mikrotik is within a few minutes, he's not going to figure it out anytime soon, and it's really not worth $99 (plus keep in mind I have a 5-7% average gross profit margin) to spend hours and hours educating someone on this On the other hand, when trying to sell a $75k VoIP softswitch, where the need is customized to the particular customer, closing techniques end up losing the sale b/c the benefits are not always readily available to the customer (and $75k is a much harder and more thought out decision to make than $99 =). In this regard, we actually focus our sales training more on qualification and needs-benefit analysis to (1) determine that this is something that the customer can actually use and (2) educate the customer on how this solution can help them save money, blah blah blah Apologies for my rambling, but I'm not really a morning person, but thought I'd just throw in my 2 cents... -Charles --- WiNOG Wireless Roadshows Coming to a City Near You http://www.winog.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter R.

Maggiano's isn't the best Italian restaurant, but we have eaten at the Tampa one a number of times. It works best for groups, since you can get the family style - and bottomless dishes.

Peter, You are so right about critics and that is why I asked what your thoughts were. Thank you! As far as I know we plan to attend. Regards, Dawn DiPietro Peter R. wrote: Maggiano's isn't the best Italian restaurant, but we have eaten at the Tampa one a number of times. It works best for groups, since you can get the family style - and bottomless dishes. Remember this about reviews: People are more likely to complain than compliment. I suggested Maggiano's because it was close, relatively inexpensive, and everyone leaves full. Peter Dawn DiPietro wrote: All, Below is a link to the first review I came across on Maggiano’s Little Italy. To summarize, the restaurant critic mentions that the pasta was waterlogged and the desserts were ok but not great. Maybe he was just having a bad night. ;-) There are a couple of other Italian restaurants in the area but they are pricey. http://orlandocitybeat.metromix.com/restaurants/orlent-restaurants-dinner-maggiano-s,0,7310723.story?coll=orlnatent-rest-headlines Peter do you have any thoughts on this? Have you had a different experience with this restaurant? Regards, Dawn DiPietro Peter R. wrote: I'll take Sam's advice and pre-plan. Couple of notes: The ISPCON is at the Rosen Centre Hotel @ 9840 International Drive, Orlando, Florida 32819, not to be confused with the Rosen Plaza Hotel @ 9700 International Drive. Use Kayak.com to find your best room rate near here. There are two entertainment spots within 2 miles on International Drive: Pointe Orlando (http://www.pointeorlando.com/) and the Mercado. (There's a trolley available on International Drive, but traffic is so deep, walking can be faster). How about dinner on May 23 at Maggiano’s Little Italy? After dinner there are many bars available in the Pointe Orlando complex. (On May 24 is ISP-CEO). Why attend the show? The exhibits and the education. Lots of case studies are being lined up for this one. Hope to see you there. RSVP for the dinner so I can save a private room.

There are a couple of mechanisms that look like they'll allow you guys to be compliant very quickly and without going broke in the process. Image Stream has been deeply involved with this and a couple of other efforts that WISPA is working on in regards to CALEA. As is Butch Evens. Both have solutions that should work for folks if you get a warrant issued before the rest of the things we're working on are finished up. I'll release more info on what we're doing at the association level as soon as I can. Please know though, we have some very bright people deeply involved in things related to CALEA and it's impact on our businesses. The next phases will take several months though. Sincerely, Marlon K.

Here are the main questions and answers as worked out between WISPs and the FBI's CALEA team. As you can see, there is NO reason to panic. There is NO data storage requirement other than what's needed to deal with the specific warrant.

[WISPA] New WISPA Principal Member - Clarity Connect, Inc.
Please welcome Chuck Bartosch of Clarity Connect, Inc. He is one of many WISPs who has made the move to support our industry with his official status in WISPA as a Principal WISPA Member. Thank you Chcuk! Here is some information about our new WISPA member: Clarity Connect, Inc. started in 1995, like most of us with dialup only, but quickly added other connection options such as frame relay and dedicated T1s. Looking for ways to compete against a local telephone company, we started offering dsl commercially in August of 1996 (probably one of the first ISPs in the US to do so). We added our first wireless customer in late 1997 but didn't get serious with wireless until a couple of years ago. We now offer wireless services in southern central upstate NY and northern PA. Though this glacially abused terrain is difficult to cover well, we are currently a moderate sized WISP with about 1000 wireless customers. I'm quite impressed with the knowledge of our WISPA general list members, and can see I've got a lot to learn here. I'm even more impressed with the dedication of the leadership that numerous people provide in the organization. I look forward to investing in WISPA to aid both our growth and the success of our industry.

[WISPA] New WISPA Member - PoGoWave Communications, Inc.
The new members in WISPA are flooding in lately. We sure appreciate all this momentum. With a large portion of our industry joining forces here we will be much more effective in our efforts to lobby for regulatory and legislative efforts to help our industry. Thanks to PoGoWave and all of the members who have shown their support by paying their dues and helping out in committees, traveling to D.C. and many other efforts. Here is a little more information about PoGoWave Communications, Inc.: PogoWave Communications was formed about five years ago to serve the Internet needs of western Sonoma County wirelessly. In February 2006, there was a major change in management of PogoWave and the beginning of a more structured operation of the company. Western Sonoma County is made up largely of rugged rolling terrain, heavily forested in 100 to 150 foot redwood trees or rolling grasslands used for grazing. The main servers are located at our site on English Hill in Sebastopol, with its 150 foot tower we provide our main distribution and point-to-point transmissions to four strategically located repeater sites.

RE: [WISPA] ESSID : Free Public WiFi
This sure sounds like an urban myth. Maybe? Maybe not? I've got a bunch of laptops in my house...most just sitting on my security cams or playing Radio Bartok. When I bring one up, I see only my own SSID and a couple of my neighbors but not Free Public Wi-FI. Certainly, none have ever been visible from another. Come to think of it, I should hide my SSID...thanks. However, I have seen variants of that name as an occasional ad-hoc computer-to-computer SSID in my travels but haven't seen anything resembling the levels reflected in the newspaper blog. During conferences, such as MuniWireless last month, there were typically 100++ laptops in each conference room all locked on to either the hotel Wi-Fi or the conference-provided Wi-Fi and that name didn't show up. And, from my office, there are about 20 SSIDs visible, about 1/3 unsecured, and none with that name. If there is something weakly resembling the phenomenon related in the linked blog, wouldn't it have become more well known? But, perhaps?let's see if anyone can track it down. . . . j o n a t h a n -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Rogato Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2007 8:33 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] ESSID : Free Public WiFi Anyone see ESSID : Free Public WiFi popping up in your XP laptop in ad hoc mode?
