They could have rerouted traffic instead of blackholing all of Level3.


And what message would that send? Did you expect Cogent to jsut take it in 
the chin, and accept the fate LEvel3 dictated?

I disagree.

Level3 could have bandwidth limited Cogent, instead of depeering Cogent.

Cogent did what they had to do. The message was loud and clear, and 
successful. That Cogent would not accept being bullied.

Whoever caused it; Cogent is the one that made it painful for the entire 
internet. They could have rerouted traffic instead of blackholing all of 
Level3. The fact that they offered free transit to Level3 customers only 
shows their intent to send a message to Level3 et al.

I disagree.

This was a peering contract dispute. I imagine Level3 was within their 
rights to cancel the contract otherwise we would have seen a lawsuit. If 
you read this peering contracts it is quite specific as to the rules of 
the game. They state that the peering relationship can be terminated for 
not satisfying the requirements of the peering policy. In Cogent's case, 
that is almost always the ratio requirement.



Level3 could have bandwidth limited Cogent, instead of depeering Cogent.

That would have put Level3 in default of the peering contract most 
likely. At least, when we enter into peering contract the speed is 
specified.


Cogent did what they had to do. The message was loud and clear, and 
successful. That Cogent would not accept being bullied.


I don't think it was. Folks that were single-homed lost business and 
learned not to rely on Cogent. The folks who had learned that lesson the 
last time around felt satisfied with their anti-Cogent bias. Level3 got 
Cogent to do what they wanted.


Ultimately, today Cogent's peering is worse than it was before the 
Level3 dispute.

[WISPA] iPhone

2007-10-02 Thread Travis Johnson

Hi,

About a week ago I decided to buy an iPhone off ebay (brand new) to play 
with... I wasn't planning on keeping it as my phone, but wanted to play 
to see what all the hype was about. We don't have ATT service in our 
area, so once the phone arrived I had to hack it to use Edge Wireless 
(a subsidiary of ATT/Cingular in our area, but not with iPhone 
support). After several hours, I got everything working... and I have to 
say I am keeping the phone!


This is the coolest phone I have ever seen. The web browser is actually 
usable. You can listen to your music, look at pictures, check your 
email, etc. all on a beautiful touch screen. Everything is so easy to 
use and very responsive. It really is quite the phone compared with 
everything else I have looked at. Apple has done a great job for a first 
generation phone.


Just wanted to share my $.02 worth. :)

I read somewhere that you don't want to perform the latest Update from
Apple with a hacked IPhone.  Something about the update can break the
hacked phones.  Of course Apple says the update has no intention of doing
so...yah right!

Quick search came up with this:

When your Rep @  xyz company says they have applied for FCC clearance
and expect type certification to be completed within 2-3 weeks, I would
say thats pretty good info, you are correct that I probably should  
take the time to
verify everything they have stated- and I do agree I should have  
qualified

that within my original response. Anyways, sorry to bother.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix

2007-10-02 Thread Tom DeReggi
Most cable and DSL contracts give providers 30 days to fix an outage, 
without gross neglaence or financial compensation, when you read the fine 
print.
But I can tell you that after 3 days, its living hell for both parties if 
its not involved, regardless of what the contract says.


You can now argue that ILECs aren't legally required to provide to deliver 
Network Neutrality practices to third parties, but they are still expected, 
and when they aren't the Press has a field day.


My point is that there are always two things in place. 1) A legal agreement, 
meant to protect the intities, and then 2) the expectations that someone 
has for the future of the relationship.
Legal agreements are handled in court.  Expectations (whether they are 
reached or not) are handled via social pressure.  With the exception of 
maybe a Lawyer, the public almost always puts a higher value on what is 
right and wrong with little regard for what a legal agreement says. That is 
why MANY legal agreements get revised after the fact, pre/post a dispute, to 
reassess the terms to match new expectations of both parties.


That would have put Level3 in default of the peering contract most likely. 
At least, when we enter into peering contract the speed is specified.


Thats a good point. But not necessarilly. Level3 claimed to have given 
Cogent multiple notices that they were going to de-peer them. Level3 had 
fair right to legally cancel the peering agreement, and give statement that 
it was effectively cancelled. Just because they Legally cancelled the 
peering agreement didn't mean that they had to technically de-peer. After 
the fact they could have just bandwidth managed, to force the ratios, to 
minimize the impact to Cogent and Level3 customers.


The truth is there was no more guilty party. This was a Wild West, 15 
round Prize fight, Showdown. Two parties trying to prove and learn who was 
stronger. It takes two to showdown.


This is event is one of the more well know peering disputes today. It opened 
the eyes at the FCC relating to NetNeutrality. And it has all the other 
Tier1 providers using it as a historical record of what would happen. I also 
believe it indirectly prevented other similar re-occurrances.


Folks that were single-homed lost business and learned not to rely on 
Cogent.


Fully agree. We felt it big, and still feel it today, from customer 
perception. It wasn't a win for anyone.
But Level3 also felt it big, I know alot of Level3 web hosts that now have 
redundant circuits with Cogent.
It was also Level3, that downsized and discontinued alots of their dealers 
this past year, possibly a side effect of lost market share, from this type 
dispute.
Level3 undisputedly knowingly caused harm to Cogent customers by their 
actions.
Level3's reputation was heavilly tarnished because of it as an ego driven, 
no remorse, bad guy, regardless of whether they had juste cause for their 
de-peering.


Ultimately, today Cogent's peering is worse than it was before the Level3 
dispute.


I'm not sure that is true.  And if it were, I'd argue, its not related, as 
the Level3 insodent caused damage in areas relating to customers perception, 
not peering.


Whether Cogent has or doesn't have good peering is a totally different 
topic.

And what message would that send? Did you expect Cogent to jsut take it 
in the chin, and accept the fate LEvel3 dictated?

I disagree.

This was a peering contract dispute. I imagine Level3 was within their 
rights to cancel the contract otherwise we would have seen a lawsuit. If 
you read this peering contracts it is quite specific as to the rules of 
the game. They state that the peering relationship can be terminated for 
not satisfying the requirements of the peering policy. In Cogent's case, 
that is almost always the ratio requirement.



Level3 could have bandwidth limited Cogent, instead of depeering Cogent.

That would have put Level3 in default of the peering contract most likely. 
At least, when we enter into peering contract the speed is specified.


Cogent did what they had to do. The message was loud and clear, and 
successful. That Cogent would not accept being bullied.


I don't think it was. Folks that were single-homed lost business and 
learned not to rely on Cogent. The folks who had learned that lesson the 
last time around felt satisfied with their anti-Cogent bias. Level3 got 
Cogent to do what they wanted.


Ultimately, today Cogent's peering is worse than it was before the Level3 
dispute.

Re: [WISPA] iPhone

2007-10-02 Thread Tom DeReggi

I'm interested in more feedback.

Cool for you as the CEO? or cool as a future phone for your techs?
I was considering getting one, for the awesome screen, but was concerned 
about its missing features.

Am I correct that it will not support GPS or Camera?


You can listen to your music


Do you really want to be doing that, wasting your battery life?
How is the battery life?
And not hearing the phone ring, because of it?
Or does the ringer overide the music, to enable hearing it?

Can you load an SSH client on it, like Putty?

We know the full screen is clearly a winner.
But how is the keypad?

I really like the large keys on the slideout keyboards, on alternative 
palmtop WindowCe style phones.

Hi,

About a week ago I decided to buy an iPhone off ebay (brand new) to play 
with... I wasn't planning on keeping it as my phone, but wanted to play to 
see what all the hype was about. We don't have ATT service in our area, 
so once the phone arrived I had to hack it to use Edge Wireless (a 
subsidiary of ATT/Cingular in our area, but not with iPhone support). 
After several hours, I got everything working... and I have to say I am 
keeping the phone!


This is the coolest phone I have ever seen. The web browser is actually 
usable. You can listen to your music, look at pictures, check your email, 
etc. all on a beautiful touch screen. Everything is so easy to use and 
very responsive. It really is quite the phone compared with everything 
else I have looked at. Apple has done a great job for a first generation 
phone.


Just wanted to share my $.02 worth. :)

Hi folks,

So how many of you using it have experienced the DFS2 kicking in? I am
curious because we are not getting many reports where radars are forcing
the radios to vacate and move to another channel.

We are getting asked this a lot of late since we released our 5.4 PMP,
but so far we don't see the radars much. IF you have a story, please
indicate if you are rural, rural coastal, etc.

Also how about 5.3 GHz. DFS2 is now mandatory there but I don't think we

Re: [WISPA] 5.4 GHz ?

2007-10-02 Thread Zachery Wolfinger

Well, since you asked ;-)

We tried to deploy an Alvarion 5.4GHz B100 link in Indianapolis.  DFS2 
kicked in big time.  To the point that the radios shut down all 
frequencies and would not communicate with each other.  Sitting in the 
lab they worked fine.  It's possible that at least one side is hearing 
the radar from the Indy airport, but on all frequencies?


We pulled the link down and put it back in the lab.  Mike Cowan from 
Wireless Connections remoted in and check it out but didn't see any 
issues.  We are getting ready to deploy these back out to the tower 
sites so he can see what they are doing in the field.

Is that the same Link Jim had problems with every once in while after dark?
We figured they must have been testing the new top secret aircraft..

 Hi folks,

 So how many of you using it have experienced the DFS2 kicking in? I am
 curious because we are not getting many reports where radars are  
 forcing
 the radios to vacate and move to another channel.

 We are getting asked this a lot of late since we released our 5.4 PMP,
 but so far we don't see the radars much. IF you have a story, please
 indicate if you are rural, rural coastal, etc.

 Also how about 5.3 GHz. DFS2 is now mandatory there but I don't  
 think we
 have any case where those found a radar.

 Thanks,

Re: [WISPA] iPhone

2007-10-02 Thread Travis Johnson

Tom,

It's just plain cool. I had a Palm Treo 650 before. We use SMS more than 
anything else... it's how we talk to our techs and installers, it's how 
we get alerts, it's how I talk to my family (wife and kids), etc. so 
that part was very critical for me... and the Treo was the only phone 
before that made it very easy to send and receive messages... one button 
and you were into the most recent list of SMS talkers, one click on 
their name and you had the full conversation since it began. The iPhone 
is the same way. I send and receive about 1500-2000 text messages per 
month on my phone, so that was #1 priority.


The next issue was having a web browser that was actually usable... by 
usable I mean something that you would WANT to use to check news, alert 
systems, etc. while sitting at lunch, etc. It works very, very well for 
that.


It has a built in camera that is better than the Treo, but not awesome. 
It's a camera built in to a phone, what do you expect? I think it's 
rated at 2MP. No current GPS support.


Battery life so far is very impressive (considering WiFi is left on all 
the time). I am getting about 2 full days of use per charge.


The keyboard is a little strange to get used to, but then it's pretty 
good. It does auto correction on the mis-typed words, and seems to work 
pretty well.


It's also a full-blown iPod... same connector (so everything iPod works) 
and a very nice, easy to use interface.


The idea, as Steve Jobs mentioned, is that I now have 1 device that has 
everything I need all in one. Is it a laptop replacement? No. Is it a 
techie's dream phone for hacking, SSH, etc... probably not. But it's 
small and thin enough that it fits in my front pocket on my Levi's, and 
keeps me 100% connected to my network and the Net.

I'm interested in more feedback.

Cool for you as the CEO? or cool as a future phone for your techs?
I was considering getting one, for the awesome screen, but was 
concerned about its missing features.

Am I correct that it will not support GPS or Camera?


You can listen to your music


Do you really want to be doing that, wasting your battery life?
How is the battery life?
And not hearing the phone ring, because of it?
Or does the ringer overide the music, to enable hearing it?

Can you load an SSH client on it, like Putty?

We know the full screen is clearly a winner.
But how is the keypad?

I really like the large keys on the slideout keyboards, on alternative 
palmtop WindowCe style phones.

Hi,

About a week ago I decided to buy an iPhone off ebay (brand new) to 
play with... I wasn't planning on keeping it as my phone, but wanted 
to play to see what all the hype was about. We don't have ATT 
service in our area, so once the phone arrived I had to hack it to 
use Edge Wireless (a subsidiary of ATT/Cingular in our area, but not 
with iPhone support). After several hours, I got everything 
working... and I have to say I am keeping the phone!


This is the coolest phone I have ever seen. The web browser is 
actually usable. You can listen to your music, look at pictures, 
check your email, etc. all on a beautiful touch screen. Everything is 
so easy to use and very responsive. It really is quite the phone 
compared with everything else I have looked at. Apple has done a 
great job for a first generation phone.


Just wanted to share my $.02 worth. :)

Yup, and the channels listed there are not in the 5.4 range.
 But part of the frequency it does support has a DFS

RE: [WISPA] 5.4 GHz ?

2007-10-02 Thread Brad Belton
This doesn't come as a surprise.  We deployed a couple VL units and they
were all but shut down due to a less than ideal RF environment.  Countless
hours over days if not weeks with Alvarion's finest in an effort to remedy
the situation were unsuccessful.

Reflecting back on our particular scenario it was pretty interesting to see
how poorly they handled peak business hours when interfering RF activity was
high.  The radios would then speed up as hostile RF became less active
allowing more airtime for the VL to TX  RX.  This was arguably one of the
more miserable events of our company's entire existence.  sigh

That said it is fair to say, if the RF is clean the VL radios will scream.  

Best,


Brad

Ps. I'll be bracing for Patrick's attempts to discredit me for opting out of
Alvarion's $1000 class.  grin

Well, since you asked ;-)

We tried to deploy an Alvarion 5.4GHz B100 link in Indianapolis.  DFS2 
kicked in big time.  To the point that the radios shut down all 
frequencies and would not communicate with each other.  Sitting in the 
lab they worked fine.  It's possible that at least one side is hearing 
the radar from the Indy airport, but on all frequencies?

We pulled the link down and put it back in the lab.  Mike Cowan from 
Wireless Connections remoted in and check it out but didn't see any 
issues.  We are getting ready to deploy these back out to the tower 
sites so he can see what they are doing in the field.

 We are getting asked this a lot of late since we released our 5.4 PMP,

Subject: Re: [WISPA] iPhone

Tom,

It's just plain cool. I had a Palm Treo 650 before. We use SMS more than 
anything else... it's how we talk to our techs and installers, it's how 
we get alerts, it's how I talk to my family (wife and kids), etc. so 
that part was very critical for me... and the Treo was the only phone 
before that made it very easy to send and receive messages... one button 
and you were into the most recent list of SMS talkers, one click on 
their name and you had the full conversation since it began. The iPhone 
is the same way. I send and receive about 1500-2000 text messages per 
month on my phone, so that was #1 priority.

The next issue was having a web browser that was actually usable... by 
usable I mean something that you would WANT to use to check news, alert 
systems, etc. while sitting at lunch, etc. It works very, very well for 
that.

It has a built in camera that is better than the Treo, but not awesome. 
It's a camera built in to a phone, what do you expect? I think it's 
rated at 2MP. No current GPS support.

Battery life so far is very impressive (considering WiFi is left on all 
the time). I am getting about 2 full days of use per charge.

The keyboard is a little strange to get used to, but then it's pretty 
good. It does auto correction on the mis-typed words, and seems to work 
pretty well.

It's also a full-blown iPod... same connector (so everything iPod works) 
and a very nice, easy to use interface.

The idea, as Steve Jobs mentioned, is that I now have 1 device that has 
everything I need all in one. Is it a laptop replacement? No. Is it a 
techie's dream phone for hacking, SSH, etc... probably not. But it's 
small and thin enough that it fits in my front pocket on my Levi's, and 
keeps me 100% connected to my network and the Net.

 You can listen to your music

 Do you really want to be doing that, wasting your battery life?
 How is the battery life?
 And not hearing the phone ring, because of it?
 Or does the ringer overide the music, to enable hearing it?

 Can you load an SSH client on it, like Putty?

 We know the full screen is clearly a winner.
 But how is the keypad?

 I really like the large keys on the slideout keyboards, on alternative

 Hi,

 About a week ago I decided to buy an iPhone off ebay (brand new) to 
 play with... I wasn't planning on keeping it as my phone, but wanted 
 to play to see what all the hype was about. We don't have ATT 
 service in our area, so once the phone arrived I had to hack it to 
 use Edge Wireless (a subsidiary of ATT/Cingular in our area, but not 
 with iPhone support). After several hours, I got everything 
 working... and I have to say I am keeping the phone!

 This is the coolest phone I have ever seen. The web browser is 
 actually usable. You can listen to your music, look at pictures, 
 check your email, etc. all on a beautiful touch screen. Everything is 
 so easy to use and very responsive. It really is quite the phone 
 compared with everything else I have looked at. Apple has done a 
 great job for a first generation phone.

 Just wanted to share my $.02 worth. :)

RE: [WISPA] 5.4 GHz ?

2007-10-02 Thread Brad Belton
Hello Gino,

Well, I don't want to be accused of hijacking a thread and morphing it into
an advertisement for another brand, but IMO a radio without a CSMA
mechanism, with software controlled dual polarity and with a RX threshold
would most likely perform better in a hostile RF environment.  At least
that's been our experience...

Going forward we are favoring licensed PtP links over UL for high value
clients.  For example we are deploying the first of hopefully several 80GHz
1.25Gbps links for a client in the next week or two.  Should be fun to align
with 2' antennas!  grin

Best,


Brad

RE: [WISPA] 5.4 GHz ?

2007-10-02 Thread Patrick Leary
What a load of garbage. Brad resisted our help at every turn. I was on
some of the calls and I personally made a site visit. I even had some of
our engineers calling me to ask for my help to get Brad to work with
them because he would not call them back and/or refused suggestions or
offers of help. Brad repeatedly turned down offers for our guys to come
out. From day 1 Brad wanted his consulting customer to go the Trango
route (Brad is one of their first customers from back in the Sunstream
days) and he did everything in his power to sabotage the effort. We
learned that soon enough to the point where I told our guys to stop
making any effort; it did not matter what we could do to help, because
it was going to be rail-roaded. Even the company he was consulting for
recognized it. We eventually simply had to give up.

While I respect his loyalty to his favorite brand, I tire of the
disingenuous junk you put out there...followed by the goofy e-smiles you
try to insert to say you are only kidding. Leave it to you to turn a
thread about DFS2 kicking in being somehow indicative that our radios
are failing. 

Brad, if I said the sky was blue, you'd say it was green just for the
sake of argument. Congratulations on being the Judd Dare of 2006-2007. 

Patrick

 Hi folks,

 So how many of you using it have experienced the DFS2 kicking in? I am
 curious because we are not getting many reports where radars are
forcing
 the radios to vacate and move to another channel. 

 We are getting asked this a lot of late since we released our 5.4 PMP,
 but so far we don't see the radars much. IF you have a story, please
 indicate if you are rural, rural coastal, etc.

 Also how about 5.3 GHz. DFS2 is now mandatory there but I don't think
we
 have any case where those found a radar.

What a load of garbage. Brad resisted our help at every turn. I was on
some of the calls and I personally made a site visit. I even had some of
our engineers calling me to ask for my help to get Brad to work with
them because he would not call them back and/or refused suggestions or
offers of help. Brad repeatedly turned down offers for our guys to come
out. From day 1 Brad wanted his consulting customer to go the Trango
route (Brad is one of their first customers from back in the Sunstream
days) and he did everything in his power to sabotage the effort. We
learned that soon enough to the point where I told our guys to stop
making any effort; it did not matter what we could do to help, because
it was going to be rail-roaded. Even the company he was consulting for
recognized it. We eventually simply had to give up.

While I respect his loyalty to his favorite brand, I tire of the
disingenuous junk you put out there...followed by the goofy e-smiles you
try to insert to say you are only kidding. Leave it to you to turn a
thread about DFS2 kicking in being somehow indicative that our radios
are failing. 

Brad, if I said the sky was blue, you'd say it was green just for the
sake of argument. Congratulations on being the Judd Dare of 2006-2007.

This doesn't come as a surprise.  We deployed a couple VL units and they
were all but shut down due to a less than ideal RF environment.
Countless
hours over days if not weeks with Alvarion's finest in an effort to
remedy
the situation were unsuccessful.

Reflecting back on our particular scenario it was pretty interesting to
see
how poorly they handled peak business hours when interfering RF activity
was
high.  The radios would then speed up as hostile RF became less active
allowing more airtime for the VL to TX  RX.  This was arguably one of
the
more miserable events of our company's entire existence.  sigh

That said it is fair to say, if the RF is clean the VL radios will
scream.  

Best,

Ps. I'll be bracing for Patrick's attempts to discredit me for opting

Alvarion's $1000 class.  grin

Well, since you asked ;-)

We tried to deploy an Alvarion 5.4GHz B100 link in Indianapolis.  DFS2 
kicked in big time.  To the point that the radios shut down all 
frequencies and would not communicate with each other.  Sitting in the 
lab they worked fine.  It's possible that at least one side is hearing 
the radar from the Indy airport, but on all frequencies?

We pulled the link down and put it back in the lab.  Mike Cowan from

RE: [WISPA] 5.4 GHz ?

2007-10-02 Thread Brad Belton
A quick email search comes up with dozens of emails with several subjects
spread out over several months all relating to this link.  

How about your 5-17-06 email?  How about Keith Edmonds (Alvarion Engineer)
5-26-06 email or should I say emails?   Skip ahead through dozens of emails
between Keith Edwards, Bob Neiman, you, Les Sparrey, me, Richard and then
check the Alvarion support emails on 8-10-06. 

Yah, it certainly supports your assertion that I was trying to sabotage the
link servicing MY client!  It certainly looks like I was just letting the VL
project die on the vine all the while expending considerable effort to
salvage the client relationship.

Geeshh...give me a break!

Absolute mistruths.  Should I start posting emails between Alvarion
engineers and me?  I still have all the surveys...one after another and
another

Your site visit was to a meeting on the other side of town before the gear
was even deployed!  Lol!

The client was my client not the third party!  Why would I want to sabatoge
my own client?!?  Get a grip Patrick!

Amazing.

[WISPA] A Reminder about personal attacks on list

2007-10-02 Thread Jack Unger
May I remind the two gentlemen who are now attacking each other over the 
performance of Alvarion 5.4 GHz equipment and the deployment thereof 
that WISPA does NOT approve of personal attacks on-list.


If the two of you feel you must persist in attacking each other (and the 
attacks appear to be mutual at this point) then PLEASE take it off list. 
Our list members DO NOT appreciate this behavior on-list.


Respectfully,
 jack

[WISPA] Long Distance StarOS links

2007-10-02 Thread Matt Larsen - Lists

Hi all,

Today we finished replacing our long Trango links with StarOS links, 
WAR-4 boards running version 3 of StarOS - hooked up to 4' Radiowaves 
dishes.  


Here are the results:

42 mile shot
10mhz channel size
-58 signal strength
10-12meg throughput

62 mile shot
10mhz channel size
-60 signal strength
8-10meg throughput

I am fairly happy with the links, and they are pushing about double what 
our Trango Tlink-10 radios were able to handle.  I thought they would be 
able to deliver a little bit higher speed, but it doesn't look like I'm 
going to be able to get any more out of them.   If only I had sprung for 
the dual polarity feedhorns, I would be able to put two radios on each 
side and test the full duplex performance of StarOS on these links.   
I'm guessing that the full duplex shots would be in the 30-40 meg range 
in both directions since they would not have to deal with the mileage 
issues. 

What is really amazing to me is the signal strength.   These are the 
only two links where we use the 4' dishes, and they are the strongest 
backhaul signals that we have on our network, even though they are the 
longest.  I know that the 2x cloaking is part of that, but it still 
blows me away.
