Re: [WISPA] Dielectric Grease
In a dusty (or bug ridden) location, dielectric on cat-5 can save you truck rolls. Often the problem does not occur for about two years, but dielectric does seem to keep the grit out of the connection. Moisture causing corrosion? I have not had many of those problems either with or without dielectric unless equipment was installed in a really poor location. That said, having a problem at the radio itself is a rarity. Having the problem at a surge is much more likely. At the radio, ants are the most common culprit for high CRCs, and even that does not happen very often.

Re: [WISPA] Wireless Orbit closing. Interested in new portal provider
Perhaps you could contact them to see about acquiring their business? Do you have contact information for them?

Now they drop the bombshell that they will be closing in 2 weeks. Who is using something they can recommend? Requirements: Work with Mikrotik hotspot. Handles multiple locations, all different with different rules, settings, login pages, etc. Handles various payment plans and time limits. Supports Authorize.net Preferably has a flat cost, not a percentage like many of them do. Nice to haves: Can support auto login by MAC Allows users to associate browserless devices with their account. Aggregates simultaneous usage against the maximum set bandwidth (ie. If limit is 6 Mbps down and they have 4 devices running, each device can't use all 6 Mbps simultaneously.) MT User Manager is not an option- doesn't do multiple portals Not sure if the one Butch Evans sells will do it, I think the portals take custom code by the author to implement/change, but I am open to looking.
