[WISPA] Fort Lauderdale Service Request
Can anyone provide fixed wireless to 1535 South Perimeter Road, Fort Lauderdale? The client is looking at an LTE to Ethernet option from ATT, but there must be some catches with that. Symmetrical or near symmetrical 4mbit+ service needed. ___ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless

Client receive levels ranged from -61 to -75.

Client receive levels ranged from -64 to -78. So essentially by adding a 4 way splitter the clients receive levels increased by about 3.5-4dB. Tower receive levels were unchanged, as most of the clients were power leveled down. Only one client is transmitting at full power now. That client is also the highest signal on both sides. Most client transmit levels are also running at a higher power now as well. Conclusion: I think that running 1 x 320AP x 4 sectors through splitters is a little aggressive. If the majority of your clients are going to have decent signal levels, then I see no problems with it. However, I think that our current situation is a little on the edge. I think that if you are looking for an inexpensive way to use 320AP's, I would recommend this solution. I think that this solution has a higher net gain over using an 8dB omni. My results show that it is pretty consistent on being about a total loss of about 8dB using a 4 way splitter. You can overcome 6.1dB of that loss in turning up the transmit power of the radios. Your net loss is about 2.5-3dB, however you are able to focus the sectors a little better. In the long run on future deployments, we will likely use 2 AP's and 4 sectors with 4x2way splitters (MIMO). Once they reach capacity, we'll add additional AP's. Regards, Chuck WISPA Wants You! Join today! http://signup.wispa.org/ WISPA Wireless List:

We're thinking of installing everything in a 1.5 ft. diameter thickwall steel pipe, and installing our required 5.8Ghz panel antenna flush with the end of the pipe, covered with a 2 thick piece of polycarbonate or acrylic. The link only needs to work at a distance of around 150 feet. However I can't find much info on-line about the RF attentuation of clear plastic materials (or if it's even enough to matter) at 5.8Ghz. Anyone out here ever had to do something like this? Put the stuff in a microwave. If it warms up, it'll attenuate the signal, if it stays cold, you have a perfectly RF transparent material.

Cisco 3550 (enterprise OS ver) was an industry standard Gig router that also did OSPF and BGP, although now End of Lifed.. It was easy and affordable to find on used market. It didn't support newer things like MPLS packet sizes and such. However, I thought the 3560 was actually a newer model but also a scaled down version of the 3550 router. Either having less processing power or RAM limits. Therefore not very advantageous to get a 3560. I then thought the 3750 (enterprise OS ver) switch was the current day product equivellent to the 3550 spec, good for BGP and OSPF, but better, for example using the smaller FC iconnectors nstead of SC connectors, and possibly support of newer Cisco supported protocols also. So my question is Is the 3560 really an equivellent of a 3750 minus stackwise? Correct on the stacking. The 3750 and 3560 are the exact same switch, but one has stacking capabilities. You can turn a 3560/3750 in to a full blown router, OSPF, BGP etc, but you aren't going to hold any external BGP tables, for sure. Loading different SDM templates will give you up to eight routed interfaces. The 3550 is getting really old now, and technically has a lower powered processor than the 3560, but does do a better job of doing ingress/egress limiting on switchports. WISPA Wants You!

Ordinarly I'd just use a conventional setup with a pair of 2' dish antennas and XR5 radios, but am considering using dual-polarity feedhorns (or even separate dishes) and diversity or dual radios due to the water. Is this worth the effort, or should we just use e.g. horizontal polarity and stick to it? Since the one end is much higher than the other I'm thinking this should mitigate water effects, but would welcome any opinions. Eight miles over water shouldn't be a problem at all. WISPA Wants You!

I can attach those public addresses directly to the riverstone and they work
fine. However if I attach them to the mikrotik they get advertised over OSPF
and have local connectivity, but they stop at the border router on a
traceroute. However, if you ping a device using one of those addresses from
an external network, you get a response. So I'm missing something to make the
route bi-directional, if that's the right term.
This is what I have in the Riverstone:
325 : ip add route default gateway provider gateway IP
362 : ip-router policy redistribute from-proto static to-proto ospf network
default
363 : ip-router policy redistribute from-proto direct to-proto ospf network
all
365 : ospf create area backbone
367 : ospf add interface WISP-201 to-area backbone
368 : ospf start
Can you paste `ip route print` and `routing ospf neighbors print` from
the Mikrotik, and whatever the Riverstone's equal is?

I have spent the last three months researching the possibility of putting on a show and evaluating our options. Before I started on that process, I felt the same way that you do about WISPA putting on our own show. I thought that it would be some work, but doable, and had some potential as a fund raiser. What was truly eye opening to me is the amount of work that is needed to put a show on properly. IMHO, WISPCON got lucky on the first show and then it degraded when the organizational and sales efforts did not scale up to the potential of the show. The market is quite different right now, and I don't think that we would be as lucky as P-15 was back in the day. Ed's group puts on trade shows - that is their focus. They are willing to do it at no cost to us, and to help us build our membership up so that both sides will benefit. They don't know much about the WISP business, so we have an opportunity to work with them to design a show that our members would all like to go to.They are going to do it on a much larger scale than what we had planned on doing, so we can spread WISPAs message beyond our own little community.Those are strong positives. Most importantly, we will not have to commit our money or manpower to the project.Money is not that big of a deal, but manpower is.We will not be able to put on a show with volunteer manpower, and it isn't really a question of just hiring someone because the job requirements go far beyond just being an ED type or a sales person. These guys have a staff of people who specialize in this kind of work and can get it done more effectively and at a larger scale than we could ever dream of doing on our own. All this being said - if the show is a flop, there will be an out so that we can go back to plan A next year if that is what needs to happen. For 2010, it makes more sense to work with professionals to get a show put on. Matt Larsen vistabeam.com Marlon K. Schafer wrote: forwarding to the list. Matt/Forbes, can someone please set the list to reply to the list rather than to the sender? Thanks, Matt, understood. I'd disagree with that plan of action though. We need our own show. It should be a fund raiser for WISPA. Near as I can tell Ed's planning on more of an ISPCon type of a show. I believe we need more of a WISPCon kind of event. Lower cost, more intimate etc. I'd suggest that we step back and set a show date for later in the year. It shouldn't take more than a few months to put something together. We know who the vendors and attendees would be. And we know, basically, what would need to be presented. The members want a show. The vendors want a show. Someone just has to DO a show.

Re: [WISPA] Anyone ever mount gear on flagpole style tower?
When are you writing you how to mount anything on anything book? We have the Jack Unger book, and the Mikrotik book, you must add yourself to this elite group :-) On 1/12/10, lakel...@gbcx.net lakel...@gbcx.net wrote: Ok. There is no way to service or install equipment on a stealth pole without a manlift or crane with a basket The pole is a spindle design inside. Picture a solid pipe *axel with two solid round wheels one on each end. Now take the whole assembly and stand it on end. Now stack several of them and put them at the top of a standard open monopole. There are cable ports cut in the wheels so the cabling can run thru the sections. The sections are wrapped in polyethelyne (or similar) covers usually 2 to 4 per level. They are held in by bolts or special latches. Now the warning.. As a contractor I mark all my jobs up an additional 50% when working on a stealth flagpole. The suck to work on. You need two guys to remove a cover MINIMUM. They don't have handles so they are very hard to handle. The slightest wind can make removal or install super difficult if not impossible. There have been times where we needed to return a day or two later to put covers on when the weather calmed down. They don't line up correctly when reinstalling them. You need a large narrow awl or HD screwdriver for leverage. The covers are VERY expensive. The cheapest one I have seen is $2K and they crack and break real easy even though they are 1/2 or so thick. On older poles they can be as much as $5K. If you are located on a level below cell carriers you may be in trouble. When installing cell cabling in a monopole a capstan is used. The cable can get hung up on your CAT5 cabling and tear it out or damage it. Your radios, antennas and mounts need to be rugged and withstand physical jarring. Your cable needs to be well restrained. This is not the site to go cheap on the install. When installing on one of these sites you need to keep an open mind and consider everything especially the unknown. Personally I would walk away.

Re: [WISPA] How to block p2p traffic in public Wi-Fi hotspot?
2010/1/11 Marlon K. Schafer o...@odessaoffice.com: Hiya Roman, We bill per bit. That way we don't care what the customer is doing, all we're worried about is how much they uses. Run edonkey and you'll get an extra bill. Download Netflix and you'll get an extra bill etc. MOST of the time we catch virus's for our customers. It's actually a pretty good sales tool. Netflix is changing that somewhat though. marlon That is a very hard sell for transient hotspot users. You'd probably have close to 100% chargebacks for the customers who get an extra bill.

[WISPA] Ubnt and OSPF
I'm having issues with OSPF (Mikrotik) traversing an Airmax sector. Network consists of a Routerboard running 4.1, connected to a Rocket sector running XM.v5.1. Client radio is a Nanostation also running XM.v5.1, connected to a Routerboard running 4.2. The first routerboard has a number of ospf neighbors on the same interface the Rocket is connected to (there is a switch between the physical interface and the Rocket) but when a neighbor relationship is established over the UBNT link, strange things happen. Running a traceroute to the loopback address of the MT results in a routing loop, with the Nanostation showing up as a L3 hop. I have yet to do a packet dump, but my guess is that somehow the UBNT radio is mangling the OSPF multicast traffic and inserting itself in to the path. The notes on the UBNT forum regarding OSPF seem to indicate that enabling multicast forwarding on the radio is all that is required. See below for the MT OSPF config. /routing ospf instance set default comment= disabled=no distribute-default=never in-filter=ospf-in metric-bgp=20 metric-connected=20 metric-default=1 metric-other-ospf=\ auto metric-rip=20 metric-static=20 name=default out-filter=ospf-out redistribute-bgp=no redistribute-connected=no redistribute-other-ospf=no \ redistribute-rip=no redistribute-static=no router-id=10.254.12.3 /routing ospf area set backbone area-id=0.0.0.0 comment= disabled=no instance=default name=backbone type=default add area-id=0.0.0.1 comment= disabled=no instance=default name=1 type=default /routing ospf interface add authentication=md5 authentication-key=secret authentication-key-id=1 comment= cost=10 dead-interval=40s disabled=no hello-interval=10s \ instance-id=0 interface=wlan1 network-type=broadcast passive=no priority=1 retransmit-interval=5s transmit-delay=1s add authentication=md5 authentication-key=secret authentication-key-id=1 comment= cost=10 dead-interval=40s disabled=no hello-interval=10s \ instance-id=0 interface=ether1 network-type=broadcast passive=no priority=1 retransmit-interval=5s transmit-delay=1s /routing ospf network add area=1 comment= disabled=no network=10.0.0.0/8 WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Baby, it's cold out there! Bullet5M has the flu.
2010/1/6 Robert West robert.w...@just-micro.com: Was out last night at 11:30, up on top of a grain bin trying to figure out why my network was dropping out. Using UBNT for the backhaul in this section so I was using the Ubiquiti Discovery tool. I would see NO UBNT equipment, then I'd see a few then all then none, etc. Finally traced it down to a Bullet5 M HP. The thing was in a constant reset mode but not one I'd seen before. Some of the early units (and this is an early unit) would have the reset button stuck in because of the lack of clearance around the hole that the reset button is in.. but this one, the RSSI lights were pegged to the max but that's normal on this install. I Could see the signal with my laptop but couldn't talk to the unit through the lan. I took the antenna off of it and the RSSI stayed all the way pegged. Tried to reset it, no go. Finally went down to the van, got another Bullet, replaced it and configured it all the while fighting the wind.. Shsh... took it home and when I fired it up I lost all the 5ghz signal from my other equipment in the room. Tried other channels, all gone. My guess is, the Bullet was stuck in some some sort of loop and was broadcasting all across the spectrum at once. That would explain why, out in the field, I would lose everything like a roller coaster. After about an hour of warming up I was able to reset it, flash the firmware just to be sure it wasn't a firmware issue and set it out in the cold to test it. Working fine this morning as a test unit but I've never seen one blast the entire spectrum at once. Or at least all the channels in such a quick succession. Is this the thread where we try to one up each other with the odd things that our Ubiquiti gear does? If so, I had a Nanostation talking to a Rocket, both in bridge mode, with Mikrotik's on the wired side at both ends, showing up as a hop in a traceroute. Traceroute would show other hosts on the network (correctly) then the MT on the Rocket end, then the Nanostation, and then the MT on the Nanostation end. I double and triple checked that the radios were set as bridges. WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Blackberry email problems

The calls started on Monday, and my tech determined that we had about 2000 connections a week coming from RIM, but on the 26th they stopped completely. No changes were made on our system at all that would have caused this problem. Just checking to see if anyone else has the same issues.

Re: [WISPA] Ubiquiti Bullet2HP
No, but they could have put the connectors on the bottom of the antenna, and on the bottom of the radio (where they belong!) And used a 12 piece of lmr240.

It must have been another tradeoff since the area between the rocket and the connector on the antenna is so small, you probably couldn’t bend a much thicker cable in such a tight loop.
