Re: [WISPA] New Deliberant radios
Deliberant is a good product with outstanding support. Yes I just put so in the field so far they work fine like the 2300 radios do. They have lot more features then the old 2300 radios did. The new units are the same thing as Ligowave gear or the Wiligear. They need to add a few features to the OS but nothing manger. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John McDowell Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2008 3:27 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] New Deliberant radios ha...that is clever On Thu, Aug 21, 2008 at 3:12 PM, Jason Hensley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey guys.

Another competitor is doing up to 2meg for $39.95... yet, when I purchased their service and did speed tests, the fastest I ever got was 500kbps.

RE: [WISPA] Deliberant vs. Tranzeo
I tested the Tranzeo back in 05 and the Deliberant 2300 in 05. I ended up going with the Deliberant 2300 radios they had more features. I have never had to RMA a Deliberant radio. The only problem is sometimes if lighting hit real close to the cpe it would knock out the nic side of the radio and 20 dollar surge protector cures that. I did RMA 1 Tranzeo and when I got it back it looked like they tied it to a rope and drug it across the road a time or 2. That I complained about to the sales rep he said send it back and they would look at it. I didn't send it back and just used it for a test cpe since it looked bet to heck. They never told me why the one I sent back went back. The one they sent me worked good if you only wanted a bridge with no qos. Caleb and Hal at Deliberant are great for support, and they do have a good product. I have the 2300 units in the field that I have not touched in almost 2 years nor changed the firmware on.

It is always about safety. I would much rather have dead equipment than dead personnel because an electrical system was not properly grounded.

Run the cat5 in a separate (metallic) pipe (rigid, EMT, Sealtite, whatever you like). Ground the bottom of the pipe. I would leave the top ungrounded, but that is: 1) personal preference (eliminates ground loops). 2) determined by which way gives you the best performance, least interference from the FM. You may want to use cat5e or cat6 as the twist is tighter, thus accepting less interference as well. Run a ground wire with the power. Even for the low current required at the top, I would probably run 14AWG or 12AWG. Lowers the inductance, may allow less noise to be induced on the power leads. Besides, 14AWG is the smallest wire you can run with a 15amp breaker. Same thing with ground loops; I would probably use a plastic box and thus isolate the power ground from the enclosure, tower, etc. One good way to do it is consult a local commercial/industrial electrician. They will know the code for your area. But they don't always understand radio and induced voltages.

Kris Twomey (even now) is selling the legal service of doing the filing for CALEA at $100 (or $125...I can't recall) for WISPA members. He charges $250 to do it for NON WISPA members. That is a direct $125 (worst case) savings. If you use this service, the real cost of a WISPA membership is $125. 2. Frank Muto sells an email filtering service (Postini) and has offered to pay for your full WISPA membership with the purchase of some level of service with him. I can't recall the specific details, but his offer makes WISPA membership absolutely free. Those are just 2 examples, both of which were posted right here on this free list. Looking from the outside it doesn't always appear that the ORG is able to uphold the code of ethics. This is mainly based off of discussions held on the freelist. I see comments from members, officers of the ORG that I feel do not uphold the above listed items from the code of ethics. I'd really like to understand what you see that makes this a true statement.

I am not saying WISPA is not doing or has not done anything for our industry. I just need some help understanding. I am not gonna sell you the organization. But I will work on answering this a little. 1. WISPA is right now working on a standard that will make CALEA safe harbor VERY INEXPENSIVE for WISPs. Not just members. This is an INDUSTRY solution. 2. WISPA has been urging WISPs to file the 477 forms, which is important because it will make us, as an industry, a larger portion of the broadband deployment in the US (statistically) as far as the government is concerned. Why is this important? Besides being the law, government is working to insure that every American has access to broadband. If we are providing that service in an area and they don't know about it, they will still work on a way to get that access available. 3. WISPA has urged (on several occasions) WISPs to file comments on various spectrum issues that would be beneficial to WISPs. WISPA has (as an organization) filed comments as well. Because we don't have the $$ to hire a lobby, this is the best effort in this regard. Now it's time to ask YOU what YOU have done for our industry. Have you filed comments on the issues that will impact your business? For the most part, over the past couple of years WISPA has. Have you filed your 477? If you're not going to join, then just don't join. Stop making excuses about what are you doing...You claim to be on the list since the beginning and you can't see what's been happening? What advantage does WISPA offer you? Give me a break. WISPA has done a LOT, considering the $$ that they have to work with. Either join or don't, but stop acting as though you need to be sold because you can't find anything on the website giving you what the value of WISPA is.

Possible to use a PC with 512 to 1 gig ram, 3.0 cpu, 2 MT RB44 ethernet boards (this would give you 8 etherports) and Mikrotik OS level 5 or 6. Does it have to be a rack mount? Or can you mount it on a shelf installed in the rack. A mini case would fit in that space. Mine is working great with a hundred + customers, it's got a 3.0 intel cpu on an asus motherboard, 512 ram, mini tower case, with 1 RB44 4 port nic card, running QOS, Firewall rules, and everything else to go with routing. No hard drive, has cd rom and the only moving part is case fan and cpu fan.
