SAID is an arabic surname, we probably have another dimention to this that has 
not been explored yet.  Could it be discrimination?  or DHS?

 wrong, but to turn off a school district and fire CO  on that system, COME 
 ON!. You can bet the lawsuits from the school  district alone will make 
 Level 3 think twice about doing this again?.  If you have an offending 
 server, the stupid thing has an IP address,  Block it!. I would hope that 
 Level 3 has enough smarts to do this?. Even  a little guy like me knows how 
 to block an offending IP address, and I  am stupid, LOL!   Matt Liotta

RE: [WISPA] Crown Castle / Global signal

2006-10-06 Thread n7mfy


Crown castle is a tower company, and they own thousands of radio towers. It is probably very bad for little guys like us.. Probably an increase in site fees.

[WISPA] How do you market your WISP

2006-06-13 Thread n7mfy


Gentlemen;

I am in the final stages of design and have begun to guild my WISP. I was wondering what the most effective methods were for marketing?

I was thinking of using the mail, possibly arranging a demo in a parking lot, flyers, and of course adding my company name to the lists on the internet.

Scott;

I just discovered that the 'B' and the 'G' are real close together ;-)

But seriously, I feel that since we have competition from cable (COX) and DSL (QWEST)I want to get out in front on this thing. For sure though, in every crowd of QWEST/COX customers some of them will be unhappy. We have 60 to 100 miles of unimproved dirt roads. Those customers are my core, and the rest are gravy. Lee

Wow, I can hardly afford to build my WISP and yours will be guilded!!! With a gold plated WISP, why would you need to advertise? :) Seriously, my WISP, and many others, has experienced steady growth with word of mouth. I have a 4'x6' sign at one tower one a fairly rural road. Other than that it is customer satisfaction.

Are you saying Canopy will interfere, and it is more expensive,

OR

Trav wants to free up more cash to buy little plastic twinkies.

[WISPA] A little help, or 20 questions... which ever you preferr

2006-05-03 Thread n7mfy


Hey Guys;

I'm planning to use a Valemount Star OS type system in my WISP start up, and have just a few questions:

My network design uses aCisco 1750 router, Cisco 2950 switch to plug up to 4 base radio's into (Whoa ...16 antennas), Radius server, Sniffer, and a www server for my Intranet portal, Does this seem reasonable?

1 - Do I have to license each CPE, (That $40 thing) 

2 - If I use the 4 radio system, do I have to populate each slot.

3 - With this system I'm delighted to say that I get 11 channels, and I want to know how it will do against Canopy.
 A - Interference wise, will I hurt a canopy system or will it hurt me?
 B - Will a canopy system be more or less expensive
 C - Is it just me or do those canopy systems look like large plastic twinkies.

4 - When Valemont ships me a CPE, will it be ready to go or do I have some work to do.

5 - Have they been known to ship in lots smaller than 10, or could some one sell me a couple at first to make a demo unit.

6 - How many customers per square mile given $300 install fee, $40/month, and 256KB bandwidth?

Lee
