 Yes, before I was on the Board at WISPA, they had hosted "manufacturer"
 listservs.  Chuck, was the moderator of the list for "motorola" at the
 time, and his list was moved over.  I wanted to host a MikroTik@ list,
 as I was a vendor at the time for WISPA.  That's when sh!t hit the fan,
 some other distributors got butthurt, and WISPA decided that the motorola
 list wasn't Chuck M's, and the MikroTik list wasn't mine anymore. I
 notified Chuck M of the pending issues and how my list was getting ripped
 from under me...and before WISPA could notify Chuck M that his list was
 going to be taken over, Chuck M converted it to the AFMUG list, shut down
 the motorola@wispa list and the AFMUG list was born.  A...the

 The list was Part-15 at one time, and existed prior to

 the infamous “I quit” email - and that was pretty much the end
 of Part 15 and the list.  I actually think that was during a
 Animal Farm session if I recall correctly.

 Chuck took over the list after that - I don’t think it was
 called AFMUG at the time, but it later became that.   Might have
 even been Motorola specific - not that it was ever on topic
 anyway.

 There are WISPA lists - but the AFMUG list has lived on.   Yes -
 it’s Chuck’s list though occasionally the members donate money
 for the cost of hosting it.

 This list has it’s advantages.   It’s membership leans toward a
 group of people who have known each other for a very long
 time.   You probably shouldn’t say bad things about WBMfg
 products (makes Chuck get all kranky) but everybody else if fair

 really say with a WISPA hat on (or at least I can’t say without

Do you all want all the lists to be free?

If so, I'll close up PART-15.ORG and you all can do whatever you want.

I'm sick of all this B.S. If you don't want to support PART-15.ORG then
don't and GO AWAY. Start your own damn lists somewhere else because
PART-15.ORG will just fade away which appears to be what you guys want
and I
have no problem with that idea.

And you know what Chuck, if people like Charles Wu would ever pay his
bills/debts that he owes PART-15.ORG maybe he could get back on the
lists.
As far as the others go, the hell with them as far as I'm concerned.
They
don't want to support PART-15.ORG so why the hell should I let them in

2018-02-13 Thread Chris Fabien
We splice in a uneven ratio 1x2 feeding a 1xN PLC to fees drops at that
splice point. So it might look like a 10/90 with the 10% into the 1x4 and
90% continuing down the road on the same strand. Troubleshooting can be
tricky, we test light as we splice to verify everything.  The benefit is I
can pass 2 miles of road, 30-40 houses using one strand on a 12ct mainline
and still have 11 unused strands at the end to keep going.

it’s Chuck’s list though occasionally the members donate money

This list has it’s advantages.   It’s membership leans toward a

list though occasionally the members donate money for the cost of hosting it.

  This list has it’s advantages.   It’s membership leans toward a group of 
people who have known each other for a very long time.   You probably shouldn’t 
say bad things about WBMfg products (makes Chuck get all kranky) but everybody 
else if fair game.  I like it since it’s a place I can say things I can’t 
really say with a WISPA hat on (or at least I can’t say without blowback to 
WISPA).

 The list was Part-15 at one time, and existed prior to WISPA.   Can’t
 recall the last name - Michael somebody ran the organization.   One day
 Michael was mad about something and posted the infamous “I quit” email -
 and that was pretty much the end of Part 15 and the list.  I actually think
 that was during a Animal Farm session if I recall correctly.

 Chuck took over the list after that - I don’t think it was called AFMUG
 at the time, but it later became that.   Might have even been Motorola
 specific - not that it was ever on topic anyway.

 There are WISPA lists - but the AFMUG list has lived on.   Yes - it’s

Yes, before I was on the Board at WISPA, they had hosted "manufacturer"

his list was moved over. I wanted to host a MikroTik@ list, as I was a vendor

notify Chuck M that his list was going to be taken over, Chuck M converted it

This list has it’s advantages. It’s membership leans toward a group of people

Yep, dead of night with greasepaint on my face  a new list was born... 
again...

I can name names over at WISPA that caused the problem I still remember 
names.

But I think we have kinda patched things up.
They have pretty much co-opted the whole AnimalFarm idea with my blessings and 
I get to go to the show once a year and see y’all.

As much as I would love to do an old fashioned AnimalFarm, I am too old and 
lazy to put on the show.

Do you all want all the lists to be free?

If so, I'll close up PART-15.ORG and you all can do whatever you want.

I'm sick of all this B.S. If you don't want to support PART-15.ORG then
don't and GO AWAY. Start your own damn lists somewhere else because
PART-15.ORG will just fade away which appears to be what you guys want
and I
have no problem with that idea.

And you know what Chuck, if people like Charles Wu would ever pay his
bills/debts that he owes PART-15.ORG maybe he could get back on the
lists.
As far as the others go, the hell with them as far as I'm concerned.
They
don't want to support PART-15.ORG so why the hell should I let them in
for
free? B.S. I'm fed up folks.

You do mean Canopy 400, not PTP400, right?  So the Canopy 400 will be 5.4?

I have Trango ATLAS backhauls coexisting with PTP400 OK, same tower same 
height, maybe 10 ft horizontal separation, pointed maybe 120 degrees from 
each other.

The biggest problem has been ATLAS backhaul interfering into APs on the same

tower, on the same frequency, with 100+ feet of vertical separation.  I 
would really avoid using the same frequency on the same tower for anything 
without sync.  You might get away with it if you use a high performance 
dish.

I think your biggest chance of problems is with panel antennas because they 
will have significant sidelobes.  The least chance will be with shrouded 
dishes, or if you are lucky enough to be able to use existing horn antennas 
left behind by a telco.

Chuck M converted it to the AFMUG list, shut down the motorola@wispa list and

Yep, dead of night with greasepaint on my face  a new list was born... 
again...

I can name names over at WISPA that caused the problem I still remember 
names.

But I think we have kinda patched things up.  
They have pretty much co-opted the whole AnimalFarm idea with my blessings and 
I get to go to the show once a year and see y’all.

As much as I would love to do an old fashioned AnimalFarm, I am too old and

If so, I'll close up PART-15.ORG and you all can do whatever you want.

I'm sick of all this B.S. If you don't want to support PART-15.ORG then
don't and GO AWAY. Start your own damn lists somewhere else because
PART-15.ORG will just fade away which appears to be what you guys want
and I
have no problem with that idea.

And you know what Chuck, if people like Charles Wu would ever pay his
bills/debts that he owes PART-15.ORG maybe he could get back on the
lists.
As far as the others go, the hell with them as far as I'm concerned.
They
don't want to support PART-15.ORG so why the hell should I let them in
for
free? B.S. I'm fed up folks.

Yeah, the part I am not certain with is on my own tower, with the close

  Your list, your rules. I still don't think it's cool to send out 
unsolicited commercial messages without an opt-in. Furthermore industry best 
practices include using a double opt-in. Mailchimp support double opt-in:

Re: [AFMUG] Spam from Chuck

2018-02-13 Thread George Skorup
Yes, Michael Anderson. He got pissed about the OT stuff on the motorola@ 
list. IIRC, shortly after the I QUIT incident, the list server went down 
and he said it was a h/w failure (while out of town? I don't remember if 
that was the case) and finally brought it back up. But it was too late 
and AFMUG was born. More accurately, the "Motorola II" list was born, 
and I believe that was hosted for a short time on the WISPA list serv?


I think the combination of WISPAmerica and Animal Farm is great.

Re: [AFMUG] Spam from Chuck

2018-02-13 Thread Mark Radabaugh
You have to go back a long way in WISP history for how we got here….

The list was Part-15 at one time, and existed prior to WISPA.   Can’t recall 
the last name - Michael somebody ran the organization.   One day Michael was 
mad about something and posted the infamous “I quit” email - and that was 
pretty much the end of Part 15 and the list.  I actually think that was during 
a Animal Farm session if I recall correctly.

Chuck took over the list after that - I don’t think it was called AFMUG at the 
time, but it later became that.   Might have even been Motorola specific - not 
that it was ever on topic anyway.

There are WISPA lists - but the AFMUG list has lived on.   Yes - it’s Chuck’s 
list though occasionally the members donate money for the cost of hosting it.

This list has it’s advantages.   It’s membership leans toward a group of people 
who have known each other for a very long time.   You probably shouldn’t say 
bad things about WBMfg products (makes Chuck get all kranky) but everybody else 
if fair game.  I like it since it’s a place I can say things I can’t really say 
with a WISPA hat on (or at least I can’t say without blowback to WISPA).

  Your list, your rules. I still don't think it's cool to send out unsolicited 
commercial messages without an opt-in. Furthermore industry best practices 
include using a double opt-in. Mailchimp support double opt-in: 
https://kb.mailchimp.com/lists/signup-forms/about-double-opt-in

  In summary: I did not know that by joining the Af list I would, unbeknownst 
to me and surreptitiously, be signed up for another direct email list.

Doing it this way, someone can simply unsubscribe from the spam but not the 
list.  And Mail Chimp will never ever ever ever let me send that person 
anything again for all of eternity.  They rate the quality of lists for how 
many bounces, unsubscribes etc.  I have a pretty good rating with them.


The alternative is going back to the Friday spam and swap fest.

BTW, my distributors have spam rights too.  But only on Friday morning.

I prefer the list to be free from spam like it is now compared to before.

Working that issue to remove those few and bring capacity to full.
I have ptp820 on order to upgrade the ptp650 and very excited about that.

Re: [AFMUG] mini wisp

2018-02-13 Thread Rory Conaway
So far, all of it.  We don’t have to worry about reusing frequencies with this 
kind of deployment.  We have such a dynamic and high-interference environment 
with competitors moving stuff around all the time, there is no channel we can 
use that may not have interference within 24 hours, hence the more narrow beam 
patterns.  We also have so many new customers going in that things that  
topologies are changing drastically.  We have migrated many APs to 40MHz as we 
understand more of where we have to cover and can plan better.  You have to 
take care with distances in DFS directions but that’s pretty much it.

That being said, as we get more APs per location, we are starting to migrate 
towards GPS and with Ubiquiti, 40MHz channels.  With Mimosa, we are moving 
towards 80MHz channels (more customers per AP due to range differences in 
deployment models).  This should set us up for next generation products also.

How much total frequency are you using with 12 horns deployed at a site?  What 
does your frequency re-use pattern look like?

We always looks at ROI.  Except for 1 rare case that we bought 900Mhz 450's 
for, and even then my ROI is well over 16 months or more, starting from scratch 
makes the 450 a challenge for profitability.  I'm also not convinced that the 
450 will keep up with the rest of the industry in terms of capacity without 
much more investment whereas 802.11 products are cheap to upgrade.

As for capacity, not starting with 802.11ac is DOA.  New 802.11ac chipsets are 
already pushing on 1024QAM and some other amazing features that will change how 
we deploy on towers.  RF Elements horns have already done that.

For example, you can run 12 Ubiquiti Prisms with 12 horns, each covering 30-40 
degrees (overlap and minimizing the dropoff) for less than $5K.  Even if you 
use 50/50 on GPS, you are still talking about at least 1.2Gbps of download 
capacity (40MHz channels, 200Mbps per customer average).  Need more, RF 
Elements is shipping an even more narrow horn to double that.  What's even more 
amazing is that the need for GPS goes down significantly depending on how you 
deploy the horns meaning even more capacity.

We have found that deploying Mimosa with 2 antennas covering 60-120 degrees or 
Ubiquiti covering 30 degrees per AP in the directions we needed, meant we 
didn't have to cover 360 degrees.  If we added users that weren't in the 
pattern, we just added more APs or in the case of Mimosa, swapped out the 
antenna with more narrow patterns and added more APs to expand coverage .  A 
single user pays for a Ubiquiti/Horn AP in the first 8 months and 2 users 
Mimosa.   I understand this doesn't work well for tower deployments with 
outsourced climbers or with towers that are billed by cable pulls, antenna 
square footage, number of APs, etc...  which is also why we rarely use towers.  
I'd rather find a few lower locations that have easy access than a single tower 
but that's not always realistic.

At the moment I would wait to see what this LTU is all about. Should soon 
arrive at US Beta store. An airfiber class radio mounted to horns may give a 
real boost. There would be a lot capacity even using them at smaller Channels. 
They will use power below 10W and will be much cheaper than 450m so you could 
install a 360 degree cluster which you might densify at the direction where 
most customers live. Using an EP-S16 you could aggregate them to 10GE and feed 
them with a Licensed gear right up there. You only need to bring 48V DC up to 
the tower.

The flaw with those calcs is that the actually does, theoretically, have 7x
the capacity of anything else out there doing 256qam in a 20mhz channel.
Granted, you're probably never actually going to get that kind of capacity
in the real world, since it's going to depend on the conditions being
perfect, and the customers all being in just the right geographic location,
but 3-4 times the capacity of a typical 2x2 system isn't at all
unrealistic... that said, I've never used 450m, and probably never will,
because we just don't have the kind of subscriber density where it would
make sense anywhere in our network.

Also, anybody that would put 80 customers on a single AP on a 20mhz channel
with any 2x2 system that's currently available is... nuts.

I had to do an NDA for the Trustwave discussion, but I don't think 
they'd mind me saying that IPv6 support is coming in Q2 this year and 
that they have a solution for HTTPS traffic.


I'm not entirely sure if there's a business case yet, but may be.   It's 
not just porno, it's also anti-malware and anti-phishing.  In theory 
somebody is paying $80/year for Norton Internet Security, and maybe that 
should be my money instead of Norton's.

Re: [AFMUG] ISP in a box

2018-02-13 Thread Carl Peterson
I'm working on a similar project.
Still looking for hardware for the vMX BNG but the basic outline is:

vMX running as a BNG on ? hardware.
DHCP, DNS server running on a slice on the same server.  Possibly also a
fall over Freeradius instance with some default accept behavior.  We run
accounts based on circuits so we could have all the possible circuits for
the POP already set up in the radius server with default attributes just in
case the BNG can't get back to our main authentication servers for some
reason.

In theory, you could also use that as your router, but I prefer to keep
that separate so an ACX in packet mode as the router.  Either ACX1100 or
ACX2200 depending on 1G/10G.

For me, I'm a firm believer in running a BNG to do authenticated IPoE on
unique customer circuits.  I'm guessing Mikrotik et al can also do this
somehow.

I'm trying to fit this all into a Calix ODC100 along with the E7-2.

[AFMUG] CnPilot with SFP?

2018-02-13 Thread Adam Moffett

Speaking of AE.

Is there a Cambium router on the roadmap with an SFP port?  If I could 
stick all my Active Ethernet CPE into CnMaestro I'd be happy as a pig in 
sh**.




Re: [AFMUG] mini wisp

2018-02-13 Thread Adam Moffett
That's a good point.  If his build out time frame is a year down the 
road, I'd pick something now as a fallback plan, but keep my eyes peeled 
for both Ubiquiti LTU and ePMP 3000.  These are both interesting 
sounding.

At the moment I would wait to see what this LTU is all about. Should 
soon arrive at US Beta store. An airfiber class radio mounted to horns 
may give a real boost. There would be a lot capacity even using them at 
smaller Channels. They will use power below 10W and will be much 
cheaper than 450m so you could install a 360 degree cluster which you 
might densify at the direction where most customers live. Using an 
EP-S16 you could aggregate them to 10GE and feed them with a Licensed 
gear right up there. You only need to bring 48V DC up to the tower.

Re: [AFMUG] Outdoor PON OLT

2018-02-13 Thread Chris Fabien
With some very appreciated help from Gerard myself and another Michigan ISP
have deployed this ZTE equipment and Gerards description is accurate. The
only issue we have found is some Wi-Fi bugs in the F660 ONU we went with,
if you require a customer owned router or provide a different router that
solves the problem.

Our long term plan for that is to switch to a SmartRG GPON res gateway when
they are available in a couple months. All in one unit with 4x4 AC wifi and
voip.

We also deployed a tapped trunk splitting layout which has saved us a lot
of money on strand count in our low density rural areas.

At the moment I would wait to see what this LTU is all about. Should soon 
arrive at US Beta store. An airfiber class radio mounted to horns may give a 
real boost. There would be a lot capacity even using them at smaller Channels. 
They will use power below 10W and will be much cheaper than 450m so you could 
install a 360 degree cluster which you might densify at the direction where 
most customers live. Using an EP-S16 you could aggregate them to 10GE and feed 
them with a Licensed gear right up there. You only need to bring 48V DC up to 
the tower.

 If you do the standard 4xAP so you can do 2 channels and back to back

 Further note: You can see I did those calcs at 1024QAM, so reduce
