I would agree with that. We've had gear with 40-gig ports for many years (>6)? Never found a CDN or transport network that would do 40. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP - Original Message - From: "Ma

Not many physical paths available in that area. I would assume there are also a handful of wireless paths as well.Plus, it’s likely most of the cell sites burnt down during the fires.-MikeOn Aug 15, 2023, at 22:54, TJ Trout wrote:I found it interesting that *all*? cellular service on west maui

AS2 is the most hijacked prefix in the world.  Yes UD still owns it, but since different router vendors use different methods of prepending AS numbers, many folks try to prepend twice and end up announcing on AS2.. thanks mike On 8/10/23 9:02 AM, Mark Tinka wrote: On 8/10/23 11:38, Frank

Frontier COs is the easiest example.No antennas and no time service. Yes, they provide BITS, but BITS isn't time. I was also speaking specifically about installing GPS antennas in viable places, not using a facility-provided GPS or NTP service. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing

My facility experience ranges from prohibited to infeasible. I must not be in the right facilities. Yes, many radio platforms have GPS for timing. Some expose it for external time and timing purposes, some do not. Naturally, they do have a pretty good view of the sky. - Mike
