[WISPA] BTS Tower Development

2008-08-18 Thread Mike Hammett
Has anyone heard of BTS Tower Development? They're looking to build a tower in a town near me and I'm wondering if they're just going to sell it to someone else and how friendly they are to WISPs. -- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com

We already run some VPNs across our network but I am under the impression that VLans may be a little more efficient way of transporting data where the points all reside within our network. Is this true? __ Patrick Nix, Jr., csweb.net (918) 235-0414

Tobin at American Communications can probably repair Tranzeo radios. but you have to pay per radio (Which is probably going to be $200 or so). With the cost of a Tranzeo CPE it is probably going to be cheaper just to replace them then to try and have them fixed. Ezlinx is the only company

[WISPA] calculating reliability of parallel 11a wi-fi PtP connections

2008-08-18 Thread Rogelio
I have several PtP shots that I'd like to do with 802.11a 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi, but I would like to make sure that I have the necessary fade margins. For the longer links in which I want to be safe, I was thinking about putting two 802.11a PtP links and then connecting the two radios on each side to

Ok. When someone designs an end to end transport network they are committing to being a layer3 or a layer2 network by design. Sure you can have bridged components on a routed network, and you can have routed end devices on a bridged network, and you can do it differently on your WAN, MAN,

I'd love to hear more on how it goes, as it goes. We came really close to giving MT's MPLS a try last Spring as well, but got cold feet at the last minute, and went a different route. Not because of the MPLS code, but because of other MT issues. Tom DeReggi RapidDSL Wireless, Inc IntAirNet-

Most of them are just CM9 cards or ubnt cards. Alternate boards work in them, you just have to re-seal the antenna enclosure. ryan On Aug 18, 2008, at 8:00 PM, RickG wrote: I've hear some are repairing themselves by putting in their alternative boards? I'd like to hear what works best.

RB133 and radio of your choice, costs around $100 and you get more features than Tranzeo and I think better throughput. Only problem with the newer Slim Line series the Rj-45 pigtail is gone since they mount their SBC right up to the hole under the boot so adding an aftermarket board is a problem
