[WISPA] iPhone

2007-10-02 Thread Travis Johnson
Hi, About a week ago I decided to buy an iPhone off ebay (brand new) to play with... I wasn't planning on keeping it as my phone, but wanted to play to see what all the hype was about. We don't have ATT service in our area, so once the phone arrived I had to hack it to use Edge Wireless (a

Everyone should realize this is a licensed frequency (2.3ghz?) and that the base stations are very expensive. So, if you have a few million dollars (I think they actually paid $7 million for the license in our area about 10 years ago, with a population of 150,000 people) and want to spend a

How do you estimate usage in a roaming, mesh network? If you don't have capacity, people say it's too slow and cancel service. You basically have to have full coverage in your entire market areas, don't you? Travis Microserv John Thomas wrote: Metricom-Richochet way overbuilt their network in

This sounds crazy to me. There is so much vibration on a grain structure from the motors, augers, moving grain, etc. that I would bet the tower would literally come apart after a few years. You would never catch me on a tower on top of a grain elevator. ;) Travis Microserv Mike Hammett

It's looks pretty freaking scary either way. Even putting up a small 30ft tower, aren't you supposed to bury the first section like 4ft in concrete? That first picture looks like they just used a base plate and secured it to the grainery. No thanks. Travis Microserv Mike Hammett wrote:

Hi, The biggest problem I see when looking at mesh is having access to all those locations... people's homes, light poles, telephone poles, whatever. You now have to install UPS systems, rebooters, have the equipment some-what secure, etc. Just the few repeaters we have at people's homes

That doesn't work really well because of the various WISPs around the entire country. Our biggest expense isn't the actual bandwidth (that's usually around $20/meg)... it's the cost of the transport from the closest NOC. For us, that transport is at least 200 miles. Travis Microserv Clint
