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?

Hi,
Grain dust is highly explosive. If you are outside the structure,
mounting an external box you really don't have much to be concerned
with. The risk is in an enclosed area (like the top of the head house).

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. ;)

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.

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.

Hi,
We have DSL, Cable, licensed 2.5ghz wireless providers and several other
WISP's in our areas. We are the most expensive out of all of them (512k
= $39.95 per month). However, we offer a real, static IP address for
every customer. We offer a free firewall/wireless router during the
701 - 800 of 1168 matches
