Mike,

Jimmy P. has NO digestive tract?  I lived in the same house with him for 4
days when in Louisiana and I can swear that he has none. I think that is
where the term "CAMP SHAGNASTY" must have came from! ;)

Gotta love Jimmy though, he has a heart of gold!

Better yet, use StarOS access points.  They work great with Tranzeos and 
will run like rice and beans through Mac's digestive tract.

Re: [WISPA] 120* Sectors

2006-02-13 Thread John Scrivner
Your problem is likely peer to peer file sharing I bet. Do you have the 
ability to see what is actually being sent per IP address on your 
network? A flood from a peer to peer "attack" can bring your wireless 
network to its knees. One client with multiple sessions can do the 
damage all by themselves. Star OS and Mikrotik are two things that can 
be your friend here. Star OS has nice IP Traffic Analysis tools built 
in. I hear Mikrotik can isolate and throttle your peer to peer traffic 
to a low level to force some sanity on your network. Best to move this 
out to the edge as much as possible to limit the radio airtime from 
being flooded with traffic. I have provisions in my acceptable use 
policy which limit what a customer can do including no peer to peer use 
or allowance for termination if they cause problems on the network. The 
key is we shut them down if they break the rules. The network troubles 
go away then.

Good luck,
Scriv

I have three mounted back to back on a pole.  It all worked fine until

from too many subs or maybe it's the fact that a majority of my subs 
are locked into 1M air rate, or maybe its because the subs are NLOS, 
or maybe because of the F/B or side to side isolation.  So what is my 
problems?  High pings and timeouts.  Only when traffic is high.  Or 
maybe my 600k upload is maxed out and everything is stacking up.  One 
thing I do know is I hooked up subs I shouldn't have.


I am looking for advice on antennas.  Check out the ones I am using 
ans point me to 3 sectors that will perform good back to back, NLOS, 
and maybe a higher gain to grab a little more signal to get the 1M 
subs up to 11M.


Thanks all.

Subject: Re: [WISPA] 900 client
and omni antennas



 



The best client antenna in 900 depends on the typical
weather / environment, not just specifically best antenna.





 





To combat heavy foliage in very Rural areas (dry summer
months), M2inc's - 17 dbi Yagis have been invaluable to gain maximum
RSSI, to penetrate the trees.  However, they become useless in Winter
weather, when they get ice buildup on them.





 





In a ice/snow heavy environment, panel antennas are MUCH
better, for example the built-in 10dbi antenna of Trango 900 radios, to get max
allowed RSSI in a weather resistent panel enclosure.  The F/B is poor
(only 12 db), but often the best choice for ease, cost, and Dual pol
flexibilty.





 





In high noise areas, such as Urban or colocated near paging
gear, a high quality antenna like MTI's 10 dbi panel, offers maximum F/B
ratio, to block out interference. Not much can out perform them, but
at a trade off of cost and flexibility of pol change on the fly.





 





When Yagi's can be mounted low for easy access, (within
Gorilla Ladder height (18 feet), and for residential where I can afford to take
the risk of not having pol change on the fly (usually consistent noise floor on
a polarity), I don't hesitate to install a Yagi as my first
choice.  Often Verticle is less desirable interference any way, based
on paging companies.  However, for critical links, installing the M2inc
yagis are risky. They mounting method is horrible. It allows a lot of play for
the Yagi to move in heavy winds.  If mounted high on a steep roof, I avoid
the Yagi unless they are absolutely necessary, because they need mcuh more
frequent attention. For example to wipe the snow off of them, or re-align.





 





There are someother Yagis that have more secure double point
mounts, around 12-15 dbi, if you can afford to give up the 2 db.





 





As for verticle Omni type client antennas, for example for
mobile apps, I have no advice.

Re: [WISPA] Advice on Legal Options for Competitor Interference

2006-02-13 Thread warped.terranova.net

Cloaking with StarOS V3 should solve your problem.

Todd Barber wrote:

I have had equipment deployed on a local water tank for about the last 
two years.  The setup has been sectorized and using 3 120 degree 2.4 GHz 
channels since we deployed.  I also have 4 5.8 GHz links running and one 
5.3 GHz.  Basically this site is vital to my network and I have used a 
large chunk of the unlicensed spectrum.


 

About a year ago another company deployed a 5.8 GHz backhaul link and a 
2.4 GHz omni on the residence that is approximately 100 yards away from 
the tank.  Their initial deployment created 2.4 GHz interference with my 
existing customers and I squeezed my existing sectorized channels 
together to get away from it.  I’ve been using 4, 7, and 11 while they 
have been deployed on 1.


 

In the past I have used a spectrum analyzer to evaluate the signals from 
both my site and theirs.  I believe all of my equipment is running right 
at 36 dB as allowed by law for point to multipoint.  When measured with 
the same antenna from the same distance, their signal is approximately 7 
dB higher than mine.  In addition to the excessive power it also appears 
the amp they are using is dirty and the channel width is wider than 
anything I am running.


 

Their initial deployment really upset me as their lack of engineering 
judgment or just plain stupidity created issues for my customers who had 
reliable links before.  I couldn’t believe that anyone would choose to 
deploy 2.4 GHz within a hundred yards of an existing installation that 
was already using the entire spectrum.  I have tolerated the situation 
and dealt with the interference on my lower channel by over engineering 
any links to that sector.  I have also had my backhaul link performance 
intermittently knocked off line after they changed channels on their 5.8 
GHz equipment. 

 

During the backhaul interference issue I contacted the company and give 
them credit for working with me to resolve the issue.  During that 
conversation they informed me they were more than willing to coordinate 
with me and would notify me if they were changing channels.


 

Over the last few weeks I have been fighting with numerous troublesome 
client connections on two different sectors that had been running 
without issue.  Today I went to the tank to upgrade the remaining 2 APPO 
units to a StarOS WRAP setup in an effort to improve performance. 

 

When I arrived I found that my competitor has now installed a 50 ft. 
pole and has deployed an additional 4 radios on it.  Needless to say I 
immediately understood why so many of my customers were experiencing 
issues.  I also see that the competitor was really sincere about 
contacting me around channel usage.

 

My questions are what are my legal options, has anyone dealt with this 
type of situation before (deployment within 100 yards), and what kind of 
lawyer should I contact (any referrals are welecome)?  With the current 
heavy usage of spectrum at this site I do not believe there is any 
option of let’s play nice and coordinate channels.  There aren’t any 
left to coordinate and they were all used before they deployed.  I don’t 
feel I have any option but legal action. 

 

 From past list discussions I am under the impression that there may be 
the non FCC involved option of filing “interfering with my ability to 
conduct business” suit.  Any comments on this would be greatly 
appreciated. 

 

I also believe I may have recourse with the FCC.  I am confident they 
are exceeding the legal EIRP on their amped omni as one issue.  I also 
question if their behavior could be construed as intentionally causing 
interference.  Knowingly deploying within 100 yards of an existing site 
that is already utilizing the spectrum seems to create a situation that 
can not avoid interference.  If they didn’t know at the time of their 
initial deployment they were made aware of exactly what spectrum was 
being used since via voice and email exchanges.  Even if they are not 
competent enough to use a spectrum analyzer they had been informed of 
both the existing and potential for further interference issues before 
the deployment of the new additional 4 radios I found today.  I’m not 
really sure I want to go down this path but again I don’t believe they 
have left me any other options.  How do I begin a conversation with the 
FCC related to this situation?


 

Any and all comments would be greatly appreciated.

2006-02-13 Thread Marlon K. Schafer (509) 982-2181



It doesn't seem to make much difference if it's 1 
mile away or 1' away :-).  We have a site that has 4 wifi systems on it and 
there are 3 other providers about a mile away.  From the cpe point of view, 
they are almost the same site 10+ miles out.
 
Having said that, most of the people up there work 
to see what channels are in use and then use something else.  We've had to 
put in VERY high end antennas and put much of our system on the same 
channel.  It's working ok, especially for one's on the opposite sides of 
the site.
 
If you have a water tower to work with, assuming 
you can get the tank between your antennas and theirs that should allow you to 
do a good job of reusing channels.
 
Use good antennas, be creative.  Also, start 
moving things to hpol as you can, that'll help trim off signal from the cpe 
pov.
 
As for the power thing.  The FCC does care 
about that.  They do NOT want a cb radio fiasco to happen again.  Sure 
others get to use the spectrum (when doing system design I always try to leave 
room for competitors to come in) but they have to do it right.
 
If those guys are interfering with you, you are 
interfering with them.  Probably even worse than they are doing to 
you.
 
Check out the cpe side and look for 
amps.
 
Use your SA and see if you can pick up on the dB 
levels again.
 
I agree with others, that if they are just a couple 
of dB over not much is likely to happen.  In any case it's not likely that 
the FCC will shut them down or fine them, but they will make them fix things and 
get back down to the proper power levels.
 
I had a very obnoxious competitor who was running 
15 dB omni antennas with 1 watt amps (at least that's what he was telling the 
tower owners).  He was a bit of a problem for me, but I knew that operators 
that do dumb things like that eventually run out of money so I left him alone 
after one failed attempt at working with them (they no-showed me at the meeting 
we'd set up).  I engineered around his systems and was running pretty 
well.  Even though I could point my customers several degrees away from his 
systems and still pick his stuff up at higher power levels than my 
stuff.
 
After a while I had a collection of 3 or 4 other 
wisps that were having trouble with the same guy.  We got together and 
built a case against the guy.  Pictures, equipment data when known 
etc.  I sent that to some of the FCC enforcement folks that I know and 
eventually I was contacted by a field rep.  I sent the data we had put 
together along with contact info for the wisps that were more affected by the 
first class prick than I was.  I never did hear back from the FCC but all 
amps are either gone or have been moved indoors.  All ssid's are now hidden 
(not that that matters to a $25,000 spectrum analyzer :-) etc.  I think 
he's running at better power levels but I've not taken the time to run a good 
check lately.
 
I did have a couple of customers get mad at me and 
move over to his system.  It took 3 months for the longest one to come 
back.  I guess even on our bad days we have better service than he does on 
the good days :-).
 
Feel free to drop me a line and we can see if we 
can figure out a way to get you up and running nicely again and a way to make 
him play nice.

How do I begin a
conversation with the FCC related to this
situation?

Basically, you don't.

Unless you can PROVE that their ERIP is over 36dbi on their point to
multi-point omni or sectors you will not get anywhere with the FCC. 
They will take action on egregiously excessive power.  But if he
is running a 1W amp into a 12db omni, don't hold your breath waiting on
the FCC.  On the other hand, a 20W military amp into a 24db grid might
or might not get their attention.  (But I would not want to stand in
front of it to measure the output!!)

The current FCC policy on the ISM bands seems to be that almost
anything goes as long as you are not interfering with LICENSED
spectrums users in other bands.  This may change, but I doubt it.  With
the current budget crunch, there doesn't seem to be any money for
enforcement

As to if he is using non certified equipment, the enforcement guys can
do something about it, if they get interested.  But, they have a lot on
their plates and enforcement in the ISM bands is very low on their
priority list.

Been there, done that.  Got the T-shirt.

Re: [WISPA] Advice on Legal Options for Competitor Interference

2006-02-13 Thread Matt Liotta
Do you have anything in writing from them agreeing to frequency 
coordination? If you do and they violated that agreement then you may 
well have a case. I doubt you are going to have much luck pursuing them 
on the interference issue otherwise. Now if they have antennas and 
amplifiers with their Wi-Fi equipment it is very likely they aren't 
using FCC certified systems, which could allow the FCC to shut them down 
as well as fine them.

I have had equipment deployed on a local water tank for about the last 
two years. The setup has been sectorized and using 3 120 degree 2.4 
GHz channels since we deployed. I also have 4 5.8 GHz links running 
and one 5.3 GHz. Basically this site is vital to my network and I have 
used a large chunk of the unlicensed spectrum.


About a year ago another company deployed a 5.8 GHz backhaul link and 
a 2.4 GHz omni on the residence that is approximately 100 yards away 
from the tank. Their initial deployment created 2.4 GHz interference 
with my existing customers and I squeezed my existing sectorized 
channels together to get away from it. I’ve been using 4, 7, and 11 
while they have been deployed on 1.


In the past I have used a spectrum analyzer to evaluate the signals 
from both my site and theirs. I believe all of my equipment is running 
right at 36 dB as allowed by law for point to multipoint. When 
measured with the same antenna from the same distance, their signal is 
approximately 7 dB higher than mine. In addition to the excessive 
power it also appears the amp they are using is dirty and the channel 
width is wider than anything I am running.


Their initial deployment really upset me as their lack of engineering 
judgment or just plain stupidity created issues for my customers who 
had reliable links before. I couldn’t believe that anyone would choose 
to deploy 2.4 GHz within a hundred yards of an existing installation 
that was already using the entire spectrum. I have tolerated the 
situation and dealt with the interference on my lower channel by over 
engineering any links to that sector. I have also had my backhaul link

before the deployment of the new additional 4 radios I found today. 
I’m not really sure I want to go down this path but again I don’t

conversation with the FCC related to this situation?

Re: [WISPA] ping utility - Trango

2006-02-13 Thread Tom DeReggi
Take note that when ever you reboot a Trango radio it sends out packets from 
the IP that it is configured on.
So if the Trango is connected to a Linux PC/Router, just run TCPDUMP, reboot 
the Radio, and watch for the IP.


If on Windows any packet sniffer will give that info. We use Etherreal.

Re: [WISPA] Ground wire

2006-02-13 Thread Tom DeReggi

You should consider how long the Ground wire run needs to be.
Longer runs are more important to be #6 and #8 gauge.
You could argue for the new low cost of residential equipment, is expensive 
ground wire needed?
You could gamble, so what if a radio here and there blew, if the small 
common surges were handled with the ground system.
It also depends on what you are grounding, the inside equipment POE, the 
outside equipment, the Coax/Cat5 shield or the main mast?


If grounding a mast, I'd never use anything less than #8 guage. If grounding 
at POE, (short run) #10 gauge would be fine.

Re: [WISPA] 900 client and omni antennas

2006-02-13 Thread Tom DeReggi



The best client antenna in 900 depends on the 
typical weather / environment, not just specifically best antenna.
 
To combat heavy foliage in very Rural areas (dry 
summer months), M2inc's - 17 dbi Yagis have been invaluable to gain 
maximum RSSI, to penetrate the trees.  However, they become useless in Winter weather, when they get ice buildup 
on them.
 
In a ice/snow heavy environment, panel antennas are 
MUCH better, for example the built-in 10dbi antenna of Trango 900 radios, to get 
max allowed RSSI in a weather resistent panel enclosure.  The F/B is 
poor (only 12 db), but often the best choice for ease, cost, and Dual pol 
flexibilty.
 
In high noise areas, such as Urban or colocated 
near paging gear, a high quality antenna like MTI's 10 dbi panel, offers 
maximum F/B ratio, to block out interference. Not much can out perform 
them, but at a trade off of cost and flexibility of pol change on the 
fly.
 
When Yagi's can be mounted low for easy access, 
(within Gorilla Ladder height (18 feet), and for residential where I can afford 
to take the risk of not having pol change on the fly (usually consistent noise 
floor on a polarity), I don't hesitate to install a Yagi as my first 
choice.  Often Verticle is less desirable interference any way, based 
on paging companies.  However, for critical links, installing the M2inc 
yagis are risky. They mounting method is horrible. It allows a lot of play for 
the Yagi to move in heavy winds.  If mounted high on a steep roof, I avoid 
the Yagi unless they are absolutely necessary, because they need mcuh more 
frequent attention. For example to wipe the snow off of them, or 
re-align.
 
There are someother Yagis that have more secure 
double point mounts, around 12-15 dbi, if you can afford to give up the 2 
db.
 
As for verticle Omni type client antennas, for 
example for mobile apps, I have no advice.

Re: [WISPA] 120* Sectors

2006-02-13 Thread Marlon K. Schafer (509) 982-2181

What's with all the question marks on the spec sheet?

Brian, we see this more and more.  Low traffic sites will do many things 
well because there just isn't any RF when there aren't many customers.  So 
tests work very nicely


Antennas are a HUGE part of what makes your network tick.  Cheap ones will 
bite ya in the tail every time.  ESPECIALLY when there are many others 
around.


The rule of thumb is that you should keep your antennas at least 10' apart. 
Alvarion did a test a few years back.  On the same roof with the same ap's 
they used 3 or 4 different sectors.  With the high end ones (read $$) 
they could get as close as 6' before the radios started to take a lot of 
errors.  With the cheap ones they had to have 15 feet!  Antennas were the 
only things changed.  This test was done at a wisp but by the factory techs. 
I'll bet Patrick or Brad would remember more specifics.


If you aren't sure if that's the case you should just try moving one of the 
sectors as far away as you can get.  If that helps, you know you are onto 
something.


I've been pulling out my $120 Maxrad sectors and putting in the $400 Maxrad 
ones.  ALL 4 of the sites that have the cheaper ones do strange things. 
Reliability is way below my other sites.  Swapped the first one out the 
other day, we'll see how things go.  The worst part of it is that they seem 
to affect the systems around them in a bad way too.


As an FYI, I do NOT buy antennas, from anyone, that are hard to weather 
seal.  There's just no reason for those guys to give us anything that we 
have to fight with.


Going through trees etc. will cause all manner of strange things.  The only 
way to really know if that's your problem vs. the other one is to shut two 
sectors down and see if that makes the one sector work better.  If not, then 
you have an outside source of interference, too much nlos, too many 
customers for the system, bad antennas or something.  If shutting the others 
down works, then you can be pretty sure you need to redesign the tower or 
replace a bad antenna or three.


Hope this helps,

I have three mounted back to back on a pole.  It all worked fine until I

many subs or maybe it's the fact that a majority of my subs are locked 
into 1M air rate, or maybe its because the subs are NLOS, or maybe because 
of the F/B or side to side isolation.  So what is my problems?  High pings 
and timeouts.  Only when traffic is high.  Or maybe my 600k upload is 
maxed out and everything is stacking up.  One thing I do know is I hooked 
up subs I shouldn't have.


I am looking for advice on antennas.  Check out the ones I am using ans 
point me to 3 sectors that will perform good back to back, NLOS, and maybe 
a higher gain to grab a little more signal to get the 1M subs up to 11M.


Thanks all.

I have three mounted back to back on a pole.  It all worked fine until 
I hit a higher number of subscribers.  Maybe it's the interference 
from too many subs or maybe it's the fact that a majority of my subs 
are locked into 1M air rate, or maybe its because the subs are NLOS, 
or maybe because of the F/B or side to side isolation.  So what is my 
problems?  High pings and timeouts.  Only when traffic is high.  Or 
maybe my 600k upload is maxed out and everything is stacking up.  One 
thing I do know is I hooked up subs I shouldn't have.


I am looking for advice on antennas.  Check out the ones I am using 
ans point me to 3 sectors that will perform good back to back, NLOS, 
and maybe a higher gain to grab a little more signal to get the 1M 
subs up to 11M.


Thanks all.

RE: [WISPA] ping utility

You could also try just pinging the broadcast address for the network. Most
network device will respond and show there IP address. Failing that "Super
Scan" is a great tool and is handy to see what ports you have open and
therefore help asses any security risks.

It works well for me and is free.
