[WISPA] Message from Alex Huppenthal

2006-07-13 Thread John Scrivner
For some reason Alex is having trouble posting to the WISPA General List 
so here is what he was trying to send:


Alex wrote,

I aon't write for this list any longer, but thought I'd drop in some 
thoughts that may be useful to you.  Perhaps useful to those of you who 
are just getting into being and ISP.


I'd like to know what the list members think of 
http://www.freepress.net/content/about


Freepress.net have a site that can fire off an email to your Rep or  
Senator. You select the topic of concern, click a couple of buttons and 
off goes a canned letter  to your Representative or Congress-person.


Several questions come to mind which I’d like you to answer.   First, 
are the issues on FreePress.net  of concern to the Wireless list 
membership? I see at least 2 I’m personally doing something about.  The 
Telcom Act and Net Neutrality.  If Net Neutrality means keeping the 
number and types of Web sites high, then I’m all for it. Is there a good 
reason to limit or block any site? Is the Internet supposed to be 
governed by Free Speech. If you can’t get your message to the world 
because backbone carriers decided that your message will be queued 
behind theirs and there are 3 main carriers (as there are telcos and 
energy companies), is this a matter of free speech? 

IMHO, the Internet should remain open, unfettered by legislation so long 
as there remains a competitive, open environment at all levels. I'm not  
sure it can be legislated, but certainly congress can adopt a  position 
on the subject, and the FCC can establish guidelines.


If you decide you want to keep a level playing field what does that 
mean? Backbone providers are working hard to exclude competition, so 
goes the take-back of DSL circuits, the rising prices of T1 and other 
Telco/Backbone/DSL/webhosting/Conglomerate ‘assets’. Consolidation makes 
money for investors. It doesn’t create incentive for innovation.


So there’s my nutshell for Net Neutrality. Allow consolidation, which in 
turn creates lower competition, which defuses innovation, which reduces 
arguments for more spectrum which reduces competition, and then apply 
new tiered prices for video, audio, text, images, hosting, VoIP, and 
other innovations, which raises revenues for new massive Telco/Cable 
monopolies, which puts capital - read power - back into the hands of the 
companies who in general languished for 50 years in the monopolies, 
content to tell you that your Central Office was going to get Voice 
Mail, Call forward or anything other than dial tone,  in 8-12 years, if 
you are lucky, and don’t make them ‘mad’.


We all need to excite investors. However, innovation is where 
investment needs to go. I see Net Neutrality as a statement of position 
in that respect. Is it a matter of Free Speech? Nope, its a matter of 
Federal Trade Commission snoozing on the job. Its a statement that 
Podcasting, Videocasting, Screencasting, VoIP, and other innovative 
applications need to be treated without taxation or burdens of higher 
fees in tiered pricing. There is currently a model for bandwidth usage 
that accounts for this variance in load, and its been in use for over 8 
years. 

For any of you that were a part of the pre Commercial Internet -  
roughly prior to 1992. You know that there were guidelines and  rules 
about how the Internet could be used. These rules were  enforced by the 
regional network you were going to connect to.  You applied to the 
regional network for access. In Texas we'd  have to get a connection 
from a local University.


As it was I connected via UUCP to a friendly Admin at ATT and 
registered comsys.com as my domain in 1986. I provided email and news 
exchanges through an SCO Unix box and a couple of slow speed modems.


In those days, peering was something done with dial-up  connections and 
discussions with others - specifically the Dallas Lunch Bunch.


It appears to me today, the Terms of Service / Use that any ISP offers, 
from ourselves (Aspenworks is a small regional ISP) to  Earthlink or 
AOL. The terms of service are now up to the ISP. You  can as an ISP 
declare you are not allowing any ports other than  80 21 25 maybe a 
couple others, and that your service provides a  maximum of 250K bits on 
FTP.


You can declare whatever you like. That's net neutrality.  No  
regulation works and free market rules, with *one* condition.   That 
condition is that small operators, small media producers,  small server 
operators are treated on a level playing field.


Net Neutrality works when the FTC is doing its job. Just like 
innovation works when free enterprise is allowed to flourish in a  
healthy competitive environment.  You can apply whatever billing rule 
you want, so long as there is true competition. Then you have choices 
which likely include the price model you want.


My opinion is that the Internet is at risk from consolidation. In 
energy and telco telcom, is allowed to take place totally unbridled. The 
result is higher 

[WISPA] New FCC Form 477 is up

2006-07-13 Thread David E. Smith
I remember what a bleepstorm this was a few months back, so I'm afraid
to say it, but what the heck.

The new FCC Form 477, due on September 1st for the first half of this
year, is now available at the usual place
( http://www.fcc.gov/formpage.html )

Remember that, as of the March 2006 filing, all broadband ISPs, even
those with less than 250 customers, are required to file Form 477.

While this is almost accurate, it is not exacly right.  FHSS can cause 
serious problems for a DSSS system, as the hopper runs across the 
band.  HOWEVER, DSSS will trash about 30% of that spectrum for the 
hopper.  (At least that is the approximate ratio for the 2.4GHz 
range.)  Having said that, FHSS in 900 DOES make a lot of sense, so 
long as you have the ability to choose where it hops.

I have a link that I tested with 2.4.  I could get about a -88 signal.  It 
might have worked.  Ap is 17 dB with a 13dB 120* sector.  CPE was a lucent 
radio with 24dB grid.


That same link is now running Trango wireless.  8 dB integrated antennas and 
26dB radio output.  We get -75ish with the 900 mhz gear.


900 is cool stuff if there's ANYTHING in the way!

I haven't installed any yet.  I've been waiting for Tranzeo to do 900 this

un-install five or six customers in the last month because our overzealous

Marlon, how would you have done the ethernet?  I thought you were 
restricted to basically 300 feet of ethernet without a 
switch/router/booster every 300 feet or so, or am I missing something?  
I have pole rights in town a $1/pole/yr so I'm trying to find an

RE: [WISPA] 900 radio

This is true as well.  Just one more tradeoff fo FHSS.

You should note that this is ~10 dB of receive sensitivty worth of trade-off
(IMO -- pretty big)

[WISPA] Help Needed PtP Links

2006-07-13 Thread Jory Privett
I am starting to do some upgrades to my network and need some new Point to 
Point links.  I currently use an Orthogon Gemini Lite for a long link that I 
have.  These new links are shorter with good LOS.  I want the reliability of 
the Orthogon without the large price tag. These links will be about 15 Miles 
and I need a actual throughput of about 10M  I have been looking at the SR5 
radio from Mikrotik. Will the SR5 be able to do this reliably?  I want some 
real world info here and not just marketing hype.  Does anyone have links 
like this with the SR5?  What antenna are you using?  How is the 
performance?

 I remember what a bleepstorm this was a few months back, so I'm afraid
 to say it, but what the heck.

 The new FCC Form 477, due on September 1st for the first half of this
 year, is now available at the usual place
 ( http://www.fcc.gov/formpage.html )

 Remember that, as of the March 2006 filing, all broadband ISPs, even
 those with less than 250 customers, are required to file Form 477.

Take a look at our new B100, an addition to popular B14 and B28 BreezeNET
backhaul/bridging line. Lots of people here can give you feedback on the B14
 B28. Feedback from the field on the B100 has provided some really strong
results:

62 Mbps sustained NET throughput at 16 miles
80 Mbps sustained NET throughput at 1 mile

It is a very simple product to install and is highly integrated. The B100
comes with external antenna ports. List price is less than $8K (many here
can chime in with expected discounts to give you an expectation of street

we do custom jumpers with any cable or connector.  If you don't want to 
use LMR400 I would suggest using perhaps LMR240.  We'll install whatever 
connectors you need.

No. We tend to be RF purists (for better or worse) and components that have
so wide a frequency range have poorer performance. It is a trade off for
sure, but that is why we have not built such a system.

As to channelization, it is 40MHz. Our goal was to offer high performance,
very high quality, great simplicity, and at a very moderate price. This is
not trying to be an Orthogon Spectra and even Redline AN-50 -- WISP already
have those options if you have the need and the money. The BreezeNET B
series offers a fully featured product with right-sized capacity at very
modest cost. The BNET's offer Toyota quality, BMW performance, but at a
Chevy price.

Re: [WISPA] RouterBoard 532s

2006-07-13 Thread Travis Johnson




Wow... I forgot some people don't watch the same wireless lists... :)
This was a big discussion on isp-wireless a few weeks ago. ;)

The routerboard 532 is emitting a HIGH level of noise at 50-70Mhz and
140-170Mhz. I am talking 50-60db of "noise" coming off the DC-DC
converter on the board. 

I made this discovery about 3 weeks ago when we shut down the local HAM
repeater on a tower we were co-located on. It puts out the most noise
when using a regular power supply (48v), and then drops a little with
PoE (48v). We were able to eliminate the 50-70Mhz and drop the
140-170Mhz noise down to about 10db by switching to 18v PoE.

However, this board is not even CLOSE to FCC specs, and never will be.
Many others have discovered this same problem in the last couple of
weeks. It is completely obvious on a spectrum analyzer as well. It will
shut down emergency two-way radio systems if you are within 1000ft of
their repeater (found that one out as well).

I have opened a trouble ticket with Mikrotik, emailed John Tulley,
emailed support and posted on their forum all with no response (in
3 weeks time). My guess is they are crapping their pants.

No. We tend to be RF purists (for better or worse) and components that have
so wide a frequency range have poorer performance. It is a trade off for
sure, but that is why we have not built such a system.

As to channelization, it is 40MHz. Our goal was to offer high performance,
very high quality, great simplicity, and at a very moderate price. This is
not trying to be an Orthogon Spectra and even Redline AN-50 -- WISP already
have those options if you have the need and the money. The BreezeNET B
series offers a fully featured product with right-sized capacity at very
modest cost. The BNET's offer Toyota quality, BMW performance, but at a
Chevy price.

Jory (et al),

Take a look at our new B100, an addition to popular B14 and B28 BreezeNET
backhaul/bridging line. Lots of people here can give you feedback on the B14
 B28. Feedback from the field on the B100 has provided some really strong
results:

62 Mbps sustained NET throughput at 16 miles
80 Mbps sustained NET throughput at 1 mile

It is a very simple product to install and is highly integrated. The B100
comes with external antenna ports. List price is less than $8K (many here
can chime in with expected discounts to give you an expectation of street
price.

RE: [WISPA] Help Needed PtP Links

2006-07-13 Thread Patrick Leary
Not sure. These were data reported back to us came from trusted beta
customers. The 80Mbps was from a customer in the south trunking back a bunch
of video connections, the 62Mbps was reported by a large (6k plus CPE) WISP
in Texas, where I suppose it was being used for traditional WISP backhaul
with commercial and residential Internet access and commercial VLAN stuff.

I'll ask the U.S. product manager (bcc'ed here) about performance per
specifically UDP, TCP, and Smartbits. Stay tuned, assuming he fills me in!

  I would
like to take this
opportunity to introduce a new WISPA Vendor Member to our organization.
Optivon
  http://www.optivon.com/
has paid
their dues and has made it official. They want to work with all of the
WISP
industry and help support our efforts through WISPA. I am sure I speak
for us
all in welcoming them to WISPA. If you have a desire to offer VOIP for
your
customers then consider giving Optivon a shot at your business. After
all, they
are the first VOIP vendor to actually build their business plan around
working
with WISPs like you and support our association. I will be talking to
them for
my own network's VOIP needs. I hope you all do the same. Here is some
information about Optivon:
  Optivon is a
facilities
based VoIP applications services provider located in
  Tampa, FL and San Juan, Puerto Rico.
We provide hosted services to local exchange
carriers, wireless Internet service providers, and other carriers. 
  
  Our hosted
services include IP Centrex/Hosted
PBX, Residential VoIP, IP Trunking and other applications. Through
various
providers, we can offer a very large nationwide local footprint of DID
and toll
free numbers with E911 service. If you prefer, for increased margins,
we can
work with you in helping you operate your own local PSTN connections.
This is
especially attractive for internationally based carriers. We also offer
you
attractive domestic and international termination rates. 
  
  Through our
CLEC subsidiary in Puerto
Rico, we can provide DID origination
and termination. Our platform is based on a carrier class tandem
softswitch and a Tekelec 6000 (formerly Vocal Data) applications
service
platform, which is located in a "bunker type" central office facility
for increased network reliability.
  
  We have a good
understanding of wireless data
networks, having operated one. Among our customers for hosted VoIP
services are
a WISP in Tampa
that is expanding into Atlanta
and South Florida, another in Connecticut,
and one that has 2,500 radios installed in Puerto Rico. We provide service to
the
largest telephone operating company in the World and to small WISP
operators. 
  
  Different than
other providers, Optivon is
prepared to work with you providing not only the VoIP services, but
also sales
and engineering support to help you succeed.
  
  Also, we will
not compete against you. We
only sell our services in the USA
through carriers.
