My experience as well.The mount is wayyy to flimsy.
Equinox has some much heavier duty mounts which I hope to get my hands on in
a week or two. They would fix that flimsy thing right up and make it quite
solid.
I have seen an example of one that wasn't for the grids, and they are
Because they may have their data in a more timely and reliable fashion than
they get it by using casual access.
When I first got into WiFi, I saw that 80% of detected (broadcasting) access
points were fully open. Within a year, it dropped to 60%. Now, several
years later it is well below 50%, and
George, awhile back I got from you a cat5 pigtail that had a quick-connect
fitting on it. I think I can use these for my Tranzeo CPEs if I bore out
the hole in the boot of the CPE. This could speed up installs some
troubleshooting as well, as we can disconnect the customer's PoE cable and
I've spent the past week working on getting my bandwidth management system
up and running. I opted to go with PowerCode's product because it seemed to
be so comprehensive, but the documentation is less than adequate and I spend
a lot of time on the phone with their support staff trying to get
StarOS.
Jeremy Davis and I put together a module for Freeside that uploads
bandwidth rules into a StarOS BW controller automatically. It has made
life a lot easier.

Hi,
I would agree that the percentage of open AP's has dropped in the past
few years. However, I still believe it's above 50%.
I just can't see a company that already has an operating, working system
in place that is basically FREE for them changing to paying ISP's around
the country for
Can you share the method you use to link them up so quickly over such a
distance?
Thanks

I have aligned 5.8ghz links up to 73 miles (and even a test link at 137
miles) within 5 minutes start to finish. Is it possible you have another
problem?

Hi,
We use either a GPS at each side, or just bearing coordinates and a
compass. I have aligned several links at 20+ miles only doing one side
and then going to the other side and having a perfect signal. :)
And actually the longer the distance the easier it becomes... most

yeah I can see 10 - 12 of them at any time off one of my towers.

unless we ISPs all get together and lock up the wifi world for customers.
I've charged people $50 to go in and secure their stuff. I could do it
for $20... ;)

The legality and ethics of using an open access point is questionable,
but there is a liability issue as well. In most of the areas that I
cover with my network, there is a strong signal with SSID of NoDial.
Connecting to this will get you a DHCP address even, without a WEP or
other encryption

ah yes, but then you would've had a cop knock on the front door,
and ASK your permission to use the phone. At which point, you
COULD say NO! and shut the door on them. Or, you could let them
in, and tell them OK! here it is!
BUT...They wouldn't do the equivalent of walking up to your NID,
If they still operate as before, you shouldn't see them unless you set your
tower as a client/cpe. I have never seen them do anything with an AP, other
than BE one. Dis you know that was what the SST-PR-1 was before?

The Sillycon Valley has a pretty high percentage of Technically savvy users

It's not a quick-connect...just a pass-through. If you want access to the
RJ45 jack on the CPE, you've got to take the whole weatherproof boot off.
That makes a big difference as to what I'm wanting to do.
With the quick-connect pigtail, CPEs can be assembled, terminated and
configured in
I suppose that the only real difference is that you can drive up within
a few hundred feet of any house with a unsecured wireless network, and
get online without anyone knowing (or caring most of the time). Its
