Zack,
WISPA is a trade organization...if you care what it says, then join. It is
not a business (I'll shop there if you offer better customer service), it is
not a gym member (I'll join if you get this piece of equipment), it is a
trade organization. It is member run, as all trade organizations
Part-15 used to do the same things WISPA does. However, I think most of the
people with Part-15 that did this left to form WISPA.

Zack and Ralph,
The WISPA Board encourages all members to help develop our Association. As
you know the WISPA Board is made up of WISP Operators just like yourself and
I'm sure you know how precious our time is. When we go to the FCC with an
idea, we have to write a document requesting a change
Part-15 did NOT do the same things WISPA does. Part-15 lead it's membership
to believe it was for the INDUSTRY when all Part-15 did was to line it's own
pockets for PERSONAL GAIN. I do not see the same thing here.

This was in reference to the FCC trips, which I certainly remember from
before WISPA was formed.
I don't really see either orgranization doing anything else. Not that I'm
saying they should be doing something else, but that's all I see that either
organization has done (or is doing).
I have been contacted by more than one entity wanting me to sell Internet
service to a McDonalds location. Both claim to really be the one that their
client (McDonalds, their hotspot aggregator, etc.) prefers to work with.

You must deal with whoever is authoritative in that address space, probably
your immediate upstream provider.

A quicker workaround than convincing your IP provider to set the
reverse for you would be to use a remotely dedicated or co-located
server (or even a cheaper virtual server) to bounce all of your
outgoing and incoming mail through. That way you could set up
something like mta.yourdomain.com
To see who is authoritative for the address space, run a whois on the
addresses in question...
If they can't/won't help you (which, given the non-standard connection you
seem to be using, is a real possibility), then you're best off running email
and such services either on a colocated basis or

The best way would be to get your upstream to change their reverse
DNS. (They're the only ones who can do it.)
I was afraid of that. These satellite guys are kind of like an onion.
There are layers and layers where no one is sure who to work with or
where to go.
The ip address space is "owned" by a company that is three or four

Unless they've properly delegated reverse DNS (and it sounds like they
haven't) you'll either have to work your way up the chain,
It could depend if you are talking about a franchisee or corp store. Wayport
from what I remember took the prize back in 2004 and beyond to provide
Wi-Fi. That's who we bucked up against back then. Working with McD's is
never easy, even with inside help.

Once you figure out what they require, it's not so
bad. they require 5 static IP addresses per location.
The bandwidth requirement is 384k down / 128k up. It
is a good steady cash flow once you do a few of them.

The brand vanished from UK shelves four years ago amid declining sales and

Since you are on their network, I would simply relay the email
through their server, the lookup will be sent through for server
which should have a proper rDNS, you may need to set an SPF record
for the mail server, but that should work ( I have done it like that
on a dynamic IP before)
Someone else I know is selling them 2 megs. I would feel kinda bad selling
384 k to a hotspot.

Has anyone observed how much Mcdonalds hotspots are being used? Im yet to

The Internet connectivity for a McDonald's (and other national retail

use it for internal operations too, like employee training videos.

Yes, I assumed that was the case. Around here they have a T-1 going to each
store. I was commenting on the wi-fi part of the usage not being used. Now
that I am thinking about it last time I tried to access one outside there
was a charge for it. Joe
