the rest of the WISP industry is becoming defacto public utility. You
really need to become familiar with the principle of common carriage. The

Hey guys, Last Mile Gear,
How is the RedMax GPS timing module coming? Is anyone else using GPS for
their RedMax deployments?
Thanks!

Are you setting up sectors in different parts of a town or is this for
one site? There are 3 non-overlapping channels you can use, but adding a
4th sector may require timing unless you can get away with the proper
channel arrangements and/or polarizations.

You can sync the two sectors together using a cable then use the other
non-overlapping channel on the omni. Obviously, if you add another
sector you'll need a timing device.

Thats what I thought Eric, we're in need of the cables now.

I'm looking to compute the theoretical mesh limit throughput for dual
radio layouts. Does this look right?
Dual radio, egress at end of chain: 1-2-3-4-5e
Sustained throughput (min): 35 mbps / 10 hops to end egress = 3-4 mbps
Peak throughput (max): 35 mbps / 5 nodes to end egress =

If they got the availabilty information from providers, why would it be
invaluable, if the intent to use the data was to let providers know where

THEY ALREADY HAVE THE DATA YOU COLLECTED IT FROM THEM!!! DUH!!!
From our experience, we believe it is not possible.

My understanding is that the 532 is being replaced with the 600 series, that

2. The PowerPC platform is suppose to the be the fastest, with the
lower processor in terms of MHZ. However, there are plenty of other
options, such as x86 solutions out there that will give you the speed

When you say dual radio... are you saying two radios devoted to the mesh
layer, or one radio devoted to meshing and one devoted to client access?
We have found in our tests that when two radios are devoted to meshing
the results are a little higher than your results below.
One test reports:

Entry into mines are covered under federal regulations and require training
prior to entry.
All equipment installed in a mine environment must be intrisically safe and

Equipment bonding is extremely important.

Someone else mentioned explosion proof being a requirement for some
mining environments.
Anyone know anything about this? And whether or not there are wifi
