Re: [WISPA] RIP
Is the slowness on older routers? Do you have any that are the AH boards that are more than 400 MHz? Have you watched the processor from before RIP to after? Could be that the updates are overwhelming the older boards.

Re: [WISPA] eratic ethernet connection
There used to be a long-wire setting in the RouterOS under Interface->Ehternet. I do not remember if it is still there or not. It should be set if the wire is over 100' or so.

Re: [WISPA] eratic ethernet connection
The MT Routerboard 4-port NIC with Via Rhine chip is awsome to reach 450ft over ethernet. We had been told in the past that it was needed to have the via-rhine on both sides of wire, but in actuallity we learned the opposite, and have been very effective with having the long-range ethernet card just on one side of wire. Otherwise, consider... If there is noise on the Ethernet? Use thick shielded Superior Essex DB cable, and you can push the limits of Ethernet. Otherwise consider calculating loss, with Demarctech's cable voltage loss calculator, and increasing voltag slightly to compensate, in case it is voltage and not just ethernet. Lastly look for sources of noise injection, and block it. .

Hi John, That board provides all the info via snmp... Which means that how you 'pull' out that info and 'monitor' the threshold it very flexible and a number of packages would do it. If you are an open source person... Cacti w/ Threshold plugin / Openmns / Nagios will allow you to do anything you want... If you are a 'windows' person. (mostly pay software..) IPSwitch Whatsup Gold, and a number of snmp monitors will let you do what you are looking for Here is a link that will help you understand on how it is done.. http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/threshol.htm If you just want someone else to set it up for you ...

Re: [WISPA] Remote Monitoring and ALERTING of battery levels...will these work??
The easiest way to monitor whether you have outside power is to plug any device you can ping into the same outlet your batteries charge from. Power goes out and ping response stops. We used to use a lot of D-Link G810 bridges so that's what we happen to have a lot of and use but anything you can ping will work. - cw John McDowell wrote: > We've deployed one of the RMS version 1 boards from > www.remotemonitoringsystems.ca > This has given us visibility of voltage levels on our batteriesBUT, does > anyone know how to have these devices actually alert you when battery levels > are low or AC is off...etc? > > WE use PowerCode which has MRTG built in.
