Re: [WISPA] BGP / OSPF Routing Help

2010-08-10 Thread Blake Covarrubias
Hi,

You really didn't explain what issues you're experiencing in your test bed, but 
it sounds like you want simple iBGP peering. You'd do something like this on 
both routers.

/routing bgp peer
add instance=default remote-address=192.0.2.1 remote-as=36295 
update-source=loopback0

If you wanted to include R3 in your BGP config without having to build a full 
mesh between all routers then you want to make one router a Route Reflector 
(ie. R1).

## R1
/routing bgp instance set default client-to-client-reflection=yes

/routing bgp peer
add instance=default remote-address=192.0.2.2 remote-as=36295 
update-source=loopback0 route-reflect=yes

add instance=default remote-address=192.0.2.3 remote-as=36295 
update-source=loopback0 route-reflect=yes

## R2  R3
/routing bgp peer
add instance=default remote-address=192.0.2.1 remote-as=36295 
update-source=loopback0

R1 will advertise routes received from R2 to R3, and vice versa thus 
eliminating the need for the configuration of a full mesh.

I'd like to know more about the issues you're having in your test bed as iBGP 
is usually a fairly straightforward setup.

 I need some assistance...
 
 I currently have two upstream connections at 100MB with a full BGP feed 
 each into Mikrotik x86 routers wich are also running OSPF facing internally 
 - no routes are distributed from BGP to OSPF.  The two BGP routers are 
 located in two different cities and do not share BGP information between 
 themselves - they are basically used to advertise out the networks to 
 control the flow of traffic coming into our network.  Same upstream 
 provider so they would have the same outgoing tables anyway.  We use OSPF 
 path costs to direct outgoing traffic to the closest BGO router and 
 basically the networks advertised follow the same paths in as out.  The 
 /21s are advertised on both BGP routers with the /24s advertised to steer 
 the inbound traffic through the same router the outbound traffic goes out.
 
 Ok, that all works textbook style, no problems easy to manage for both OSPF 
 (one internal area) and BGP. 
 
 Now we need more bandwidth and have reached out to grab another provider 
 with 100MB circuit in another city.  This is a different provider than the 
 other two existing BGP routers are peered with and now there is a desire to 
 have the BGP routers on my network exchange routes and select the best 
 outgoing router based on the full BGP routing tables.  It's kind of hard to 
 explain without the picture of the network to understand so here is a quick 
 hand-drawn sketch of what the network layout looks like. Sorry its a mess 
 just did it real quick while typing this email  
 http://www.brevardwireless.com/files/networkpic.pdf
 
 I'm not really worried about router #3 participating in the BGP table 
 exchanges because I will soon consolidate router #2 and #3 into the same 
 router and combine bandwidth feeds into one fiber as well.  So for sake of 
 discussion BGP router #3 does not exist, I drew it for completeness of my 
 current situation.  I'm guessing I need to upgrade the tower routers on 
 tower C and E to routers powerful enough to handle BGP and I have placed 
 RB1100 on each so they are there.  Not interested in hearing about my 
 router selections, just how to configure routing protocols to accomplish my 
 goals (thanks).  We have attempted in testbed with 4 BGP routers in a row 
 like they are on the network map with a full feed on each end and we are 
 having a lot of luck.  Not sure if our testbed is fouled or it we just need 
 more of a BGP clue.  Either way, some assistance would be greatly 
 appreciated.
 
 My preference is to not have BGP and OSPF exchange routes.  Since the BGP 
 routers traverse the middle of my network I'll let OSPF do its magic of 
 getting to the closest gateway and then let BGP direct it from there.  Once 
 a packet hits any BGP router it will not have to cross a non-BGP router 
 before it goes out in all cases.
 
 I have considered professional consultation and will need to go there 
 pending no internal progress on reaching our goals.  I'd rather ask first 
 and learn myself and be able to manage what I have running without having 
 outside 3rd party reliance.  Most of you probably understand that decision 
 :)
 
 Any way, if you have read this far and suffered through my network pic then 
 thank you very much.

You could do it a couple ways.  First, use BGP multihop inside your
network to connect all three routers.  Second, use a tunnel to connect
them with normal BGP.  Then, traffic will go out the best BGP route.

Re: [WISPA] Mesh

2010-08-10 Thread Ralph
Never asked because we don't use them for making the mesh.  We use only
Tropos, although 3 systems we did for another company required Cisco
product. I will never deploy Cisco mess(h) again-LOL.

The Peps are the CPEs we use. In a muni mesh, the CPE radios are clients,
not part of the mesh.

The Pep CPEs work great with Tropos and the Peps were actually the original
recommended CPE for use with Google WiFi in Mountain View when they began.

Out of curiosity - what mesh algorithm does Pepwave actually use?

Re: [WISPA] 4G carrier for carriers

2010-08-10 Thread Blake Bowers
Although they do use that satellite word a lot, elsewhere in
their page they talk about 40,000 cell sites - as in possibly
they are doing their backhaul using satellite, but their last mile
by terrestrial?

I don't have a clue, but it appears they have a fairly big slug
of money.

One big warning flag I saw was they were talking about their
satellite being built by Boeing right now - only one?  No backup?

[WISPA] Nv2 wireless TDMA protocol

2010-08-10 Thread Scott Carullo
Sounds interesting.  If UBNT and them could work together they would have 
something between the hardware and the OS

The most important benefits of Nv2 are:

- Increased speed
- More client connections in PTM environments
- Lower latency
- No distance limitations
- No penalty for long distances

More information on Nv2:

Interesting.
Well, I still believe, RFCs and open standards are the only way to go when 
building mesh networks.
Everything else leads to a vendor lock in.

But nevertheless it is interesting what proprietary vendor mesh solutions do 
and how well they perform.

Is there any way to find out if one mesh solution will interact with a 
different vendor's solution?

[WISPA] 5 GHz Canopy and 900 MHz

2010-08-10 Thread Mike Hammett
  I'm guessing the chance is about as close to zero as you can get, but...

I have some 5 GHz Canopy on a water tower and they are having 
communications issues on their 900 MHz SCADA system.  Their solution is 
to unplug my stuff for an hour or two to see if it goes away.

Their problems started the same time I lost GPS on my CMM...  I'm 
assuming mother nature.

I changed out a 5.2 GHz link with a 5.7 GHz link and put in a SyncPipe 
Parasitic.  Not exactly anything that could interfere with 900 MHz that 
I can think of.  Of course their vendor doesn't see it my way.

What chance is it that I'm to blame?

Could also be some other source recently installed that's hosing the SCADA and

I had a similar issue except it worked in my benefit. I gave them IP

They never did find the issue with the 900MHz but all is well.

Re: [WISPA] UBNT thoughts

2010-08-10 Thread Mark Nash - Lists
Where we have seen a difference in value of equipment is in the failure/repair 
rate.  Ours is horrible.  The success or failure of build-em-yourself radios 
depends GREATLY on the quality of the install/installer (we have alot of 
StarOS, alot of weatherproofing tape, alot of pigtails, alot of jumpers).  

With UBNT, we are hoping to get a good balance between price of CPE and reduce 
the chance of carelessness costing us a service call down the road.  For 
instance, I used Tranzeo for a while (a couple hundred of them - integrated 
antenna models), and those CPE either worked or died, but never had install 
quality problems.

So, there is value in equipment if it facilitates easy quick installs and 
doesn't require a service call later because of a stupid pigtail not being 
connected to the radio quite right.

  Those prices are crazy... yes.. but the are here and I believe that they will 
stay like this for a while.. ATT is fighting to  compensate for it's declining 
business in phone lines. and Comcast is eagerly looking to eat ATT's lunch.

  I agree with you about sticking with Moto if and when they come thru.. but 
you will also have to calculate your ROI..

  I don't understand your comment about Moto having sync and same Throughput as 
UBNT MIMO ? ... are you referring to PMP430 ... I thought that was 802.11n  
MIMO as well. Would love to hear some comparison for feedback on the PMP430

  The links we are putting up are capable of doing 30-75meg (tcp thruput) in 
20mhz channel and about  60-150meg (tcp thuput) in 40mhz channel. The gear is 
cheap.. so we are choosing to build towers/pop  to service a 5mile radius tops. 
The trick is to use the dual polarity antennas (from UBNT) and with the M 
radios, rather than trying to hack some sort of a hybird.. (there are folks who 
are doing that for transition purposes). The equipment is in-expensive... so 
why do an Omni . I am not so worried about the plastic radios, I am also 
not looking for them to last 10 years either... 

  So far, we have not seen any issues in running VOIP on these links either... 
but then again, we are not needing to put 200 subs on a single AP either.

  For right now, they are a great tool in the tool bag, until someone else 
steps up to the plate. So far all of the other MIMO, 802.11n radio producers 
have offered rather expensive PTP solutions only... It is hard to figure out it 
is worth it to pay an extra $1500 or $2000 per link for another mfg's MIMO PTP 
solution vs UBNT. Time will tell meanwhile for us.. have to use what is 
available...

  Supposedly, Firing up UBNT Radios with Airmax on them, gives a lot of grief 
to Moto Canopy and  I am very much interested to see how their 802.11n 
implementation on 900mhz performs what they are showing on their spec 
sheets is definetly making everyone shake their heads and say...  I really 
want to see that to believe it.. ...we will find in out about 45 days when the 
radios become available in the US.

  Loosely speaking, don't let anyone tell you that there is value in Equipment, 
I have a backroom full of $150,000(each)Redback Routers which are not worth 
$1500each any moreFor a WISP or ISP the value is purely in the subscriber 
base there is some intrinsic value in equipment, to the degree that can be 
leveraged to add more revenue generating services..

Re: [WISPA] 4G carrier for carriers

2010-08-10 Thread Fred Goldstein
At 8/10/2010 10:15 AM, Blake Bowers wrote:
Although they do use that satellite word a lot, elsewhere in
their page they talk about 40,000 cell sites - as in possibly
they are doing their backhaul using satellite, but their last mile

I don't have a clue, but it appears they have a fairly big slug
of money.

One big warning flag I saw was they were talking about their
satellite being built by Boeing right now - only one?  No backup?

Lightsquared is the new name of a company that used to be called 
SkyTerra.  They are and have been in the satellite business.  The 
mobile satellite business did not take off the way the FCC thought it 
might a decade and a half ago, when it allocated frequencies to 
them.  You might remember Iridium, for instance.  The birds flew, but 
the business didn't, and it carried on as a bankruptcy asset, hardly 
encouraging new competition.  And cellular spread more widely than 
anticipated, with better roaming, making satellite less 
necessary.  SkyTerra had some customers too, but didn't exactly set 
the world on fire.

So for the past decade, the satellite industry has been asking for 
permission to use their frequencies for auxiliary terrestrial 
component (ATC) operation.  In other words, ground-based mobile 
networks, like cellular.  The National Broadband Plan supports this, 
so the FCC is likely to allow SkyTerra -- LightSquared to recycle 
their frequencies in the 1.4/1.6 GHz range.

SkyTerra plans 40,000 cells to cover 92% of the population; this 
includes both coverage (rural) and capacity (urban, after 
cell-splitting to accommodate growth) cells.  Satellites can then 
provide fill-in coverage outside of terrestrial cell-site range, if 
you have a dual-mode phone.

LightSquared's business model is to sell wholesale, while MVNOs do 
the retail sales.  This makes a lot of sense, since setting up a 
retail network is costly, while there are existing retail networks 
(e.g., store chains and carriers who don't own wireless networks of 
their own) that could easily take on a new product line, and handle 
the billing for their own customers.  The top two CMRSs (ATTM and 
VZW) don't want to sell wholesale, leaving MVNO support mostly to 
Sprint; this new network could substantially improve that market.

I don't know their backhaul strategy but I expect it'll be like 
Sprint's and T-Mobile's -- use competitive facilities where 
available, private microwave when possible, and ILEC Special Access 
when all else fails.  That last resort has been something like 90% of 
the time, which is why there's so much of a push to regulate Special 
Access rates.  VZ and ATT make their real profits nowadays from those 
leased lines, selling to ISPs and wireless carriers.  It's basically 
an unregulated monopoly.

Well, We have installed two, On two different towers.
First one locked up hard. Its on a huge tower, And power was already in place 
so that was a trip to the top to unplug it and let it sit for a few. Was on a 
UPS and everything.

Second one somehow got toasted. Clear blue day and all the ports were dead but 
one. All other gear on the tower was fine. This same tower has had a 493AH on 
it for about a year prior, And it hasn't missed a beat.

Just doesn't seem to be as stable as some of the other RB's we have used.

by terrestrial?

I don't have a clue, but it appears they have a fairly big slug
of money.

One big warning flag I saw was they were talking about their
satellite being built by Boeing right now - only one?  No backup?

  
  
Lightsquared is the new name of a company that used to be called 
SkyTerra.  They are and have been in the satellite business.  The 
mobile satellite business did not take off the way the FCC thought it 
might a decade and a half ago, when it allocated frequencies to 
them.  You might remember Iridium, for instance.  The birds flew, but 
the business didn't, and it carried on as a bankruptcy asset, hardly 
encouraging new competition.  And cellular spread more widely than 
anticipated, with better roaming, making satellite less 
necessary.  SkyTerra had some customers too, but didn't exactly set 
the world on fire.

So for the past decade, the satellite industry has been asking for 
permission to use their frequencies for "auxiliary terrestrial 
component" (ATC) operation.  In other words, ground-based mobile 
networks, like cellular.  The National Broadband Plan supports this, 
so the FCC is likely to allow SkyTerra -- LightSquared to recycle 
their frequencies in the 1.4/1.6 GHz range.

SkyTerra plans 40,000 cells to cover 92% of the population; this 
includes both "coverage" (rural) and "capacity" (urban, after 
cell-splitting to accommodate growth) cells.  Satellites can then 
provide fill-in coverage outside of terrestrial cell-site range, if 
you have a dual-mode phone.

LightSquared's business model is to sell wholesale, while MVNOs do 
the retail sales.  This makes a lot of sense, since setting up a 
retail network is costly, while there are existing retail networks 
(e.g., store chains and carriers who don't own wireless networks of 
their own) that could easily take on a new product line, and handle 
the billing for their own customers.  The top two CMRSs (ATTM and 
VZW) don't want to sell wholesale, leaving MVNO support mostly to 
Sprint; this new network could substantially improve that market.

I don't know their backhaul strategy but I expect it'll be like 
Sprint's and T-Mobile's -- use competitive facilities where 
available, private microwave when possible, and ILEC Special Access 
when all else fails.  That last resort has been something like 90% of 
the time, which is why there's so much of a push to regulate Special 
Access rates.  VZ and ATT make their real profits nowadays from those 
leased lines, selling to ISPs and wireless carriers.  It's basically 
an unregulated monopoly.

[WISPA] MT question

2010-08-10 Thread Forbes Mercy
You're basic 433 with an SR2, Winbox sees both but the R isn't by the 
SR2.  We checked bridge then port and they're all set up right, there is 
the hash mark next to the SR2 but they won't bridge traffic, no one 
registers and field tests don't detect the radio.  So is it the board or 
the SR2?

Can you see Lightsquared selling wholesale to a WISP?


For enough money, yes.  But MVNO deals tend to be on the large side, 
so there could be a sizeable minimum commitment.  If it's just a data

great, which could help keep it small.

Re: [WISPA] RB1100

2010-08-10 Thread Scott Carullo
In all fairness, other than a hardware issue, we have not had a blip in the 
performance of the RB1100.  It has done exactly what we needed it to do.  It's 
weakness for us lies in the fact that it is as sensitive to lightning as the 
RB411s seem to be which is sorta a problem.  As far as it running fine OS wise 
- no problems with all ports lit up...   What have you seen unstable about 
them, personally?  I'm not interested in hearsay.  And if you have one you 
don't want I'd be happy to take it.

It's just an industrial appliance. I sell the same hardware. The only real

Is Wireless card set to AP Bridge?  Can you put the card in Scan and see
anything else?  Are the other devices in the scan list within the right
signal levels?  If so, set the card back to ap Bridge and look for the ESSID
on a laptop or other client device.

If nothing shows in scan (and something should be there) then look at the
possibility of the card not working.  If scan shows fine, then look further
into the configuration of the wireless interface. R only shows when
something is connected to it.  In the Wireless interface, click on Reset
configuration and see if that clears the problem.

My first bet is that you want this device to bridge (since the wlan1
and an ether are in a bridge) but you do not have WDS enabled and the
station is set to station-wds, which your AP is configured to do.

The MikroNOC is a great appliance.  If you should need even higher port
density, I have those available as well.  One box is capable of 24 GigE
ports (with combinations of copper and/or fiber based SFP GigE ports).

It is, but better pricing and you have Titan support (which is TOP
NOTCH).  Not suggesting Dennis isn't (no personal experience there), but
Titan is a great company to work with.

Re: [WISPA] RB1100

2010-08-10 Thread Chuck Hogg
It's the same.  All these distributors NAME their gear as their own devices.  
One distributor will support you without the added fees, and the other will 
charge you the fees.  It's cheaper at Titan.  When I owned QuickLink Wireless, 
it was these types of things that separated us from other distributors; how the 
customer was supported.

I will withhold any comment towards Dennis for two reasons, 1) I have never had 
direct experience with Dennis and his support.  2) nothing good will come out 
of what I have to say.  On the other hand, I have worked with Jim Patient and 
Mike Delp before without much issue.

All this hardware is from AxiomTek.  It's readily available for import.  If you 
want to bypass any of these distributors you can, and build it up for around 
$1k or maybe a little less (these prices fluctuate like memory and processors). 
 There are a handful of master distributors that will sell them to you.

www.axiomtek.com/products/ViewProduct.asp?view=429
www.axiomtek.com/products/ListProduct.asp?ptype1=209ptype2=231ptype3=233

You can also find multiple other platforms by other manufacturers that will 
work just fine.  We built one for SOCOMM that was pretty impressive and cost 
around $5k.  Way overkill, but it's what they wanted.

[WISPA] Ubiquiti antenna testing yet?

2010-08-10 Thread Tom DeReggi
The Ubiquiti dual pol antennas have been around for a while now.
Has anyone gained any real world testing results regarding difference in 
performance for MIMO based on which antenna used.

The two Ubiquiti sector types 16/17db versus 19/20db models have 
signficantly different specs on Cross pol rejection.
As well, NanoStation makes a good 45 deg sector, at 14db, (14dbi + 22dbm = 
Max EIRP 36db for PTMP) with a bit less cross pol rejection than the others.

From past experience, in any MIMO product in general, using PTP, I've 
observed that maximizing the Cross pol isolation is very advantageous to 
gain a highest performing links.
(so pols dont interfere with each other at high modulations). In general, 
I'd get numbers like anything less than 35db isolation would result in 
quality loss.
BUT... I've never tested with Ubiquiti yet.

So my question here is Have people been successful using the smaller 
16/17db Sector antennas successfully with MIMO?

I can do the math and RF engineering, and I can predict that the larger 
19/20 db antenna's have much better cross pol rejection, and combined with 
the third party shield made for them, to increase Front to Back ratio 
signficantly, they are an ideal choice for serious cell site deployments.

But, for less critical smaller area deployments, I can see the adantage of 
using the smaller antennas to save space vertically.
So just wondering what experience others are having with the 16/17db 
Ubiquiti Sectors. To be clear, the gain of the antenna is NOT my concern 
here. I interested in whether the Cross Pol rejection is good enough on 
shorter sector antenna to gain good MIMO quality.

Note: short antenna speced at 22db cross pol isolation, whereas taller 
antenna speced at 28db cross pol.

Hi Tom,
Call me naive...not quiet sure what you are asking. specifically...

We have a number of the smaller Ubiquiti Sectors in use Prior to 
your email it never occurred to me that I have to worry about cross pol 
rejection with MIMO antennas... But on the other hand I am also not 
trying to put 10miles link using those antennas

All I can say they work perfectly fine..

http://www.veracityglobal.com/media/1181/outreach%20max%20datasheet%201_0.pdf

In theory, it looks really really cool, to help solve getting APs up to 
400-500ft and still support 100mb ethernet.
I was thinking about trying them for a deployment, to cost effectively build 
out an existing tower.

My concern is whether they can hold up for Outdoor tower deployments. Can 
they survey the more harsh exposure that a Tower creates. (such as grounding 
issues, Electric buildup in air during lightning storms, connectors that 
dont oxidize and erode over time, etc.
I also dont like devices that are shaped like. 
cat5___I--I  Cat5
 
  II
BECAUSE its harder to keep the water and gel from dripping into connectors. 
(I know, dont use gel cable for the upper verticle cable run).

I prefer layout shapes like   I---I
 I_I
 l   l
CAt5A   CAt5B

BECAUSE BOTH connectors can be on the bottom with drip loops before comming 
up into the device's jacks.

Anyway... My point is If I use these, am I likely going to have to climb 
the tower evey 6 months to replacethem when they fail, or have others had 
luck with them lasting long and reliably up on a tower?
I recognize that these are not waterproof spec'd, so they would need to be 
inside a third party enclosure.  I was thinking I'd have one enclosure that 
I housed 3 or 4 of these Outreachmax units.

I was also thinking, that I'd have the TOP cable run near the full 300ft, so 
that the OutreachMax units were as close to the ground as they could be, to 
shorten the tower climb, if they had to be replaced.

I'm not really asking about various ethernet extension products, as that was 
covered by the other thread, Im more asking specifically about how the 
OutrachMax product specifically works. Well or not.

On their website, it was positioned more as an indoor POE product.

 It is, but better pricing and you have Titan support (which is TOP
 NOTCH).  Not suggesting Dennis isn't (no personal experience there), but
 Titan is a great company to work with.

[WISPA] Free 19 shock mounted shipping rack.

2010-08-10 Thread Ralph
I have been keeping this rack around for a long time, thinking I could use
it somewhere but I have decided to give it away to anyone on the list who
wants it.  The guts of it are mounted on rubber shock mounts and it is about
3 feet high.

It is great for making an Emergency POP in and using to drop in to a
temporary location. It was designed to ship DataRadio wireless data systems
in.
If you want it, it is free. You'll have to pick it up near Atlanta or pay
the freight charges to get it to you. One great thing is that it needs no
packing. It's its own packing!

If you want to see it, I have it on Craigslist locally for 25 bucks.

 It's the same.  All these distributors NAME their gear as their own
 devices.  One distributor will support you without the added fees, and the
 other will charge you the fees.  It's cheaper at Titan.  When I owned
 QuickLink Wireless, it was these types of things that separated us from
 other distributors; how the customer was supported.

 I will withhold any comment towards Dennis for two reasons, 1) I have never
 had direct experience with Dennis and his support.  2) nothing good will
 come out of what I have to say.  On the other hand, I have worked with Jim
 Patient and Mike Delp before without much issue.

 All this hardware is from AxiomTek.  It's readily available for import.  If
 you want to bypass any of these distributors you can, and build it up for
 around $1k or maybe a little less (these prices fluctuate like memory and
 processors).  There are a handful of master distributors that will sell them
 to you.

 www.axiomtek.com/products/ListProduct.asp?ptype1=209ptype2=231ptype3=233

 You can also find multiple other platforms by other manufacturers that will
 work just fine.  We built one for SOCOMM that was pretty impressive and cost
 around $5k.  Way overkill, but it's what they wanted.

Hi Faisal and the list

 

We have also been using UBNT quite a bit lately over the last couple of years.  
I’m anxious to try some of the 900 and 3.65 when the time is right.

Nano 2 and Nano 5 have been in our arsenal for as long as they have been out.  
Never had a lick of trouble with them other than a WPA issue on the very first 
ones. It got fixed quickly in firmware.  

 

Have now been using Nano 5M for some short links as well. They seem to work 
well, giving great throughput,  but we have had a couple that want to lock up. 
Haven’t put the watchdog on yet.  I think the issue is likely with WPA- seems 
like that has been an issue with several manufacturers who use that chipset.  I 
think the UBNT forum has some threads on that. We try to keep them on the 
latest firmware (and sometimes on the beta ).

 

We have a PowerStation 5 link with 2  2’ dishes going 20+ miles and it just 
hasn’t missed a beat.  Recently lightning took out all the Tranzeo and 
Deliberant on the tower and only 2 things kept on ticking: The Canopy AP and 
the PowerStation 5.  A lot of our old Deliberant and Tranzeo gear is getting 
eaten by lightning and some of the Deliberant boxes (the gray ones) are 
beginning to leak and corrode inside, so we are switching to UBNT as that 
happens.

 

We have a long Rocket 5M link up with 2’ dishes and it works pretty well so 
far. Because of the 20 mile distance, we need to increase dish size though. 
Signal isn’t good enough to use Airmax.

 

Just put up a tower cluster of 3 Rocket 2 radios/sectors replacing some 
Deliberant 2700s. So far so good, but don’t have enough users on it yet to tell 
about any issues with the sector patterns.

 

We have never used a piece of uncertified gear!  I value my license (Amateur 
one) too much to get involved with illegal activities and the FCC. They tend to 
go harshly on Licensees for violations even in other services.  The Latvians 
make great routers (we use them almost exclusively) but I wouldn’t touch their 
wireless with a 10 foot pole.  There is plenty of reasonably priced great gear 
out there whose manufacturers do go the extra distance to get certified.

 

Just my .02 from a good old Southern boy.

H.which models .?  What version of firmware. ?

We have been using the M gear...and have not seen any lockups

Fwiw...the also have watchdog built in for reboots...

You might have something philosophical there Bob. Do we choose equipment that 
is like us - lots of trouble and need plenty of attention? LOL!

Re: [WISPA] Ubiquiti antenna testing yet?

2010-08-10 Thread Robert West
Working fine for me as well.  Depending on the terrain, we use the smaller
sectors as well as the larger ones.  Small sectors going 6+ miles in flat
open ground, larger ones are going 12+.  With some trees.

Hi Tom,
Call me naive...not quiet sure what you are asking. specifically...

We have a number of the smaller Ubiquiti Sectors in use Prior to your
email it never occurred to me that I have to worry about cross pol rejection
with MIMO antennas... But on the other hand I am also not trying to put
10miles link using those antennas

All I can say they work perfectly fine..
:)

Regards.

 The Ubiquiti dual pol antennas have been around for a while now.
 Has anyone gained any real world testing results regarding difference 
 in performance for MIMO based on which antenna used.

 The two Ubiquiti sector types 16/17db versus 19/20db models have 
 signficantly different specs on Cross pol rejection.
 As well, NanoStation makes a good 45 deg sector, at 14db, (14dbi + 
 22dbm = Max EIRP 36db for PTMP) with a bit less cross pol rejection than
the others.

  From past experience, in any MIMO product in general, using PTP, 
  I've
 observed that maximizing the Cross pol isolation is very advantageous 
 to gain a highest performing links.
 (so pols dont interfere with each other at high modulations). In 
 general, I'd get numbers like anything less than 35db isolation would 
 result in quality loss.
 BUT... I've never tested with Ubiquiti yet.

 So my question here is Have people been successful using the 
 smaller 16/17db Sector antennas successfully with MIMO?

 I can do the math and RF engineering, and I can predict that the 
 larger
 19/20 db antenna's have much better cross pol rejection, and combined 
 with the third party shield made for them, to increase Front to Back 
 ratio signficantly, they are an ideal choice for serious cell site
deployments.

 But, for less critical smaller area deployments, I can see the 
 adantage of using the smaller antennas to save space vertically.
 So just wondering what experience others are having with the 16/17db 
 Ubiquiti Sectors. To be clear, the gain of the antenna is NOT my 
 concern here. I interested in whether the Cross Pol rejection is good 
 enough on shorter sector antenna to gain good MIMO quality.

 Note: short antenna speced at 22db cross pol isolation, whereas taller 
 antenna speced at 28db cross pol.

 It's the same.  All these distributors NAME their gear as their

 fees, and the other will charge you the fees.  It's cheaper at Titan.
 When I owned QuickLink Wireless, it was these types of things that 
 separated us from other distributors; how the customer was supported.

 This is exactly the point I was making.  Titan is a great company to 
 work with (this is from my own experience).  My company is good to 
 work with as well, though I didn't mention that.  There are several 
 companies out there that sell this (and other) hardware.  The only 
 difference is the company you end up dealing with.  For some, Dennis 
 is their choice..there is NO secret sauce in the routers themselves.
