 Robert,



 Still missing some relevent detail...



 New WISP uses 2.4 sectors.

 Is the Old WISP boy also using 2.4G sectors?



 As well, is the Rocket gear Single Pol or MIMO dual pol gear?

 Expecially, is the new provider's 5.8G PTP and Rocket Sectors MIMO?



 Legally- Part15 means everyone must deploy assuming the risk that there
 could be interference. There are two potential outcomes. 1) Coordination and
 cooperation or 2) survival of the fittest. This might also come down to who
 has the best contract with the grain towers. Whether anyone gained solid
 non-interference clauses or spectrum exclusivity clauses in their contracts,
 versus hand shake deals.



 I dont agree with the assessment that the problem is the Old Boy's bad
 design or unwillingness to change. (see below for justification)



 The fact is, he was there first and had the flexibility to design optimally
 for his need, and there was really no need for him to design for the new

 Both parties are equally obligated to build their networks as interference

 Whats less efficient? Dual Omnis each single pol, or two sectors with dual

We use linux and windows.  They all run for years without problems.  Not 
sure what you guys are doing to cause any server to have problems once a 
week but its your problem not windows.  Most likely hardware or lack of 
understanding of the person managing it.

Its silly to think any main stream OS is incapable of operating properly

only because I have not taken the steps to go to a different billing

I can say that I had at least 2 to 3(most of the time way more)

Since I started hosting the websites and mail server on Linux in the last 
two years, I have never had a cell phone alert that anything is down! I

Never an issue with any of them.

One Windows server - for ONLY Quickbooks.  I have issues with it at

Rights to add a printer for the CPA.  Rights for IE's security

request. The only device the customer had to do routing is a Netgear GSM7324 
Layer 3 switch. The routing is working for TCP and UDp packets but one 
application they use uses Multicasting. The multicast packets are not passing 
across the Layer 3 switch. Best I can tell I have multicasting setup on the 
switch but documentation is scarce. Anyone try this before? Good or Bad?

Re: [WISPA] More Spectrum!!

The pricing better come WAY WAY WAY down if multiple people can access
the same spectrum. The only way the current prices are justified is
because the access is exclusive.

 Folks, here is the real opportunity that we need to be focusing on
  
 http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2010/12/white-spaces-could-expand-beyond-unused-tv-spectrum.ars
  There may be no more important item for wisps to unite in their focus on 
 than this.   If we can start to use other white space spectrum - or even 
 scraps of licensed spectrum that are going unused - we will have all the 
 spectrum we need.
  Time to roll!

Re: [WISPA] bandwidth provider at Westin

2010-12-30 Thread Mike Hammett

http://www.westinbuilding.com/telecom/tenants.cfm

https://www.peeringdb.com/private/facility_view.php?id=71

Those aren't even complete.  For example, Cogent is in the building, but 
not on either of those lists.  You'll just have to ask the carriers if 
they're there.


I think what suite you're in will be important as well.

[WISPA] Figuring it out

2010-12-30 Thread Forbes Mercy
Our network has a Ubiquiti 3.65 backhaul through an Adtran smart switch 
then to four rocket M5's plus some 2.4GHz radios plus a backhaul to 
another town.

Earlier this week we started getting calls from the Rocket customers who 
said their speeds were slow, primarily two of them pointing nearly the 
same direction, both have about 20 on them.  We worked on the settings 
for the backhaul... fixed.  Then today it started again.  Speedtest on 
three MB customers are 365K down and 1.5MB up.  The backhaul is pulling 
40MB and the pings to those complaining are perfect.  Another 5MB 
customer, 600K down and 800K up.

We don't know where to look, the switch is fairly new could that be it 
or could it be the radios pointing roughly the same direction are 
interfering but not affecting pings which is the normal symptom for 
that? vertical separation is 30 feet between the two rockets, one a 120 
the other a 90.  Any ideas?

Are all of your customers on that sector experiencing problems?  Had any storms

Do a speed test from the Rocket APs.  Maybe from the switch if it was
Mikrotik...

Need to find out where the issue lies.  Could be ethernet to the BH,
ethernet to the Rocket, or the wireless from Rocket to the customer.
