That's fine if you have enough potential customers to saturate your ap's at the 11 meg speed. Out here we'll take anything we can get. If it slows down to 1 meg for a customer that's still much better than his dialup was. We have VERY few customers that get less than 1 meg of actual speed.

So Marlon, using what I perceive to be your ideas below, it's not too bad of a deal to put a marginal customer on (maybe not at -90, but maybe -80 or even -85, or do you think -85 is not even good enough?) so long as we have a clean link and we can make it with next to no packet loss? In my

As a general rule you should not consider any customer if the cannot achieve at least a 5.5 mbps connection. Consider the numbers below and then make your decision. At 11 mbps link you can transfer between 5.2 mbps and 6 mbps depending on a number of factors, so let's say 5 mbps for easy math.

The Ethernet standard maximum packet size is 1500 bytes (not counting the header). You can use jumbo frames in GigE applications, but not in 10/100, and not all switches support them, because there is no standard. Jeff Broadwick ImageStream 800-813-5123 x106 -Original Message- From:

I'm gonna disagree with Lonnie here. Kinda. We agree on the -75 dB thing. But on the number of customers I'm wa on the other side of the fence. Probably on the other side of the pasture too. Just in Odessa here we have something like 50 to 75 subs pulling from a single ap. It's an OLD

I dunno. I kinda disagree with those who think marginal is just fine. I can tell they do not compete against Qwest DSL or Charter cable. 512k, will get you no where and service that is up down in speeds will not get you subs when the real competition shows up to play in your sandbox. Party is
