RE: [WISPA] OT: Cell Phone Repeaters.

Scottie:

We did a U.S. Cellular repeating solution for a company here in North
Carolina.  We are authorized partners of Spotwave and were one of the
first companies to deploy in North Carolina.

The product has been pretty much hands off since day one (almost three
years now).  The client went from zero service inside their facility to
5 bars.

I'm not going to masquerade the fact; it was a little on the expensive
side by any measure but you are dealing with a FCC Licensed frequency;
we put in 1 donor unit and 2 repeaters.

I will be glad to give you a reference if you want to talk directly to a
customer that uses it.

We are extremely happy with the Spotwave product line and would not
hesitate to deploy it again should it be required.

The only thing is you only buy one carrier freq per unit; so you have
three carriers you want to enhance; you will have three donor units and
repeaters.

It me offlist if you want more...

have a boat dock that needs Verizon cell phone service repeated but have

Our local bank is set up that way too.  All card numbers are stored off 
site.  Not sure if we can send an invoice to them though, they get the 
notice in their cc statement.

BofA resells Cybersource. I find the subscription interface to be a  GREAT 
method of billing customers. I just set them up as a monthly  bill @ 
whatever amount with whatever the setup fee is.


The system bills the customer for you each month and emails them an 
invoice that you can customize. It also emails the customer when  their 
card is about to expire.


I check the system once a month or so to see what customers cards  have 
expired or failed.


The best part is that I don't have to store any credit cards onsite.  This 
reduces my liability and places it in BofAs hands.

RE: [WISPA] OT: Cell Phone Repeaters.

2007-09-06 Thread D. Ryan Spott
My father-in-law lives in Northern Idaho completely off-grid. He uses this
little device for his home phone:

http://www.coolproductz.com/

You plug your Cell-phone into it and it becomes a little CO for your home.
You plug the device into any of your home phone wires (as long as you are
not connected to the telco) and then all of the normal handsets plugged into
the phone wiring in your house can dial out via the cell phone.

My FIL has a yagi attached to his cell-socket to boost the gain to the
nearest cell tower, about 18 miles away.

We have one in our ambulance so the medics can use a normal wired princess
handset while performing patient care. (You would be amazed at how much
anxiety a high tech piece of equipment like a cell phone can bring to the
average firefighter/Medic!) The neighboring fire district runs a 900Mhz
portable phone so they can bring it into homes with them.

This device does not support fax or modems from what I can tell.

RE: [WISPA] OT: Cell Phone Repeaters.

2007-09-06 Thread Ty Carter Lightwave Communications
Glad I could help...

I'm not saying you can't do it with some other solution (unlicensed) but
you best be prepared for the consequences if the cell provider gets wind
of...They have spent millions of dollars in their infrastructure and
don't think for one minute they would not haul your company to court
over something like that.

As a matter a fact; when I was doing my first authorized deployment with
Spotwave; we had a conference call with US Cellular and even though
Spotwave was an authorized system on the US Cellular network; the
engineers would not give us coordinates or even identify the location of
the tower we were trying to repeat... They claimed it was proprietary
and a trade secret... and gave us NO assistance with anything.  They
also told us if they had one complaint about this equipment causing a
problem; they would come shut it down.

We had to give them contacts for the building where the equipment was.

Re: [WISPA] OT: Cell Phone Repeaters.

2007-09-06 Thread Blair Davis




In my area, there are a lot of people who have phones with external
antenna connectors. A lot of them have a 8-13db yagi outside, mounted
high, with a cable run and pigtail to connect to their phone. 

Verzion and Centennial, while not exactly happy about it, do provide
the needed info to get it working. Else the user will quit...

you are but what have YOU done for this industry ? What have you done for 
WISPA ? What have you done for this public list other then make it a less 
enjoyable place for others since you been around ?


It's easy for someon to come on here and blab their mouth and make the 
arrogant/obnoxious comments as you do at times when they don't do CRAP for 
this organization or this industry. You are one of those that is out for 
yourself. Your posts are meaningless to me at this point and I am not the 
only one who has this opinion.


I don't appreciate how you bash others with your petty posts about 
compliance or non-compliance, like you are 1 step above the ones that are 
either half way compliant or not compliant. Your motorola radios are FCC 
Certified but they also TRASH any useable band they operate in ! ! ! ! ! ! ! 
! Almost ANY non-compliant equipment builders out there operate systems that 
are much more co-location friendly, they allow multiple people in the areas 
to operate on the same frequencies. Stick a pipe in it already 
Compliant systems


Do me and 100s of others a favor and go do some work, keep your mouth shut 
unless you have something valuable to share. Apparently you have MUCH too 
much time on your hands.

Thanks Blake.. That is what I was dancing round in my post... there are

Please be aware there are legal implications for unauthorized repeating or
broadcasting of a cell providers frequency.

Have any of you guys installed cell phone repeaters for places before?

I

have a boat dock that needs Verizon cell phone service repeated but

have

no clue to really go about doing it. We have spoke to Wilson Antenna

and

they say we need at least a -80dB or so on our handheld cell phone to

be

able to repeat it. Just wondering if anyone else has done this before

and

what kind of results they have had? TIA.

My recommendation is we should take John Scriv's note
with serious and sincerety.  I recommend that someone
near Barbara give her a customer service inquiry
phone call and ask her is their anything that we can
do better in the future and how can we get her back.

Here is why:  The recent big GSA contract will offer
some of the WISPA members an opportunity to provide
services to the US federal government.  Therefore it
makes sense to find out why Barbara chose the
satellite services instead of WiSP type service.
Furthermore some WiSP also offer satellite so it will
be a good learning experience from a cutomer.

Those are my most humble recommendations.

Turns out this is basically a non-issue anyway. The postmaster there 
very much wanted to keep our service, but was told by the folks above 
her that the USPS is standardizing on a specific satellite service for 
all their rural locations, at least in this area. (One of our installers 
tried to sell another post office about fifteen miles away, and was told 
the same thing - someone in the USPS loves satellite.)


It makes sense, from the government's point of view - WISPs don't have 
100% coverage. I know of at least one other post office in our area that 
we can't service, and (as far as I know) neither can any other local 
WISP. Satellite may be slow and expensive, but you can't beat the 
coverage area. Meanwhile, since the Postal Service is getting hundreds 
(or thousands, maybe) of locations set up, I'm sure they negotiated a 
sweetheart price.

Be careful what you wish for.  What happens when your upstream say that your 
traffic goes to the bottom of  queue unless you pay an extra $x,xxx.xx per 
moth?   Will that make your customers happy?  Can you afford an extra charge 
to make sure that your address space is in the fast lane?


The biggest problem I see here is that I buy service from provider A who is 
peering with provider B.  I pay for the super fast connection from provider 
A because they are my upstream. I am trying to access a server on provider 
B.   Provider A is not on the fast lane with provider B because they did not 
want to pay the extra charge.   So in the long run my paying provider A for 
faster access is a waste for anything not on their network.  Now imagine 
this scenario if  your traffic crosses 6 different networks to get to its 
final designation.   I see companies like Google having a cow and buying the 
entire internet so they can control access from end to end.  They have 
already threatened to do this.

Not really. With the USPS, there's only one outfit handling your mail: 
the USPS. An Internet packet can pass through a half-dozen different 
companies' networks between endpoints. This is the equivalent of your 
Express Mail package from California to New York being delayed because 
you didn't pay extra to the truck driver in Iowa.

No different than if my provider says my rate goes up at the end of the 
month.  I hold them to the contract that I signed and if my contract is 
up I shop around for another provider.  You example would be the same as 
if A and B were not peered so if it was that crucial to have fast access 
to B you would find someone with a better 'peering' to B for your 
connection.

If you are a Costco member, their processing is dirt cheap...

If you pay the extra for the premium membership, then it's even better

When I listened to the FTC's Net Neutrality debate, both sides made sense.

One side was the content providers and the other side was the 
connectivity providers.


Content didn't want to pay, and connectivity was looking for payment for 
the use of their network.


I just want to know, where do I send the bill to?

I expect that 99% of the web traffic will continue exactly as it is

The whole point of this is that customers are more and more demanding 
QoS guarantees that are almost impossible to produce without being able 
to charge more for them, and for some applications are required.  

I'll give you an example VoIP.   In order for it to work well, VoIP 
packets need to be given priority.  Unfortunately if you don't charge 
extra for this priority traffic, then a certain segment of your customer 
base will figure out how to tag *all* of their packets for priority use.


Gaming would be another example.  During peak usage times, gamers suffer 
since latency goes up slightly just because links are in use.   If the 
gamer (or a large gaming server) wants to pay extra for a latency 
guarantee (delivered by prioritizing packets ahead of others), then so 
be it.


It is extremely costly to provide a network which will provide *at all 
times* extremely low latency and jitter for *all* traffic.   What most 
providers want to be able to do is to say to customers, if a little 
added jitter and latency during peak times is unacceptable, then pay us 
extra for that traffic and we will guarantee that it will be put at the 
first of the line.  If you don't pay us extra, your experience will 
continue to be about what it is today.

Ok  so I pay you the extra to guarantee  a certain minimum latency.  I if I 
am connecting to a server on another network how will you provide that?  You 
can not set the QoS for someone else's network much less 3 or 4 of them that 
my traffic has to cross to get to is final destination.

The maximum transmit power allowed on my units is 18dBm. The receive 
sensitivity all depends on what UBR your currently at. When I was aiming 
them I was able to achieve 54mb at -85 ish. This is with 1ft panels 
going about 1.5 miles.

RE: [WISPA] OT: Cell Phone Repeaters.

2007-09-06 Thread Scottie Arnett


Wow guys. Didn't mean to cause a rukus. Anyways, thanks to everyone that
constructively replied on and off list.

The boat dock sits down in a hollow and the reception is terrible. 1 bar in
most places if you hold your head just right. Wilson told us how to put our
phone in service mode to show the dB of the signal and it was around -93dB
on the dock. They said we needed it at least around -80dB or better. On the
hill above the dock, we raised up about 35ft in our bucket truck and got
-78dB or so; therefore, they will need a tower put up. The dock is about
200ft LOS from the top of the hill and Wilson says that their product will
reach about 250ft radius. They are planning on using a yagi to pick up the
signal and an omni to repeat it. Equipment pricing is going to be in the
$2000 to $3000 range from Wilson.

I want to buy this from a reputable company and make sure that it is legal.
I thought some of you guys may have done this type of work before and could
offer me some other alternatives or suggestions? Wilson says they can't be
for sure that it will work good at the dock because it is very near the
reach of their equipment. We have already spoke with Verizon and they do not
have a problem with it as long as its done within legal limits. Another dock
about 3 miles up the lake already has a Wilson system installed and working,
but they had a better receive signal than the dock I am working on.

Yea Charles, this is a nice boat dock with some $300,000+ house boats at it.
They are building a floating restaurant and have poured over a half mil
into it already and its not 3/4 of the way done. The repeater is to provide
service inside this restaurant and the houseboats around it.

2007-09-06 Thread Rick Harnish
Ralph,

I have placed you on moderation.  I will approve or disapprove all of your
posts to this public list.  I expect your cooperation in this matter.  By
the way, we did make a change to Article 2 of the Code of Ethics this
morning in our board meeting in response to your pleas.  I'm sure it isn't
enough to satisfy you but it is the best we can do at this time.  WISPA
represents all WISPs and will seek to guide them into compliance through
various means.  This will be continued discussion with the FCC on rule
modification, pressuring vendors to certify all systems and hardware and
educating the members on the importance of certification.  This will not be
a quick process and may take years to accomplish.  I hope you realize that
your comments are driving more people away from WISPA than they are
educating.  Please keep your comments and discussions civil.  While you may
be completely legal with your compliance, your tact and lack of politeness
on the list is disgraceful, thus in my opinion, you are no better than any
non-compliant WISP in our fold.  If you want to be perceived as a
professional then you need to start acting professional.

I have not moderated your posts on the member's only list as it is a private
list.  However, I expect the same degree of proper decorum on that list as
well.

Respectfully,
Rick Harnish
List Moderator

turned up the power somehow to make that shot.

Hi,

Does anyone know off the top of their head the maximum power output 
of the Redline 5.4ghz product? And the receive sensitivity levels?

I guess that's my question... I have a competitor that is shooting 30 
miles with a Redline 2ft panel pair running 5.4ghz. Even using only 
10mhz of spectrum, that's only a -83 signal. Just wondering if he's 
turned up the power somehow to make that shot.

Re: [WISPA] Feds OK fee for priority Web traffic

Ok  so I pay you the extra to guarantee  a certain minimum latency.  I 
if I am connecting to a server on another network how will you provide

Because I have negotiated QoS with my upstream, and they have negotiated 
it with their peers.


Alternatively, If I'm a large enough ISP, someone like Vonage may 
purchase a line directly into my network and pay me to deliver 2 way 
traffic at a higher priority to their customers.
