Re: [WISPA] AC relay to reboot DC (PoE devices) suggestion?

2008-05-27 Thread Jon Langeler
You have a cost effective recommendation? I guess we already had all 
these AC rebooters deployed and I'd rather not have to replace them all 
and SPEND MORE MONEY if you know what I mean.

[WISPA] New WISPA Vendor Member - Link Technologies

2008-05-27 Thread John Scrivner
Please welcome our newest WISPA Vendor Member, Link Technologies. We
appreciate their support of WISPA. Below is an introduction to Link
Technologies.

Link Technologies, Inc. was formed in 2007 in order to provide network
consulting, support, configuration, and training to the WISP community
as well as enterprise clients. We also offer the PoweRouter line of
high performance industrial strength routers based on Mikrotik
RouterOS.

Our engineers have certifications and experience in a wide range of
systems and platforms including Mikrotik, Linux, Microsoft, Unix,
Cisco, servers, RF, and many types of other gear. All of us either
currently operate a WISP or have in the past so are well versed in the
day to day operation of large wireless and wired networks.

We provide NSAs (Network Service Agreements) that allow for discounts
on a yearly commitment for a set amount of hours per month. These
clients also enjoy emergency support on nights and weekends.

The online webinar training sessions are based on Mikrotik
Certification Curriculum. These are weekly 2-3 hour interactive
lecture based classes. The full Mikrotik training is spread over a 4-5
month period in order to give techs time to digest and absorb the
material. There will be additional guest speakers in from time to time
to offer training in other topics that focus on the needs of WISPs.
Due to a high number of requests for Mikrotik Certification testing
Link Tech's will offer free Mikrotik certification tests for users
with 6 months of continuous webinar attendance.

If you have any questions or would like more info give us a call or
visit the website.

Thank You,

Link Technologies, Inc

Re: [WISPA] AC relay to reboot DC (PoE devices) suggestion?

2008-05-27 Thread Blair Davis
I don't know where you could buy one, but this is simple and cheap to 
build...

A power cord, a relay and some kind of connector for the dc side

under $10 in parts and a few min to put together.

I use a Webswitch from http://www.controlbyweb.com/webswitch/index.html

You can do the remote reboot but the best part is the auto-ping feature
which after a set amount of failed pings you can have it reboot something. I
can not tell you how many truck rolls this thing has saved me from and it is
the best thing I have found.

Re: [WISPA] WLM54G - Unexpected Results

2008-05-27 Thread reader
I have only t ried one or two of the 2.4 only cards, but they worked just 
fine.

I have, however, used a ton of the AG p23 cards and aside from the rare one 
going deaf,  I've not seen that.

Biggest reason for them to fail to associate in star-os for me, is that I 
failed to set the distance... :(

Would these by any chance NOT be "super" cards?There's some around that 
are not.   They may not work if you specify "super ag" in the config.

Has anyone else had a problem with the WLM54-G?  I've had alot of them lately 
just give me wierd unexpected results.

I'm using StarOS...  

With a WLM54-G (100mW card), I get no association (we're using 802.11b mode)

Pop in a WLM54-GP23 (200mW card), I get -70 receive at the tower.  Same with 
WLM54-SAGP23
