SOAP might provide a nice solution, but I can think of three potential problems with using SOAP: 1) It would require me to learn a new language... I know VERY little about SOAP and almost as little about XML (unfortunately learning new languages isn't in my schedule for the next month or so). 2) Using SOAP presumes that the ISP has a server which is running or is capable of installing a SOAP engine. 3) Using SOAP would require that I develop a platform independent backend server process to handle the inbound and outbound SOAP messages. I'd be interested to hear how many ISPs currently use SOAP and of those that don't how many would be willing/wanting to install a SOAP engine for purposes of server side message processing. - Larry -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ryan Langseth Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2008 7:38 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] FW: [WISP] Internet Monitor - new release posted How about a SOAP interface rather than email?

Re: [WISPA] 2012 - The End of the Internet
The Internet is more than just the US. Oversees, the RBOCs are just another network with good US capacity. Flag, PCCW, NTT, DT, FT, Telia, etc. are no more tied to ATT than to Level(3). The MSO's purchase a lot of capacity from the non-RBOC networks. IMHO, the RBOCs will only be able to exert this type of control over their own customers. There will always be alternatives. -- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com - Original Message - From: Tom DeReggi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Friday, June 20, 2008 6:10 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] 2012 - The End of the Internet The RBOCs really don't have any superior standing or abilities if you can get to alternate upstream providers. I think we can get confused on Consumers versus ISPs. ISPs can get to XOs and LEvel3s. But ISPs can't get to consumers. Consumers can't get to XOs and Level3s. Daily, more incentives are given to allow the big players to have more market share. The problem occurs once they get majority market share. What makes you think the content battle won't occur between RBOCs/CABLE COs and the level3 / XOs getting blocked. The XOs and LEvel3s might not be large enough either. As soon as the monopolies have all teh consumers, and block third party content on on third party networks, the capacity on third party networks will become worthless. And then content providers will start going to the monoplies also. Its not going to happen overnight. However, the whole point on the protesting is that we are not going to let it happen. We want to make sure people support third party ISPs and fight legislation that does not protect third party ISPs, so that this whole topic will be a mute point. We don't want to be the frog.

[WISPA] testing mesh for cameras and VoIP
I'm looking for ways to test out a mesh for two things -- (a) camera streams, and (b) VoIP quality. Thus far, I'm using iperf. For (a), I'm hoping something like this on my laptop (to another laptop) will do: iperf -c (other laptop IP) -P (number of cameras) -b (Mbps of camera stream on that link) For (b), I don't think that iperf can measure jitter of TCP, only UDP with the -u option.

Mark -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Larry Yunker Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2008 4:03 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: [WISPA] FW: [WISP] Internet Monitor - new release posted Just a quick note: I posted a new release of the Internet Monitor software today. (v. 1.0.0.17) It's available at http://www.wispadvantage.com/html/custom_software.html I addressed a few bugs and improved the stability of the speed test features in this release. I also made significant changes to the email-report mechanism. It now generates a nice XML file when sending the test results back to the ISP. I'm getting close to having an automated method for checking-for and downloading-updates, but without more testing, I'm not ready to deploy that code quite yet. Hopefully I'll have it within the next week. Regards, Larry Yunker Network Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] CPE recommendations?
Yes, they are great up sale($200-250.00, near carrier grade). And they will use reflections and multipath. They penetrate better because of the directed output receive, excellent for large difficult homes or metal buildings. If you use the other CPE unit as a range extender, you can only repeat once (after a day or two the additional units lose it) but excellent for a single wireless bridge, wired or wireless.

I have several apartment complexes with very spotty coverage, and I was wondering what type of CPE that people would recommend. I've been looking at the Ruckus units, particularly the MetroxFlex http://www.ruckuswireless.com/products/metroflex/ Anyone else have any experience with these devices? I'm looking for something to limp everyone along until everyone is willing to make a significant CAPEX expenditure on a better wireless infrastructure. WISPA Wants You!

[WISPA] Bugs Install Issues - Internet Monitor
So that we don't clog up the list with bug reports and installation issues, I'm going to request that everyone send email me [offlist] if they need support in setting up the Internet Monitor software or if they have found any bugs in the software. I DO appreciate the interest in the software package and I'll be glad to work with as many of you as time allows. I really am anxious to work through these initial bugs and get a stable product out to the ISP community ASAP. I'll add a link to the distribution web site listing all known issues and bugs regarding the software so that people can track how and when issues have been resolved. BTW, I still encourage on-list discussion regarding future features that you would like to see added to the software. I'm not trying to stifle useful discussion here, I'm just suggesting that support requests and bug reports go offlist to a more appropriate forum.

Thanks, Chuck. I'm reading up on their documentation now http://support.ruckuswireless.com/documents/for_product/mm2211 http://support.ruckuswireless.com/documents/for_product/mm22xx-ng They look insanely easy to setup. (What do you mean by after ad ay or two the additional units lose it, you mean they crash and need a reset?) WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] testing mesh for cameras and VoIP
Rogelio wrote: I'm looking for ways to test out a mesh for two things -- (a) camera streams, and (b) VoIP quality. Thus far, I'm using iperf. For (a), I'm hoping something like this on my laptop (to another laptop) will do: iperf -c (other laptop IP) -P (number of cameras) -b (Mbps of camera stream on that link) For (b), I don't think that iperf can measure jitter of TCP, only UDP with the -u option. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do for that? Shortly after I sent this, I realized that VoIP (e.g. SIP) is UDP. :/ For what it's worth, there are lots more great performance testing tool at the following URL http://www.caida.org/tools/taxonomy/performance.xml (Still clicking through some of them) WISPA Wants You!
