Video isn't too big of a concern, still images are just fine.  Either way
I'm happy - but I do not want to spend thousands for a camera that is simply
for show.

I need to be able to get this thing 200' in the air without locking

Re: [WISPA] Network tower cam

2009-01-22 Thread Tom DeReggi
The inscape cameras are really nice, and worth every penny if someone needs 
a full featured camera.

There are MANY low cost cameras. For example Intellinet (icintracom) has 
some inexpenseive ones also.
But the inexpensive ones all share a common feature flaw Do they support 
MPEG4? Most of the inexpensive ones do not.
That is the difference between a 300kbps requirement for full motion stream, 
and a 1.5mbps requirement for full motion stream.

If bandwidth use is not an issue, then it doesn't matter. For example, if 
you only need to capturing a frame (mjpeg) every two seconds, its not an 
issue.

I have a source for white outdoor cable. I had a Manufacturer/Distributor
make some special cable. 1000' is about the same price as General Cable 500'
purchased from Home Depot. Hit me offlist for the contact info. I believe
Travis buys for the same source.

[WISPA] Network tower cam

We are interested in putting a camera up on a tower to get some "we're 700
1337 4 u" feel.  I do want a PoE/Ethernet one - no coax/analog cameras!

Does anyone have suggestions?

Re: [WISPA] UBNT Bullet5 review...

2009-01-22 Thread Travis Johnson




Matt,

Yes, we are offering symmetrical speeds (1meg x 1meg, etc.), so our
testing was based on that. So I would agree if you were not doing that,
you can probably get 75 users (at a very maximum) on an 802.11 AP.
However, I still believe there are other issues with plain 802.11 that
does not have any type of polling... such as having a customer with a
-50 signal while everyone else has a -75 signal. Regardless of QoS or
any other setting, that -50 customer is going to get priority over
anyone else on that AP. I would be curious what happens on an AP if
that one customer were to start a very high pps upload using all of
their allocated bandwidth?

All of our tests used the AP as the bandwidth controller. There were
still substantial issues when a customer started an upload.

Here's where the numbers get interesting a StarOS AP is $300, but I
can do a Canopy AP for $600 (and I can put the same antenna on it that
you are putting on the StarOS system, and we can both be in violation
of the FCC guidelines)... but I can put up to 200 customers with no
impact on latency. So even if we figure 100 customers on the Canopy AP,
it's the same cost as the StarOS AP. And for us, the bigger issue was
being able to co-locate many AP's on the same tower. With Canopy, I
could technically put 24 AP's on the same tower (even right on top of
each other) and everything would still work. ;)

As for management, we wrote two PHP scripts (total time of about 2-3
hours) that provide full management of all our Canopy AP's and SM's. We
use JFFNMS to gather all the stats automatically (we don't have to add
each SM, we only add the AP one time and it grabs everything about
every SM connected including packets, traffic, signal, jitter, etc).
All of this is open source, and I will probably post the scripts
sometime in the near future. So now anyone with proper access can do
any support or maintenance necessary all from a web browser... no PuTTy
or whatever that crazy stuff is that StarOS requires... ;)

I have a source for white outdoor cable. I had a Manufacturer/Distributor
make some special cable. 1000' is about the same price as General Cable 500'
purchased from Home Depot. Hit me offlist for the contact info. I believe
Travis buys for the same source.

[WISPA] Ubnt SR-71A throughput

2009-01-22 Thread Fernando Benaiter - Micromatix
Fellows, does anyone already using Ubiquiti's SR-71A cards? We are 
proceding some indoor speed tests with 2 LiteStations SR-71 with
SR-71A cards. The units are conected in Access Point WDS mode, each one 
using 2 antennas, in 11Na - 40 MHz channel mode.
However, throughput doesnt pass 22 Mb/s...

Regards.

Re: [WISPA] UPS options (WAS: We're being DDOS'd by DC!)

2009-01-22 Thread Patrick Shoemaker
This type of AGM battery is the way to go if you're stringing batteries 
off a UPS. They are sealed so you don't need to worry about hydrogen 
venting, explosions, permits if it's being installed in a building, etc. 
Plus the standard chargers in APC UPSes are designed for use with AGM 
batteries, not flooded cell lead acid like you find at Wal-Mart.

One thing to keep in mind when buying AGM batteries: find the actual 
datasheet for the battery and find out at what discharge rate the 
battery capacity is specified. Some of the cheap chinese batteries are 
rated at a slower discharge rate, which artificially inflates their 
capacity when compared to batteries rated at the standard 20 hour 
discharge rate. Also when doing runtime calcs you need to look up the 
capacity for the discharge rate you will be using in order to get an 
accurate number.

Last time I looked there where no commonly used devices for laptop that do 
polling. For internal "public" network to serve pda's, laptops etc your only 
option is WiFi and it is do able to support a lot of those users just have to 
design it right. Each unit has it purpose and place canopy et al right now do 
not have a position in the laptop market. Would be funny to see a conference 
where people walk around with canopy units attached to their laptops for 
internet access and searching for power outlets to power them. Lol.

Matt,

This was Animal Farm... they had a 300Mbps link off their fiber backbone
into this facility. Why would you cap people at 1Mbps? The issue is
without polling, there is no way to control usage in a fair, equal
manner.

Let me explain what I have found in the last year. We did all kinds of
testing with Mikrotik, Nanostations, OSBridge, StarOS, etc. We decided
to deploy Mikrotik and use their Nstreme protocol to provide a
consistant, polling based solution using off-the-shelf components. We
have about 60 AP's deployed. We have found that even with polling and
QoS on every single user, the system starts to have issues above 50
users. So we figured no problem, just put up more AP's on the same
towers. Even while using only 10mhz channel sizes, you have to have at
least 20mhz between AP's or they cause interference. So, we now have
some towers with 6 Mikrotik AP's, but instead of using 60mhz of
spectrum, we are using more like 180mhz of spectrum.

Only having been in the Canopy game for less than a month, I can tell
you so far having GPS sync and timing is pretty cool. I can put as many
AP's as I want on a tower, and all over everywhere, and I don't have to
worry about stepping on myself. So each AP uses 25mhz, but I can get
200+ subs on each AP, and I can deliver 7-10ms latency all the time, to
every single user.

And, with the last promo that Motorola did, I purchased 24 APs' for less
than $600 each. :)

Travis,
 
Ok, I'm game.
 
First of all, a plain 802.11g wireless AP should be thrown in the junk 
pile and replaced with StarOS or MT.Depending on the quality of 
signal and modulation rates from the majority of the users, I would have

also removed some of the higher mods to reduce rate shifts.   And then, 
I would have set up bandwidth profiles for each user to something in the

1meg down/512K up range.   That would pretty much fix the bandwidth and 
latency problem.
 
When I do your upload test, I don't have the same problems.  I do 
bandwidth control in the access point, and with upload rates set to half

of the download rates, I have no problem putting 50 to 75 users on one 
AP and still provide good download speeds (1meg/2meg/4meg packages) with

decent latency (20-40ms latency at peaks) and no packet loss.   That is 
also with quite a few VOIP users who would be howling if the service 
didn't work.
 
BTW, Canopy radios at $160 are double the cost of a NanoStation.   
Canopy with a reflector is 3x the cost of a Bullet5 and 26db grid.   
StarOS APs are at least 1/4th the cost of a comparable Canopy AP.

users on their 802.11 based networks scaling right up to the same size 
as any Canopy or Trango network.You might not be able to get to 150 
subs per AP, but you can certainly hit 50-75 per sector and offer 
service that is damn close and a far sight cheaper than what Canopy will

do.  I would take a StarOS a/b/g network over a Canopy system every day 
of the week.
 
As far as problems at AF09 - that is what you get when Canopy guys are 
running an 802.11 network.   If I was running it with the proven 
equipment and deployment methods that many of us use on 802.11 networks,

there would not have been any such problems.Just because the AF09

If you're using nstreme for point to multipoint OR wds be sure you're
running a very very recent version of ROS!

Nstreme used to not work well at all on APs with 10-20+ customers.  I
believe the new wireless package is included as of 3.16.

Matt,

This was Animal Farm... they had a 300Mbps link off their fiber
backbone into this facility. Why would you cap people at 1Mbps? The
issue is without polling, there is no way to control usage in a fair,
equal manner.

Let me explain what I have found in the last year. We did all kinds of
testing with Mikrotik, Nanostations, OSBridge, StarOS, etc. We decided
to deploy Mikrotik and use their Nstreme protocol to provide a
consistant, polling based solution using off-the-shelf components. We
have about 60 AP's deployed. We have found that even with polling and
QoS on every single user, the system starts to have issues above 50
users. So we figured no problem, just put up more AP's on the same
towers. Even while using only 10mhz channel sizes, you have to have at
least 20mhz between AP's or they cause interference. So, we now have
some towers with 6 Mikrotik AP's, but instead of using 60mhz of
spectrum, we are using more like 180mhz of spectrum.

Only having been in the Canopy game for less than a month, I can tell
you so far having GPS sync and timing is pretty cool. I can put as many
AP's as I want on a tower, and all over everywhere, and I don't have to
worry about stepping on myself. So each AP uses 25mhz, but I can get
200+ subs on each AP, and I can deliver 7-10ms latency all the time, to
every single user.

And, with the last promo that Motorola did, I purchased 24 APs' for
less than $600 each. :)

  Travis,

Ok, I'm game.

First of all, a plain 802.11g wireless AP should be thrown in the junk 
pile and replaced with StarOS or MT.Depending on the quality of 
signal and modulation rates from the majority of the users, I would have 
also removed some of the higher mods to reduce rate shifts.   And then, 
I would have set up bandwidth profiles for each user to something in the 
1meg down/512K up range.   That would pretty much fix the bandwidth and 
latency problem.

When I do your upload test, I don't have the same problems.  I do 
bandwidth control in the access point, and with upload rates set to half 
of the download rates, I have no problem putting 50 to 75 users on one 
AP and still provide good download speeds (1meg/2meg/4meg packages) with 
decent latency (20-40ms latency at peaks) and no packet loss.   That is 
also with quite a few VOIP users who would be howling if the service 
didn't work.

BTW, Canopy radios at $160 are double the cost of a NanoStation.   
Canopy with a reflector is 3x the cost of a Bullet5 and 26db grid.   
StarOS APs are at least 1/4th the cost of a comparable Canopy AP.

And, once again, I have done test after test after test using 802.11

StarOS, using OSBridge and using Nanostations) if we setup an AP and

upload to 2Mbps or 3Mbps, when that client starts the upload, the 
other client has very high latency, very bad download speeds, etc.

As for price on Canopy vs. 802.11... things are not always as they 
seem. I know of a large Canopy operator that is buying radios for $160 
each. ;)

And, we have Trango AP's that only deliver 5Mbps total with 128 
clients and we deliver 4ms latency to every single client.

Uh oh...we've started a holy war...



Here's my philosophy these days...*NOTHING* works perfectly, but *ANYTHING* can 
be made to work -> if there's will (and a little bit of ingenuity and duct 
tape), there's a way =)

That being said, there's a case to be made, especially when we're talking scale 
here, when the "wizard of oz" can no longer run everything, but crews of "dumb 
minions" have taken over, that a case for paying a premium on hardware can be 
made due to the labor cost savings for stuff that just works "out of the box" 
vs. stuff that requires "some tweaks" and "tribal knowledge" to make work 
properly

Heck, we paid a premium and converted our infrastructure to Windows and Cisco 
b/c the benefit of hiring someone who had certs and could be productive in 2 
weeks of hiring was worth the extra premium than trying to wait & train a new 
guy for 6-9 months...

My 2 cents

On another topic, I've been looking at Cat-5 cable for CPE installs, and am 
trying to figure out what color everyone likes best

Talking about the cheap, outdoor rated unshielded Cat-5e

Me personally, I would have thought black, but I'm finding many seem to prefer 
white/beige b/c it blends in better with vinyl siding

Thoughts?

2009-01-22 Thread Chuck Hogg
No, I don't have a target for Motorola Canopy, we sell it, and it
represents less than 3% of our total sales volume.  Having those stock
levels of various items and sales volumes is rather easy though, and we
have maintained them after our first year with steady growth.  We're
mostly MikroTik/UBNT/Vecima/ARC/PAC/Teletronics, but we do sell quite a
few other products.  We just focus on our core products which we are
already direct on.

My point was that there are many wisps out there claiming a certain
price, but really never reach those volumes or ascertain those pricing
levels.  I know of a WISP in Texas who had a tech claiming $160 per CPE
pricing, then when I approached their purchasing department for
ancillary products, they were paying 1% over my cost, through a deal
with Motorola, far from $160 per CPE.  They currently have about 40k
subscribers and add between 600-1k per month.

I've been in this league almost two years...and yet I haven't been in
this market as long as you, I do know and understand the game.  Having
been to multiple distributors like the ones you mentioned, our inventory
levels are close to similar in comparison.

Chuck,

Just a word of friendly advice

The Canopy / WISP resale world is a competitive and brutal space -- if
your plan is to target WISPs, I'd recommend that you save the trouble
and find another vertical market or product

The "reseller" cost that you see isn't that far off of what "street
WISP" pricing is for anyone who's deploying in any decent quantity --
that's just the nature of the business

You need a minimum of $5 million / year in volume and probably close to
$500k in stock to "get in the WISP game" -- but at this point in the
game, you're in a chicken & egg situation, since I'm not quite sure how
you'd build up that volume, given that

(1) most WISPs already have pre-existing relationships with their
current suppliers, and inertia is an extremely hard thing to break

(2) any new WISP you spend the time to get going that results in any
decent volume will probably get swiped by the "bigger guys" because it
ultimately all boils down to price and financing -- and they have the
volume and pricing advantage to take you out of the market

There's a reason why Streakwave went back to focus on Mikrotik /
Ubiquiti 2 years ago

Irregardless, whether or not you choose to listen to my advice, Welcome
to the big leagues =)

The cheapest I have ever seen large bulk distributor pricing with
buyback money is a little over $200 per SM except 900Mhz.  Now, if you
are looking at the Lite version SM's they certainly can be had for
cheaper.  All these WISPs claiming cheaper price is not telling the
truth.  Even Motorola disputes the price when questioned (yes I am a
distributor of Motorola products too).  Ask that WISP to buy 100 packs
from them for me, I'll pay a 10% premium!



Also, I agree with both of you here.  Having both 900MHz Trango and

Chuck,

Just a word of friendly advice

The Canopy / WISP resale world is a competitive and brutal space -- if
your plan is to target WISPs, I'd recommend that you save the trouble
and find another vertical market or product

The "reseller" cost that you see isn't that far off of what "street
WISP" pricing is for anyone who's deploying in any decent quantity --
that's just the nature of the business

You need a minimum of $5 million / year in volume and probably close to
$500k in stock to "get in the WISP game" -- but at this point in the
game, you're in a chicken & egg situation, since I'm not quite sure how
you'd build up that volume, given that

(1) most WISPs already have pre-existing relationships with their
current suppliers, and inertia is an extremely hard thing to break

(2) any new WISP you spend the time to get going that results in any
decent volume will probably get swiped by the "bigger guys" because it
ultimately all boils down to price and financing -- and they have the
volume and pricing advantage to take you out of the market

There's a reason why Streakwave went back to focus on Mikrotik /
Ubiquiti 2 years ago

Irregardless, whether or not you choose to listen to my advice, Welcome

2009-01-22 Thread Matt Larsen - Lists
Travis,

Ok, I'm game.

First of all, a plain 802.11g wireless AP should be thrown in the junk 
pile and replaced with StarOS or MT.Depending on the quality of 
signal and modulation rates from the majority of the users, I would have 
also removed some of the higher mods to reduce rate shifts.   And then, 
I would have set up bandwidth profiles for each user to something in the 
1meg down/512K up range.   That would pretty much fix the bandwidth and 
latency problem.

When I do your upload test, I don't have the same problems.  I do 
bandwidth control in the access point, and with upload rates set to half 
of the download rates, I have no problem putting 50 to 75 users on one 
AP and still provide good download speeds (1meg/2meg/4meg packages) with 
decent latency (20-40ms latency at peaks) and no packet loss.   That is 
also with quite a few VOIP users who would be howling if the service 
didn't work.

BTW, Canopy radios at $160 are double the cost of a NanoStation.   
Canopy with a reflector is 3x the cost of a Bullet5 and 26db grid.   
StarOS APs are at least 1/4th the cost of a comparable Canopy AP.

Chuck,

Just a word of friendly advice

The Canopy / WISP resale world is a competitive and brutal space -- if your 
plan is to target WISPs, I'd recommend that you save the trouble and find 
another vertical market or product

The "reseller" cost that you see isn't that far off of what "street WISP" 
pricing is for anyone who's deploying in any decent quantity -- that's just the 
nature of the business

You need a minimum of $5 million / year in volume and probably close to $500k 
in stock to "get in the WISP game" -- but at this point in the game, you're in 
a chicken & egg situation, since I'm not quite sure how you'd build up that 
volume, given that

(1) most WISPs already have pre-existing relationships with their current 
suppliers, and inertia is an extremely hard thing to break

(2) any new WISP you spend the time to get going that results in any decent 
volume will probably get swiped by the "bigger guys" because it ultimately all 
boils down to price and financing -- and they have the volume and pricing 
advantage to take you out of the market

There's a reason why Streakwave went back to focus on Mikrotik / Ubiquiti 2

maintained 802.11 networks do pretty well also, but I don't see them
outperforming what Trango does on clients per AP level.

Matt,

I know we have already discussed this several times, and I'm not sure we
need to do it again... but maybe you could explain how you could have
setup a plain 802.11g wireless AP so that each client (using all
different kinds of wireless adapters) could have gotten equal bandwidth
and latency at AF09?

And, once again, I have done test after test after test using 802.11
stuff... and every single time (using Mikrotik without Nstreme, using
StarOS, using OSBridge and using Nanostations) if we setup an AP and we
connect two clients with laptops and start a continuous upload, the
other client is basically dead in the water. Even if we limit the upload
to 2Mbps or 3Mbps, when that client starts the upload, the other client
has very high latency, very bad download speeds, etc.

As for price on Canopy vs. 802.11... things are not always as they seem.
I know of a large Canopy operator that is buying radios for $160 each.
;)

And, we have Trango AP's that only deliver 5Mbps total with 128 clients
and we deliver 4ms latency to every single client.

Sorry Travis, but you are dead wrong about 802.11 not being able to
scale beyond 20 users, especially with 802.11a.   I explained how it can

be done to you before and I have consulting clients with 10,000 plus
users on their 802.11 based networks scaling right up to the same size
as any Canopy or Trango network.You might not be able to get to 150
subs per AP, but you can certainly hit 50-75 per sector and offer
service that is damn close and a far sight cheaper than what Canopy will

do.  I would take a StarOS a/b/g network over a Canopy system every day
of the week.

As far as problems at AF09 - that is what you get when Canopy guys are
running an 802.11 network.   If I was running it with the proven
equipment and deployment methods that many of us use on 802.11 networks,

there would not have been any such problems.Just because the AF09
guys couldn't figure it out (or more likely didn't bother to try)
doesn't mean that it can't be done right.

The problem will be that they are still plain 802.11 technology.
