Re: [WISPA] Nanostation dish
Just got a couple of these and did some preliminary testing. What kind of DB boost are you seeing with these? It did help, but I was hoping for more of a boost with the Nanostation2, didn't try the loco (because of the ack limit to 3 miles). I would have to say it was worth about 7-8 db at 2.4. I was hoping for 12-13 db, so that I could ditch my Powerstations and Grids. Regards Michael Baird Try this http://www.securalign.com , the Max Dish, @$42.00 each, in a 2 pack. We use them with the 5.x Nano for the mid range applications, 3-6miles, after that we move to other options. Just put the bottom bracket of the Nano against the mounting band of the Max dish. Very large sweet spot for horizontal and vertical. Works with the 2.4 too.

Re: [WISPA] Fw: [TowerTalk] Tower Vandalism
Depending on the circumstances, I might have to shoot them... The use of deadly force introduces the element of preventing a crime against the person or property or preventing someone from fleeing after committing specific crimes. The statutes distinguish some crimes being committed at night. The following list contains a brief statutory definition of the crimes taken from the TPC when deadly force may be used to prevent their imminent commission: · Arson-starting a fire or caus- ing an explosion with the intent to destroy or damage vegetation, fence, structure, open-space land, building, habitat or vehicle. Exceptions and defenses are enumerated in Section 28.02. · Burglary-entering a habitation or building not open to the public or remaining concealed in a habitation or building with the intent to commit or at- tempt to commit a felony or theft. Section 30.02 elaborates on the exceptions and quali- fication of burglary. A habita- tion is a structure or vehicle adapted for overnight accom- modations (Section 30.01). A building is any enclosed struc- ture intended for use or occu- pation as a habitation or for trade, manufacture, ornament or use. A felony is any offense so designated by law or pun- ishable by death or confine- ment in the penitentiary (Sec- tion 1.07[23]). · Robbery-knowingly, intention- ally or recklessly causing bodily injury or knowingly or inten- tionally threatening or placing another in fear of imminent bodily injury while committing a theft (Section 29.02). · Aggravated robbery-causing serious bodily injury or using or exhibiting a deadly weapon while committing a robbery. Special rules apply to robbery of a disabled person or some- one 65 years or older (Section 29.03). · Theft-appropriating unlawfully the property of another with the intent to deprive the owner of the property. The appropria- tion is unlawful when the owner has not consented or when the property is known to have been stolen. Section 31.03 contains several pages describ- ing and defining theft. Consent is defined in Section 1.07(11) as assent in fact, whether express or apparent. · Criminal mischief-knowingly or intentionally damaging or destroying, tampering with or marking, inscribing slogans, drawing or painting on tangible property of another (Section 28.03). The list of crimes when deadly force may by used to prevent the culprit from fleeing with the prop- erty immediately after the commis- sion is quite similar to the one just given. The only difference is that arson and criminal mischief are dropped. The third and final qualification for the use of deadly force is the property owner's reasonable belief that the land or personalty can not be protected by any other means. Or, the property owner reasonably believes that if deadly force is not used, the property owner or some- one else will be exposed to a substantial risk of death or serious injury.

Almost no one dies in a school bus (compared to auto accidents) in the first place. And seat belts wouldn't have much of any effect on the already exceedingly low death rates in a school bus. THAT'S why we don't spend money on it- it doesn't really make any difference. Yes, I know one could say ah, but if you saved 1 life a year, you're making an economic argument that it isn't worth $500,000,000 to retrofit all busses to have seat belts. It's true, but kind of misleading because, if it would make much of a difference, we'd do it. Meanwhile, many many parents drive their kids to school despite the fact that the death rate due to driving kids to school is like 100 times higher. In both cases though, the rates are so low, it isn't really any issue.

Re: [WISPA] Ever see Ethernet cables fail so that ...
I have had the ethernet cable go bad just like that twice over the past year. Both times was after a nearby lightning strike. The strange things was that it passed with my tester. OK, my tester is only a $100, not one of the fancy expensive units. Still, after the cable was replaced, all was/is well. -RickG On Sat, Sep 5, 2009 at 3:46 PM, rabbtux rabbtuxrabb...@gmail.com wrote: All, I have a sub that has had Several failures.

Re: [WISPA] Ever see Ethernet cables fail so that ...
I call lightning damage and suggest suppression devices on both ends of the cable at this location. Sites that have continuous problems help identify when something isn't right ground-wise with the install. Every time lightning comes close the problem will repeat itself most likely. Your installation might be the same but maybe they added a ground rod somewhere that is affecting your install, maybe they lost some grounding - maybe similar at another close building etc.. Can't really tell you can just start to make changes until you have no more problems. That's my guess. Seen the same thing here at a couple of sites.

Re: [WISPA] Ubiquiti CPEs - SuperAG
10mhz channel, 24mbit air rate, 9.6mbit UDP, 9.3 TCP from MT to MT via MT-BS5-BS5-MT. This is a 15 mile link. It should move more data but I am CPU limited at the far end with a RB133C. UBNT AP-CPE test says 15mbit. Looks like the BS5's are not enabling compression. Mark Nash wrote: Can you verify on your AP that those features are actually functioning?

Is this accurate? Any success stories using the WRT firmware on these products? It seems that the hardware is capable, just hasn't been enabled in the firmware unless you purchase the higher end, more expensive products. This seems to be the ONLY thing keeping me from using these products in a big way as opposed to what I use now, StarOS.

Re: [WISPA] Ever see Ethernet cables fail so that ...
Last time was lightning, this time all has been well since lightning in this area is infrequent. So this is the cable wind? On Sat, Sep 5, 2009 at 4:47 PM, Scott Carullo sc...@brevardwireless.comwrote: I call lightning damage and suggest suppression devices on both ends of the cable at this location. Sites that have continuous problems help identify when something isn't right ground-wise with the install. Every time lightning comes close the problem will repeat itself most likely. Your installation might be the same but maybe they added a ground rod somewhere that is affecting your install, maybe they lost some grounding - maybe similar at another close building etc.. Can't really tell you can just start to make changes until you have no more problems. That's my guess. Seen the same thing here at a couple of sites.

Could also be the connectors. IDC (Insulation Displacement Connects) can work loose and/or corrode, especially when subjected to unnatural stress such as lightning. rabbtux rabbtux wrote: All, I have a sub that has had Several failures. The last one is understandable, in that there was a direct lightning strike in their yard winthin 75' of CPE (NS5). Its Ethernet port was bad, yet the radio was fine?? The one before that, the power company worked on the power and said their oops may have caused problems. It did even though my equipment was plugged into a UPS. They now have a brand new quality surge protector for the equipment. Anyway, the customer calls and says no internet, and that the POE box light is not on. Fine, I instruct customer to remove compatible power from the router we installed and plug into the injector. She does, and I see pings from the AP. I go on site to replace power supply later that day. I find No ethernet connectivity thru the injector to the NS5. I also find the workstation plugged into router has no ethernet connectivity to the router. I plug my laptop into router and verify that all link lites seem to work on all ports, yet the usb-ethernet adapter I installed 2 weeks ago is not seen by the workstation. yes I tried several usb ports. A couple weeks ago, I verified that our outdoor cable was good. Now as I look for answers, the only suspect is the ethernet cable. It has been in service 4-5 years, and I noticed a few staples had pulled out and left a 3 foot loop between the carport and house dangling. My theory is that this cable has an intermittent short that has fried the power supply, the ethernet port on the NS5, and the workstation ethernet port plugged into the router?? QUESTION: Have you guys seen stuff like this happen? Because this is a Bus. sub I will head out there shortly to 'finish up'. I will rip out and replace our cable, the NS5 , and probably the usb-ethernet port we put in. Sure would be nice to know I've hit the right things. your feedback is greatly appreciated!
