Still not quite right. Even with a low setting it burst way too much. I'm
just setting burst to "0" until it gets figured out. -RickG

Hey!  Only $6.99 at Amazon!

That little item looks to be a very useful thing.

Talk about hand warmers. I saw at the dollar tree they had hand warmers
(reusable). I had those reusable before ad they are GREAT. There is a small
metal "button" inside you "pop" and it starts to get warm. After a while
they start to cool down ad start to get hard. To make it usable again just
boil it and it gets soft again and once it gets cool it's ready to use just
pop the button again. 

You could find them before in wild life stores but they seemed to be
numerous dollars there but been a while since I looked for them so might be
lot cheaper today..

Primarily middle-mile/2nd mile facilities. It will help us keep up with 
bandwidth demand 
to the last mile like we all supplied comment for a few weeks ago with the 
WISPA survey 
in support of additional spectrum. It's not a replacement for spectrum, as it 
doesn't go 
everywhere.

It will partially enable ISPs to build spurs off the ring to do small FTTH 
projects that 
are not doable now due to no middle mile. It will also let us (and other ISPs) 
offer 
higher end services to big business customers that can afford it.

Join the fiber rush instead of fight it. It's not that hard technically and it 
is very 
future proof and low maintenance. It's just more money up front per customer. 
We do 
wireless, DSL, dialup, and now some fiber, and consider ourselves technology 
agnostic. We 
like wireless alot and are well known for that, but we're also pragmatic. We 
expect to 
continue to grow in mostly wireless and fiber. We may even grow in DSL if we 
can get our 
wholesale DSL provider into more COs as a result of the middle mile project.

You can also use fiber to bring bandwidth to your towers when you outgrow your 
backhauls. 
As data uses increase, you have to weight the cost of dark fiber versus 
expensive 
backhaul upgrades every couple of years. The fiber access could also make the 
wireless 
sites more attractive to lucrative cell carrier leasees.

Yeah, they have to.  It's the only economical way to provide last mile in
the sticks in a hurry.  My issue isn't with that though, it's the energy
wasted on self promotion.  I don't have the answer on what they should do
and I don't know if they should do anything at all.  As I said before, those
who "have" can easily afford broadband now, I'm more interested in helping
provide to those who "have not".  And still make a buck or two of course,
I'm not THAT dumb!

Man, I'm really glad that logic and common sense prevailed.  So the system
worked out.  Hopefully the rest will make just as much sense.  It will take
only one idiotic grant to make the rest of the program look like the bank

The grants were reviewed and scored by independent volunteers (I was one),
who scored each of them using a fairly complex rubric. It covered things
like "does this meet one of the government's broadband deployment and
economic stimulus goals," of course, but there also were a lot of points for
things like "is this budget realistic" and "will this technology actually do
what the applicant says it will." Obviously, the volunteers' scores weren't
the only factor considered by NTIA, but I'm proud to have been a bit of a
nonsense-filter. Obviously I can't talk about any of the specific
applications I reviewed, but the five applications, totaling over 1000
pages, had a couple doozies in there. Some folks were interested in trying
to build out broadband, others were pretty clearly just making a cash grab.
I'm hoping I was able to do a little bit to help the former and quell the
latter.

Re: [WISPA] Connected Nation

2009-12-17 Thread Robert West
Not me, I'm a realist for the most part.  I read their mission as to help
provide broadband in whatever manner it takes to do it.  In our area, as
someone mentioned, there is the fiber ring being built by Horizon Telecom
out of Chillicothe.  Very good!  We want that.  I'm for whatever it takes to
build middle mile into the rural areas but you will get a faster and more
bang for your buck out in BFE using wireless for last mile and CN knows that
and they will say so.  And to go further, if a Telco receives a big grant to
install DSL out in no man's land with 1 house for every 4 square miles, I'll
applaud that as well, believe it or not.  My goal isn't to get all I can for
me, I got into this to "help" provide access where there isn't any.  

But that kind of is my point when I jumped into this.  CN or Connect Ohio
doesn't look to me to be as interested in helping people who will never give
them the spot light as they are showing how much they can hob-knob with
state reps, congressmen, CEO's and how they helped someone with enough cash
to provide their own access.  All along, I'm out here trying to cut corners,
work deals and provide the best service I can at cut rate prices so that
those without the car collection, lake cottage and masters degree can afford
it.  To be perfectly honest, I really don't think they are providing a
service that we didn't already have, aside from the mapping, and that could
have been setup perfectly well by a non-profit or even a for-profit firm who
have a local interest in this.  I have received years of experience from the
wireless community in a span of less than a year and it's free for the
asking.  There are even many here who, for a fee, and that's expected and
respected, come and help you out of a jam or show you how to do things
differently at all hours of the day and night.  

To have this CN person whip in once a month, pull out MS Project or Power
Point and go over what we need to do for the next month and an hour and a
half later leave...     For the Telco's, not for the Telco's,
for the Wisp, for the Dog Catcher, I really don't care.  Less "Schmooze" and
more action in the areas that need it most without all the crowing is all I
ask.  I learned this one thing a long time ago, "The busiest person in town
is the one you never know about.  The laziest person in town is the one who
is constantly telling everyone how busy they are".  I see a lot of "We're so
busy" coming from the non-tech side of this bunch.  "Too much talkie-talkie"
as I say in my most politically incorrect fake Chinese accent.

Now, and I'm not trying to be a jerk (sometimes I don't have to trysigh)
Did you pay them for any their services and if so, do you want to tell us a
rough range of what it was?  Not looking for fuel to add to it, I'm just
really interested because they had such a hard sell when I talked to them
and I dropped them quick.  I would totally expect their tech guys to be
straight shooters and good guys because I suspect they are like us and are
never at the top of the food chain.  It's the "suits" who muck it all up for
us.  

I will never fault anyone for paying for info and for help when they need
it, so I'm no finger pointer.  I've wasted plenty of my own cash (and a lot
more of my parents when I was younger.  Ask them.  After a long pause, my
father may be able to bring himself to tell you) on my own personal tech
addiction.  :)

My only point (and this is my last one, then I'll go back to lurking) is
that the comments appear to me that maybe we (WISPA members) were expecting
Connect Ohio / CN to be a wireless only advocate.  However, at least in
Ohio, they received money to push broadband - regardless of the way it
arrives at the home or business.  Where we have requested help with our
wireless business, we have received great help and and great cooperation.  I
don't expect them to "favor" wireless over FTTH or DSL, because those
providers are paying taxes too.  But where they do help me, I expect it to
be unbiased.  Their wireless folks have been straight shooters, and 100%
dedicated to helping our wireless be successful.  What limited success we've
had so far, we owe in a big part to Connected Nation / Connect Ohio.

Just curious but how will this work out for you guys in the end? 

Is it going to just give you guys access to middle mile facilities or is it
going to give you access to wholesale fiber to the home?

The way I see it is in our area if the rural areas ever get FTH most of us
out here are done because there just is no way to compete with fiber in the
wireless world.

I wouldn't see anything good coming out of a government funded FTH project
in IL for the small ISP's. Now if it was just middle mile facilities that
the ISP's could hook into then yeah it would provide a future for us.

 Looking based on

The grants were reviewed and scored by independent volunteers (I was one),
who scored each of them using a fairly complex rubric. It covered things
like "does this meet one of the government's broadband deployment and
economic stimulus goals," of course, but there also were a lot of points for
things like "is this budget realistic" and "will this technology actually do
what the applicant says it will." Obviously, the volunteers' scores weren't
the only factor considered by NTIA, but I'm proud to have been a bit of a
nonsense-filter. Obviously I can't talk about any of the specific
applications I reviewed, but the five applications, totaling over 1000
pages, had a couple doozies in there. Some folks were interested in trying
to build out broadband, others were pretty clearly just making a cash grab.
I'm hoping I was able to do a little bit to help the former and quell the
latter.

Re: [WISPA] Connected Nation

2009-12-17 Thread David Hannum
My only point (and this is my last one, then I'll go back to lurking) is
that the comments appear to me that maybe we (WISPA members) were expecting
Connect Ohio / CN to be a wireless only advocate.  However, at least in
Ohio, they received money to push broadband - regardless of the way it
arrives at the home or business.  Where we have requested help with our
wireless business, we have received great help and and great cooperation.  I
don't expect them to "favor" wireless over FTTH or DSL, because those
providers are paying taxes too.  But where they do help me, I expect it to
be unbiased.  Their wireless folks have been straight shooters, and 100%
dedicated to helping our wireless be successful.  What limited success we've
had so far, we owe in a big part to Connected Nation / Connect Ohio.

Re: [WISPA] stimulus announcements thus far

2009-12-17 Thread jp
It's a mix of miracles, talent, and deparation. 

Usually when the state government gets involved, Fairpoint (or whoever 
owns the phone company this week) manages to use their role in 
government to screw things up good. It's a miracle that didn't happen 
succesfully.

The backers AND planners are talented folks. Biddeford is the oldest 
Internet provider in the state (about a year older than us), and has 
worked with all the Internet providers (including us and competitors) 
and the university for planning/designing it properly from the ground 
up. The planners here are the talent. We all firmly believe the 
economics and expansion of Internet will be better with this than 
without. As far as I know this project has been planned exclusively by 
small clecs, ISPs, and the university.

Maine (and NH and VT) has a bankrupt phone company that has been 
shafting everyone for more than a decade. Prior to that, we were just a 
backwoods place where hand-me-down telco gear was installed when it 
wasn't good enough for Boston. It's the Internet supercowpath. The major 
ubiquitous fiber owners in Maine are the cable companies (which were 
recently bankrupt) and they don't have to share their fiber because of 
Brand-X, and they can't run fiber places they dont have franchise 
agreements for, since they'd have to cover the whole town. And then 
there is Fairpoint. Verizon skipped town with a 2+ billion dollars 
sellout and we got a debt ridden replacement with the same people, same 
plant, and different name. Fairpoint has fought at every level of 
government as a Bell to not have to provide wholesale access of anything 
whenever possible. Fairpoint has also been in big lawsuits preventing 
other companies from deploying fiber (see fairpoint/verizon versus 
oxford networks.) Thus, the only wide spread fiber is stuff bought with 
the blood of lawyers before wholesale agreements were nullified. Without 
wholesale access, prices are really such Fairpoint doesn't want to sell 
it, like thousands a month for just a local loop. Many people either 
want redundancy from fairpoint (a fair business need), or are looking to 
drop fairpoint like a lead balloon. There are also many places where 
fairpoint does not go, regardless of the price. Consumers can have a 
choice by porting to a cell phone or voip, but ISPs and large 
institutions haven't had any options for redundancy or a future when it 
comes to a better Internet middle mile. For the first time ever, people 
are starting to realize a duopoly isn't sufficient or ideal, especially 
when the Bell doesn't have the money to deploy end user DSL on schedule.

Yeah, you are an id10t!  Yikes.

It's only internet guys!  NO ONE IS GONNA DIE if it doesn't work.  Oh, they 
act like they will, but they wont.

Safety first, and last.  If you aren't safe out there, it'll be the last 
thing you do in this business or any other.  We get in enough jams just 
doing what we have to do.  Lets not compound the problem.

OK, having said that.  I keep a box full (yes a box full) of those chemical 
hand and foot warmers in the car this time of year.  EVERY car.  When I have 
to work outside for any amount of time (I tend to not wear gloves at all, 
can't work with them) I tape one to the inside of my wrist.  Right where 
you'd check your pulse.  That does an amazing job of warming the blood going 
into your hands.  Try it some time, you'll be amazed at how warm your hands 
stay.

You can also put one or two of them in your front pants pocket and that'll 
help keep your feet warm.  I found out that riding a dirt bike stirs up too 
much air and they get really hot!  I ended up with blistered skin on my legs 
from a couple of them.  If they start to feel too hot, they are.  I'd have

[WISPA] Fw: Michael Calabrese Congressional Testimony on Spectrum Inventory and Relocation

2009-12-17 Thread Marlon K. Schafer

Subject: Michael Calabrese Congressional Testimony on Spectrum Inventory and 
Relocation


 
   
   
  For Immediate Release
  December 16, 2009


  In testimony before the House Subcommittee on Communications, 
Technology and the Internet yesterday, Michael Calabrese, Vice President and 
director of the Foundation's Wireless Future Program, strongly endorsed two 
bipartisan bills that could greatly facilitate the opening of enormous new 
spectrum capacity for wireless broadband and other wireless innovation.  

  Calabrese also urged the Committee to expand H.R. 3125, the 
Radio Spectrum Inventory Act and H.R. 3019, the Spectrum Relocation Improvement 
Act of 2009 in ways that will promote shared access to very underutilized 
frequency bands that will not or cannot be cleared for auction in the 
foreseeable future. 

  Last week Assistant Secretary of Commerce Larry Strickling 
announced that Michael Calabrese has been appointed to the Commerce Spectrum 
Management Advisory Committee, which advises the Administration on a broad 
range of issues regarding spectrum policy and on needed reforms to domestic 
spectrum policies.   

  In his testimony, Calabrese emphasized the following key 
points and proposed improvements to the two proposed bills:


a.. The increasing capability and popularity of smartphones 
and other wireless computing devices will drive an explosion in mobile data 
demand. 

a.. Contrary to conventional wisdom, there is an abundance 
of unused spectrum capacity that can be reallocated band-by-band for exclusive 
or for shared use. 

a.. The spectrum inventory proposed in H.R. 3125 is 
critical to identifying underutilized bands and determining how best to expand 
access and improve spectrum efficiency. 

a.. Actual spectrum use measurements and, ideally, spectrum 
monitoring, would add an important layer of useful data to the inventory; this 
and other NTIA/FCC costs for a robust implementation should be funded from 
unused appropriations for the national broadband mapping data under the 
Broadband Data Improvement Act.

a.. Many federal bands are particularly well-suited for 
increased sharing with private sector uses, but this will require not just 
streamlining the CSEA's Spectrum Relocation Fund process, but also broadening 
eligibility so that agencies have the means to upgrade systems to share 
capacity on a far greater number of bands.

a.. A comprehensive spectrum inventory and CSEA reforms are 
also critical because it is neither practical nor desirable to rely entirely on 
new auctions of exclusively-licensed spectrum to meet the projected future 
demand for mobile data.

a.. Increasing opportunistic access to shared spectrum will 
enable hybrid networks, giving consumers the choice to transmit mobile data 
flows where feasible over unlicensed airwaves and local wired networks, rather 
than transporting most data over scarce licensed spectrum and relatively 
distant carrier infrastructure.

That's what the cost was for ConnectKY, I inquired about being a
partner.  Inquire about being a partner and let us know how much it is.

Re: [WISPA] ConnectOhio/ CN Comments Dave Hannum

2009-12-17 Thread Chuck Hogg
While to you it may not be immediately evident, the partners listed here
paid at least $10k to be a partner.  As such, they are the ones who are
being pushed.  This is the way it was done in KY.  I noticed that
WildBlue and Hughes was not listed for ConnectOhio, maybe that is
because they too saw the scam in ConnectKY.

So they may have learned and adjusted the way they operate on some
levels.
My experience with the tech side was when they first started contacting
providers in our area.  It was all hard sell for $$$ and no free help.
But
as I said, they must have changed their ways in that respect.  

We also don't hear any mention of WildBlue, DSL or cell providers so
obviously they have indeed learned.

I will have to agree with David Hannum at New Era. about CO?CN operation
people. Chip and Layne
Although our dealing with ConnectOhio, have not been a delight, and we
find
them going from one whim to another robbing the State of Ohio.
There new project RFP by State for broadband expansion seems to be a
great
idea.
Although they have split the wireless venders with Congressman Zach
Space
medical project, that would be just what they set out to do.
ConnectOhio, is vendor savvy, but doesn't push any Wild Blue in our
Counties
nor anyone except Horizon Telephone Company. Which is going with Fed
monies
lay fiber to almost everyone in South Eastern Ohio. Putting Wireless
operators out of business.
So draw your own conclusions about CN

I do the same but sadly the "magic reboot" seems to help in most cases.  And
I agree, if it had wireless I'd buy bunches but they still look to be handy
at the price for wired small business networks.

A 750 is the same price point as a Linksys/Dlink/Netgear router, but lacks
wireless.  If it had wireless many sales would be made.

I don't deal much with the customers' routers.  Mostly it's "reboot it, try

If you need something done on a network level..expect MT can do it.

My CPE template contains:

/interface pppoe-client
add ac-name="" add-default-route=yes allow=pap,chap,mschap1,mschap2
comment=\
"" dial-on-demand=no disabled=no interface=wlan1 max-mru=1480 max-mtu=\
1480 mrru=disabled name=pppoe-out1 profile=default \
service-name="" use-peer-dns=yes

Then you just change the user= and password= to suit.

When I helped someone over the phone I just had them click add and specify
the user/password so I'm pretty sure all of those are default values.

Good stuff, thanks Josh.

Sounds like I should just put RouterOS at the head end of the remote
networks.  Makes sense to me.  Then run DUDE on them all and we'll be good,
at least that's the way it seems to me.  Then the monitoring and
administration can be done in one app.  Wanting to go to PPPoE, the MT can
give me that option within RouterOS itself then, I think.  Correct me if I'm
whacked here.

Re: [WISPA] ConnectOhio/ CN Comments Dave Hannum

2009-12-17 Thread Robert West
So they may have learned and adjusted the way they operate on some levels.
My experience with the tech side was when they first started contacting
providers in our area.  It was all hard sell for $$$ and no free help.  But
as I said, they must have changed their ways in that respect.  

We also don't hear any mention of WildBlue, DSL or cell providers so
obviously they have indeed learned.

I will have to agree with David Hannum at New Era. about CO?CN operation
people. Chip and Layne
Although our dealing with ConnectOhio, have not been a delight, and we find
them going from one whim to another robbing the State of Ohio.
There new project RFP by State for broadband expansion seems to be a great
idea.
Although they have split the wireless venders with Congressman Zach Space
medical project, that would be just what they set out to do.
ConnectOhio, is vendor savvy, but doesn't push any Wild Blue in our Counties
nor anyone except Horizon Telephone Company. Which is going with Fed monies
lay fiber to almost everyone in South Eastern Ohio. Putting Wireless
operators out of business.
So draw your own conclusions about CN

Re: [WISPA] Ethernet Cabling

Not sure about that old snot stuff, but the Mohawk stuff comes off 
pretty easily.  I keep one of those plastic pull up baby wipe things 
in the trailer.  The baby wipes clean it right off the ends when I'm 
prepping for a crimp, and off my hands when done.  I like that 
"lanolin" like stuff much better than the old icky pick.

[WISPA] ConnectOhio/ CN Comments Dave Hannum

2009-12-17 Thread bcochran
I will have to agree with David Hannum at New Era. about CO?CN operation
people. Chip and Layne
Although our dealing with ConnectOhio, have not been a delight, and we find
them going from one whim to another robbing the State of Ohio.
There new project RFP by State for broadband expansion seems to be a great
idea.
Although they have split the wireless venders with Congressman Zach Space
medical project, that would be just what they set out to do.
ConnectOhio, is vendor savvy, but doesn't push any Wild Blue in our Counties
nor anyone except Horizon Telephone Company. Which is going with Fed monies
lay fiber to almost everyone in South Eastern Ohio. Putting Wireless
operators out of business.
So draw your own conclusions about CN

Re: [WISPA] Connected Nation

2009-12-17 Thread Robert West
I understand that but the way the thing reads, she can go anyplace now, that
sounds like a cell card which she could have had already at the lake.  As
far as class, access to broadband is limited only by cash, for the most
part.  WildBlue is already available as long as you can see sky as well as
probably high speed data from a cell company.  My issue was the beating of
the drum that someone who I assume already had access by virtue of
disposable cash (cottage, vintage cars, etc.) can get her email.  Why hold
someone up like that as an example of what can be accomplished when I'm sure
there are more compelling stories from the have nots?  

Just my thoughts on it.

Bob,

There's not a lot of money in Meigs County Ohio where we are, but where the
folks with money live in our county is where the broadband aint.  The
customers we are picking up are all across the board.  Including the upper
class who are sick of paying for satellite.  Satellite is an option, but
wireless is better.  You can't VPN or remote access (in a usable manner) via
satellite.  So just because somebody can afford a cottage does not mean they
have broadband.  Besides, those are the folks who buy the packages you have
the greatest margin on.  Among our key clients is a doctor, who is also the
county cornorer and the EMS director.  It helps patients and the county that
these folks can now work from home.  The need for broadband transends class.

WildBlue and Hughsnet work for for folks who can't get ANYTHING else and can
AFFORD it.  We're picking thos folks up right and left.  I've had both
before.  Better than dialup - but just barely.  Cost is a killer.  And a

2009-12-17 Thread Robert West
Sure!  And let's see  You are a small business owner located in
KENTUCKY.  You pay taxes in KENTUCKY.  You employee people in KENTUCKY.  

How much of the WildBlue or Hughesnet subscription dollars stay in KENTUCKY?
Or ATT or DSL, Cable...  etc.  

What a flippin' no brainer!  

But it's dollars over brains, in most cases.

Glad you ran them out.  I usually don't know what in the hell I'm talking
about but I can see that one very clearly.

How broadband changed my life 

I am a 48-year-old married mother of four with what you can imagine is a
very busy life. My husband and I enjoy traveling, collecting and showing
vintage cars, spending time at our cottage on Lake Erie and sailing. Our
children range in age from 17 to 22, and we are currently hosting a
17-year-old exchange student from Brazil. Broadband has had two major
influences on my life:

1. It has allowed me to log on to my work network from anywhere. I can
work
from home or check e-mails from the cottage. No longer am I tethered to
my
desk at work in order to get work done. 

2. It has allowed me to  further my education. I have recently gone back
to
school to obtain my master's degree in Management Information
Technology.
With my busy lifestyle, there is no way I could have realized this dream
if
I had to attend classes at a bricks and mortar school. The speed and
convenience of broadband allows me to take all of my courses online,
from
anywhere.


Uh. Here's my keywords in this.  Vintage cars (plural) Cottage on
Lake
Erie, sailing, exchange student, Masters Degree in Information
Technology.

If I had to guess I would say that this person probably already had
broadband before CN came along in one form or another and from the way
it
reads where she can go anyplace and be online, sounds like a wireless
card
from a cell company.

Re: [WISPA] I'm an idiot

2009-12-17 Thread Robert West
Living with a female has taught me that I must openly admit that I am an
idiot at every opportunity or risk being perceived as thinking that I am
"Mr. Perfect" or thinking that "I am never wrong".  I have been trying to
mend my ways and try to understand that no matter what I do that feels like
an accomplishment, it is, in fact, a failure.  I'm learning.

As the Possum Lodge "Man's Prayer" goes...

Such revelations can be most helpful in guiding future actions.

however, public admissions of said revelations can be, err...   Well, I'll 
just pretend I never read it and you pretend you never said it...

Hey, anyone read the bit in the news... about the job you should be EVER so 
grateful you do NOT currently hold?

It seems that the "climate conference" in Denmark is open to specific 
organizations, which have to meet specific qualifications.   Best estimates 
say that approximately 35,000 to 40,000 people hold credentials to be 
admitted to the conference.

Some planner reserved a building that only holds about 15,000.There's 
thousands of people who cannot get admission, though they have proper 
credentials.   Many of them are waiting outside for spaces to open up 
inside...  In sub zero (F) weather.

The story goes that in the minor leagues, a young and inexperienced relief 
pitcher was called in on the final inning, and second batter up drove a home

run off the first pitch.In the aftermath of the game,  the young pitcher

discovered a famous pennant winning pitcher for a major league big city team

was in the stands and he asked advice... "How would you have pitched that 
last one?"  he asked.Without hesitation, the famous veteran said "Under 
an assumed name".

That planner should probably have done the same.

Re: [WISPA] Connected Nation

2009-12-17 Thread Robert West
Maybe I'm sensitive or easily put off but the last Newsletter that we
received from the Connect Ohio division of CN had me "almost" confront the
CN coordinator at the meeting.  I know that the mission is to provide
broadband to EVERYONE and that includes those who can already afford access,
(?) but every newsletter I get seems to be pandering to who they are getting
their money from and doesn't have much to do with providing broadband in
rural areas.  (Many examples of AT&T big shots in photo ops with state and
local politicians donating PC's to schools and similar activities)

Here is the word for word front page article in their newsletter.  This
alone caused me to rethink any participation in their "efforts" or lack of.


( Link is here  http://www.connectohio.org/ )

How broadband changed my life 

I am a 48-year-old married mother of four with what you can imagine is a
very busy life. My husband and I enjoy traveling, collecting and showing
vintage cars, spending time at our cottage on Lake Erie and sailing. Our
children range in age from 17 to 22, and we are currently hosting a
17-year-old exchange student from Brazil. Broadband has had two major
influences on my life:

1. It has allowed me to log on to my work network from anywhere. I can work
from home or check e-mails from the cottage. No longer am I tethered to my
desk at work in order to get work done. 

2. It has allowed me to  further my education. I have recently gone back to
school to obtain my master's degree in Management Information Technology.
With my busy lifestyle, there is no way I could have realized this dream if
I had to attend classes at a bricks and mortar school. The speed and
convenience of broadband allows me to take all of my courses online, from
anywhere.


Uh. Here's my keywords in this.  Vintage cars (plural) Cottage on Lake
Erie, sailing, exchange student, Masters Degree in Information Technology.

If I had to guess I would say that this person probably already had
broadband before CN came along in one form or another and from the way it
reads where she can go anyplace and be online, sounds like a wireless card
from a cell company.

Where is the relevance in this to what we are trying to accomplish?  Just
sounded like they were spotlighting someone that the people in charge could
identify with instead of the single unemployed mother in rural Appalachia
who is now able to sell her recipes or quilts or whatever to a world
market...blah, blah, blah.  A REAL change in someone's life, not just so
some well to do middle aged educational tech coordinator can check her email
while riding in one of their vintage cars or in the sail boat  Shsh.

"Look, look!  We helped your sister and now she can get her email while
relaxing at the cottage on the lake after a long day of sailing!"

Makes me sick.

Trying to connect remote networks into one. I'll probably end up doing just
that, stick a MT at the head end of the remote network. Would have
additional benefits anyhow, I guess.  No matter how I slice it, Mikrotik
always seems to be involved. :)
