Re: [WISPA] Article in a farm magazine

2010-05-26 Thread Robert West
Interesting.  I've sold quite a lot of the old Nano2s to farmers for the
same reason.  Sometimes over the counter as retail and others where we go
out to put in the private link for them  One thing all the farmers want is
internet in the barn!

Hi Justin,

Check with Ligowave support (supp...@ligowave.com) and get an updated fw
image.  It improves the performance quite a bit especially in noisy
environments.

And yes they are certified.

Re: [WISPA] Fast DNS cache

2010-05-26 Thread Jon Auer
For what its worth, Google namebench (
http://code.google.com/p/namebench/ ) showed that our caching DNS
servers were faster than Google's public ones or OpenDNS. Guess our
users keep the cache warm.
I'd encourage everyone to run namebench and tune up their DNS servers
or select the fastest ones.

What works for us at the moment is 3 boxes running Unbound on Solaris
10 behind IOS SLB load balancer.
Both our DNS IPs live on the load balance and it does round robin
across all servers.

Next iteration will get rid of IOS SLB in favor of pairs of servers at
different locations anycasting the DNS IPs.

 If you're looking for off-site service, I'm surprised Google isn't
 plugging their own public caching-only DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and
 8.8.4.4, I think).

 If you want to install your own, just use BIND.

[WISPA] Ligo Wave

2010-05-26 Thread Steve Barnes
Looking at pros and Cons of the LigoWave 5GHz PTP MiMo Units.  I have a price 
of <$1200 /end compared to $2100 /end for RADWIN 2000c.  RADWIN is solid and a 
good unit.  But saving $1800 on a single link is a extra vacation.

Re: [WISPA] Fast DNS cache

2010-05-26 Thread Tom DeReggi
Not necessarilly.

There are two points for bottle necks.

One is the time it takes to respond to an inquirey from your end user, for 
cached content. That can be related to distance to the end user, processsing 
power/load.
The second is time to resolve DNS info and populate your cache, when a cache 
hit is not successful by end user. This can be effected by distance to 
authorative cache servers, the size of the cache, the odds of common DNS 
queries by all end users, and and processing load on all servers involved, 
including congestion on remote authorative DNS servers.

The principle behind Internet born public DNS servers is that the chances of 
a cache hit will be higher, because the odds the site has preveiously been 
looked up is higher with more users using it. Gaining a cache hit 
drastically increases performance, beyond that of new lookups or any 
bandwidth latency or transfer rate limits injected in to the equation.  The 
second is simply hassle of managing your own. The third is potential for 
better diversity.  My point here is that managed public sservers can in many 
cases give better performance. More so, if provider optimizes their hardware 
selection/solution, and if servers are hosted nearby such as in same data 
center your transit terminates at.

We host our own servers for one reason, but it is not performance. IF we 
ever have a transit outage or dispute, we do NOT want our end user's DNS 
disrupted. It creates way to many service calls and accelerates the time 
period in which subscribers notice a problem. (For example, Email loosing 
password, after pop server does not resolve)

Its also relevent to point out using a lcoal server for primary and a public 
server for secondary is not always ideal. The reason is that not all 
services query primary DNS1 first.
Some applications may do a round robin approach, alternating which DNS it 
checks. My point is secondary DNS may not just be relevent for 
diversity/redundancy.

I am embarrassed to ask here but I am going to anyway.  

I have some customers laptops that have been here lately with the "Free
Public WiFi" ssid on them.  I know that this is a Microsoft screw up on
the Zero Wireless Connections.  I have made the stations so that they
can only connect to a AP in the future.  But the "Free Public WiFi" SSID
still shows up on the systems even when the Wireless card is turned off.
I have removed all preferred SSIDs and still nothing.  Any one know how
to kill this out of a Win XP system. (without going to Linux)

[WISPA] Mikrotik routing/queing problem

2010-05-26 Thread Kevin Sullivan
 I think I have found a legitimate bug.  I'm running an RB1000 that 
we put in service about 2 weeks ago (it replaced another RB1000 that was 
having similar problems).  Here is what is going on:

Linux router  "A" <-> [ether1] RB1000 [ether3] <---> Linux 
router "B"


The RB1000 above is connected to the two hosts shown.   
Each link A < > RB1000 < > B has latency ~1ms.  We are not using any 
Mikrotik wireless.

A and B both know that they can reach each other through the RB1000 (thanks 
to OSPF).

A and B are Linux routers.  When I ping B from A (traffic going through the 
RB1000), I get no response.  When I log into B and tcpdump traffic, I can 
see icmp echo request packets coming in from A, and echo reply packets going 
out to A.  Fine.  I then log into the RB1000 and packet sniff ether1 and 
ether3.

ether1 packet sniff shows icmp request packets coming in.  ether3 shows icmp 
request packets going out, and icmp reply packets coming in.  However, the 
replies are not going out ether1.

BUT after several minutes, A starts seeing replies.

64 bytes from x.x.x.x: icmp_seq=1049 ttl=63 time=671216 ms
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: icmp_seq=1095 ttl=63 time=628217 ms
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: icmp_seq=1142 ttl=63 time=584217 ms
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: icmp_seq=1188 ttl=63 time=541218 ms
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: icmp_seq=1235 ttl=63 time=497234 ms

the RB1000 has been queuing my ICMP packets for ~500 seconds!!

I STOP pinging from A and packet sniff ether1 on the RB1000 again.  It is 
STILL sending out queued ICMP replies from A, even though I am 
not sending requests anymore.

Several minutes after I stop pinging from A, the RB1000 stops sending 
replies on ether1.

Clients have been complaining for months about slow speeds passing traffic 
through this router.  I've also noticed high CPU utilization, even when 
normal CPU hungry tasks were turned off (one mangle rule, no queues, no 
proxy, no DNS, etc).   During the day, we see 70-80% CPU utilization.  The 
previous router (same config) went to 100% utilization, which is why we 
replaced it.

Regards,

Kevin

For fun I name all the private wifi routers to an SSID of "Virus".  The

I am embarrassed to ask here but I am going to anyway.  

I have some customers laptops that have been here lately with the "Free
Public WiFi" ssid on them.  I know that this is a Microsoft screw up on
the Zero Wireless Connections.  I have made the stations so that they
can only connect to a AP in the future.  But the "Free Public WiFi" SSID
still shows up on the systems even when the Wireless card is turned off.
I have removed all preferred SSIDs and still nothing.  Any one know how
to kill this out of a Win XP system. (without going to Linux)

That's ping time not dns resolution time, but I guess it at least says

If you're looking for off-site service, I'm surprised Google isn't
plugging their own public caching-only DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and
8.8.4.4, I think).

If you want to install your own, just use BIND.

[WISPA] Fast DNS cache

2010-05-26 Thread Mike Hammett
I am setting up some new DNS servers and I'd like to figure out what the 
quickest caching DNS server is.  Google keeps telling me to go to Open 
DNS.  I'm not opposed to them and may use them as either primary or 
secondary, but I want at least one server within my own network.

Recommendations?

Separately, I will be setting up a resolving server for my own stuff.

Re: [WISPA] Free Public WiFi

...a little OT, but, after being party to all the "free" craziness of
Earthlink, etc. just the title "Free Public Wi-Fi" makes me break out in
hives...

Subject: [WISPA] Free Public WiFi

I am embarrassed to ask here but I am going to anyway.  

I have some customers laptops that have been here lately with the "Free
Public WiFi" ssid on them.  I know that this is a Microsoft screw up on
the Zero Wireless Connections.  I have made the stations so that they
can only connect to a AP in the future.  But the "Free Public WiFi" SSID
still shows up on the systems even when the Wireless card is turned off.
I have removed all preferred SSIDs and still nothing.  Any one know how
to kill this out of a Win XP system. (without going to Linux)

es-or-free-public-wifi-phenomenon-part-2

To stop WZC from doing this you can either turn it off or set it to only use
APs. To turn it off for once and all do a Start -> Run and type in
"services.msc." Once in the services display, scroll down to Wireless Zero
Configuration and right click on it to edit it. There, you'll want to turn
it off and set it Startup Type from Automatic to either Manual or disabled.

If you want to keep WZC around, you can stop it from using ad hoc networks
-- which isn't a bad idea anyway -- by clicking on the System Tray's
Wireless icon and heading to the Wireless Network Connection window. Once
there, click on "Change advanced settings," and click on the Wireless
Network Tab in the Wireless Network Connection Properties window. From here,
click on the Advanced button and set it so that it will "Access point
(infrastructure) networks only."

Re: [WISPA] Bandwidth

2010-05-26 Thread jp
There is no such thing as collisions now on ethernet/fiber as we use switches 
instead of 
hubs. Each link is full duplex and capable of handing 100% capacity.

However if you basing utilization on 5 minute averages like MRTG, keep in mind 
that's a 
5 minute average and you could be going from frequent 100% utilization to 50% 
utilization within that 5 minute interval, so 75% utilization could be 
considered full 
under those circumstances if you want to avoid dropped packets.

2010-05-26 Thread Jeremie Chism
They have a portal you can use to access all incoming and outgoing  
faxes. They are stored there for some period of time (not sure how  
long, I think at least a month). If you try to view the faxes in IE  
you get an error message. They say they are working on it but it has  
been going on for months. It works fine on chrome, firefox, opera. If  
all you want to do is send and receive faxes you don't need the  
portal.  Also they can setup to have your incoming faxes emailed to  
you.  Faxxbochs will work over any Internet connection. If the  
Internet goes down they hold your faxes until it comes back up.

Re: [WISPA] Newly open source BitTorrent protocol aims to unclog tubes

2010-05-26 Thread Robert West
I can understand how it would sense network usage on the customer side but
how in the heck is the protocol able to sense what the rest of my network is
doing?  Even with that, I don't see how it will stop sucking capacity when
it is still transferring the same amount of data no matter what time of day
it is.  And good luck having users set download times.  Just because they
can doesn't mean they will.  In my experience, they want that download NOW!
If not they wouldn't be complaining about slow speeds

BitTorrent Inc. has opened the source code of a new BitTorrent

the developers, the uTP protocol will eliminate the need for ISPs to
throttle BitTorrent traffic.
