Re: [WISPA] Service in Finger Lakes?
Rob, FirstLight purchased the assets of FingerLake Technologies and had Fiber Optic facilities in the area for Middle Mile. Frontier was awarded funding in the New NY Broadband Grant in that general area along with Hughes (satellite). The closet WISP that I know of is Clarity Fiber Solutions in Ithaca, NY or NYSYS in Rochester, NY.

Re: [WISPA] SBA tower / Avetta compliance
Sean, Some of our fortune 500 clients require us to use the Avetta / PICS system. It’s a time consuming and expensive process costing around $800 - $1,000 annually and mountains of paperwork. Although we have not worked on SBA towers, we may add them to the list of eligible businesses. We used U.S. Compliance Systems to prepare a safety manual for the Avetta System. Here is a link to purchase: https://www.uscompliancesystems.com/communication-tower-installation-contractors I would caution against copy/pasting from manuals. The Avetta system requires you to list a Compliance Officer to certify the accuracy of the information. By doing so, you may be accepting personal and professional liability. Feel free to contact me offline, and I will be happy to step you thru the process.

Re: [WISPA] Are we being muscled out of the 5265 - 5700 frequencies?
Chuck has it right. See below. 33. Antenna Gain. Under Section 15.247, the assumed antenna gain is 6 dBi, with a 1 dB reduction in power required for every 1 dB that the antenna gain exceeds 6 dBi. For fixed point-to-point systems, no power reduction is required. Section 15.407 assumes the same antenna gain of 6 dBi, with 1 dB reduction in power required for every 1 dB that gain exceeds 6 dBi. For fixed point-to-point systems, a 1 dB reduction in power is required for every 1 dB that gain exceeds 23 dBi. The only difference between the two rule parts is the maximum antenna gain that can be deployed without a penalty in transmitter power. We propose to apply the more stringent 23 dBi maximum antenna gain that is currently required under Section 15.407. We believe that using the more stringent antenna gain requirement will ensure that there is no increase in the potential for interference from unlicensed devices operating under the new combined rule parts.

First the latest firmware update removes compliance test which for about 40% of our equipment deployed would render them unusable since 5735 - 5840 runs at - 50dBm or higher noise levels in our area, Second is new product released only supports 5735 - 5840. Seems like DFS is such a pain that manufacturers do not want to mess with it. Case in point the new NanoBeam M series only support 5725-5850 for USA. Worldwide version which we are not allowed to buy or deploy supports 5170-5875.

Here is the situation. We have a remote water tank (stand pipe 75' high) that has a few homes around it. So, we have a 9000APC and a connectorized 2450AP on the tower, both on Omni's. The antennas are on a stand almost exactly 4' apart. There are six subs on the 900MHz radio.

I swapped the radio again yesterday, and today, I'm back in the same boat. The radio in the AP keeps going out. I had the climbers check the grounding, and we actually ran a dedicated ground yesterday off the water tank. My knee jerk feeling today is that maybe the radios are too close together, and the 2450 is burning up the 900. Could this be the case? Any ideas? Here is an example of what happens. Customers that run signals -47 to -57 become -70 to -75 and those who's signals were -70 and up fall clear off. Swap the radio, and everything goes back to normal. This is now three radios that have gone, each lasting a much shorter time than the previous. (this one did not make it 24 hours).

Signal back. That lasted about four weeks. Swapped radio again, and signal back. Lasted about 12 hours this time. No visible damage to any of the radios. No moisture found inside.

Attached is a Airview scan of what I'm seeing, the 910mhz signal is the concern. It is intermittent, usually occurring in the early to mid morning for a few minutes or up to hours. My first thought is baby monitor/cordless phone but I'm seeing it on the south facing sector of two towers, separated by 3 miles north-south distance. The south tower sees it at around a -60 and the north tower around a -70. These are 100-120ft towers in a heavily wooded area, I would not expect ground-level interference to be visible from both, right?. So, any suggestions as to possible sources? Driving around with an antenna is my next step, but hard to do on an intermittent signal. -Inline Attachment Follows- ___ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless ___ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless

Can you assist as to why Wisp coverage is not represented? Please read the email below my signature line. Also, here are some other comments from other providers. · Merrill, MI: Our coverage area is not displayed on that map. Is it only including wireline providers? · Jackson, MI: My coverage update for the 2nd to last round is not there, but the rest is. The map is for 3Meg svc. and up also. · Steamboat Springs: If you hover over a county a popup chart on the right shows up and displays the demographics for that county and % of broadband that is Fiber, Cable, DSL, or fixed wireless. both the counties we serve show 0% fixed wireless. · Yuma: wow, they have my area as covered as NON-Rural DSL and Cable no wireless links at all..I think someone fixed the books on this info. As its completely BS.. 1. everything out here in our area is Rural..2. No wireless listed at ALL ( there are 2 providers ourselves and the telco to the south of us) 3. The local cable company has only a handful of customers 4. says that over 3500 folks in my county have NO internet.. Complete and total BS.. This is farm country and I'd PAY to find more than 50 homes that don't have internet. Again.. the books have been cooked, thanks to either bad info or competition.

We have not been able to isolate any commonalities between the customer's computers, operating systems, antivirus software, routers, radios, frequency, and even access points. At one point, we thought that we had the problem narrowed down to Netgear routers but after having a customer bypass it, issue still occurred. One of the customers had a computer consultant come look at their system and when they switched to the consultants MyFi the problem stopped... Then as soon as they went back onto our WiFi connection, the problem returned. Has anyone had something like this happen to your network? Any ideas on where to look next? -- Thanks!

I have some customers inside a
1 mile radius of a POP. We want to use a rocket M900 with an omni
antenna and put a dummy load on the other RPSMA lead, since we couldn't find
any
MIMO 900MHz omni available.
Does anyone have
any experience doing this?

If I said this is what WISPA should do and laid it out in detail, all you'd do is say who are you? Why should we hacve to do what you say? Frankly, I have no idea why you're having difficulty. You see, when you have proper business principles as your guiding mechanism, what you should do is crystal clear. Nobody needs to write out a plan of action, it becomes self evident - you always advocate FOR the proper and best thing. And, after being consistent, year after year, and when stuff like this comes up, which becomes so blatantly obviously a result of failure to follow true principle, again, nothing is obscure or difficult. Additionally, I said absolutely NOTHING partisan. Not even ideological. It's simple straightforward business principles. Principle Numero Uno is have the freedom to be in business, and there is nothing convoluted or difficult about that. You seem to be interested in mere expediency. That's what's gotten us to this crisis point, the idea of managing the favoritism, the cronyism, etc, to favor you, or at least not hurt you too much. That's what's BEEN going on. Had we (WISPA) been looking for and actively seeking allies who would with us, say with many voices, but one message - hands off, and be a steward of what's entrusted to you, I think the landscape would look different. The word steward is loaded. It means one entrusted to manage things for the benefit OF THE OWNER, that's us. The FCC and Congress are managing for the benefit of the federal treasury and the donations to campaigns - which is the polar opposite of managed for the good of the people. In the previous post, I wrote an analogy, one where the city effectively puts every service and business up for licensure at auction. It takes no imagination at all to see that the city coffers and the winning bidder are the beneficiaries and the people are the losers. Spectrum is a public or national resource held in trust by the federal government. Auctions to the highest bidder do not benefit anyone but the monopoly holder and the treasury, by creating monopolies or very limited competition. Again, we as consumers and businessmen are the losers. Imagine if there were enough spectrum delegated so that if us WISP's wanted to be mobile broadband providers we could, as well as cellular, or even video / audio broadcasters. Instead, such services have been delegated a minute slice of available spectrum, keeping up the price of the auctions - and the number of competitors down. Why? It is in the interest of politicians to separate us from our money. But their REAL job is to defend us keeping it. There are NOW myriad political allies to spread this message, to change the discussion from whom to screw out of lots of money to what is the best policy for the people and keep competition alive? And, that's the message that is NOT being advocated by WISPA, and it should be. You seem to think that the answer is to find the right pol to influence and the right committee members to lobby and the right allies to obstruct X or advance Y, but those are expediency, not principle. They should be TACTICS to a principled purpose, one that will attract others, on the basis of its soundness and validity. And lastly, about the FCC, the last administration's appointees were advocates for free markets and for competition and deregulation. Not particularly effective ones, but at least they were not our enemy. The current administration's people at the FCC are IN NO WAY our friend, for any way, manner, or purpose, and everything they want is bad for us and the country.

Re: [WISPA] Bandwidth Usage Caps Examples?
They WISP that I work with actually implements no bandiwdth caps and uses it as a marketing strategy against the local cable company. The cable company uses the model of guaranteeing speeds, but charging $x for y GB over some arbitrary cap. They also provide a package geared for video that has no bandwidth caps, but also does not guarantee any speed. Also, given ATT's, the other local competitor, decision to implement caps, this WISP is the _only_ local provider that does have any sort of caps. Holler off-list if you would like more specifics.

Re: [WISPA] Backend systems
Thought I would just chime back in a little bit on this subject: No experience with Powercode, but with Platypus we can do RADIUS (PPPoE) authentication and control the profiles from within Platypus with account types, assign the appropriate rate limiting, static IP addresses, etc etc - everything controlled within Platypus. Took a little tweaking to get this to work with VOP RADIUS and Mikrotik, but we made it happen (had more to do with Mikrotik and VOP than it did Platypus though). Probably going to move to FreeRadius sometime soon as VOPRadius is no longer a supported product. We're integrated with ModusMail as well, so all email management is within Platypus. We have been using Wombat for quite some time and love it. Fantastic that it's now going to be an integrated part of Platypus. Had a little learning curve at first, but the last revision of it made it WAY more user friendly. Using IPPay now for CC billing - integrated into Platypus. We use Tucows / Platypus for paper statements - click three buttons and our printing is sent off for us at VERY reasonable rates. Monitoring is still not there within Plat though, but I have a feeling it's just a matter of time. We've also had difficulty getting Plat to do everything we want with our web hosting customers from within Plat itself, but it's not that big of a deal to do the things we need to do manually for our size web hosting operation. If we had hundreds of customers we'd integrate with a control panel that works with Platypus as well. Online customer pages, online staff use pages, online knowledgebase, and more - all integrated with Platypus. Hope all this info helps out a little bit.

Re: [WISPA] OT: Printer recommendations
I would personally run far away from Dell. They used to be rebranded Lexmarks, but were proprietary in their ink config. Their cartridges and toner seem to be more expensive than some of the others and like someone else mentioned, hard to come by without ordering direct from Dell. We have had great luck over the years with HP, but I agree that some of the later stuff has been a little shaky. I'll add one more plus for Epson - they seem to really be moving to the head of the pack with inkjet and officejet level printers. IMHO HP is still then best in the laser printers though. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Mike Hammett Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 8:50 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] OT: Printer recommendations I was considering their Office Jet Laser series, but was hesitant to spend even more money on an HP when they've continually failed me.

I'd actually steer clear of Dell and just go with whoever makes the Dell model you're looking at due to their hard to find proprietary ink.

To answer your question from my end, I've had great luck with Sonicwalls and their content filtering. For a very large enterprise it can tend to get a bit costly, but it works great. I'm not a fan of their stuff for a head-end router though, but for content filtering it does pretty good - especially if you need to integrate it with Active Directory.

Re: [WISPA] Webcam
If money is not an issue then an Axis camera is GREAT. But, I've done a cheap setup too with a $100 camera and windows media encoder streaming to windows media server. Works great until there is a blip in connectivity and the encoder loses connection to the server. Encoder has to be restarted. I've put in a nightly reboot routine to counteract that. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Jeremie Chism Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2010 5:27 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Webcam A group of radio stations that I provide phone and Internet service would like to setup a webcam in a few of their studios to stream video to their website.

Re: [WISPA] Mikrotik Dude 2GB Limitation

Re: [WISPA] Mikrotik Dude 2GB Limitation
Oh, I remember now. Dude from time to time would just stop responding for no real reason and we had to bring down the router to get it going again. We had it running at that time on a router that wasn't critical, but became real inconvenient to reboot. It got to the point that it was becoming a daily thing so we dropped it on RouterOS and went back to WinXP. If I go back to RouterOS it will be on a dedicated RouterOS system just for Dude. We never figured out what was going on with it when it would quit responding - worked with Mikrotik support a little bit on it but we weren't interested in spending much time on it - we just moved on to a different setup. That has been a couple of years ago so things may have changed since then. We also would lose all history when we restarted RouterOS, but I think that was because it was not configured correctly, or because we were running it on an RB433. At any rate it probably wasn't a big deal to work around / fix if we had spent some time on it but I just decided to move it back to an XP box and go on.

I do auto download on the updates, but I install them myself - normally late at night. Last thing I want is a bad patch killing my network and a critical server. Hardware firewall - or something dedicated to firewalling. Windows firewall sucks - not very configurable and gets in the way when you don't want it to, and won't move out of the way when you do want it to. Avira is fantastic and we're migrating all of our commercial stuff to it (paid version).

That has been a couple of years ago so things may have changed since then. We also would lose all history when we restarted RouterOS, but I think that was because it was not configured correctly, or because we were running it on an RB433. At any rate it probably wasn't a big deal to work around / fix if we had spent some time on it but I just decided to move it back to an XP box and go on.

If you have a cheap linksys router, you can create a triple radio and go full speed up to 4 or 5 hops. I've done this with Engenius gear (with 5ghz for the backhaul), I learned it from a guy who has done it several hops deep with the Ubiquiti gear.

Re: [WISPA] WISPA Ex Parte Filing from yesterday
Fred,many of those tvws channels are untouchable,unless you run your tx at 40mw.A full duplex system has the ap at full power on one channel,the s/u tx ing on a low power only channel in full duplex.Many more channels are then available and you may now see the reason for this...BTW,those low power channels are considered mobile and wouldnt have all the restrictions.Do you see my point?Jason --- On Thu, 10/14/10, Fred Goldstein fgoldst...@ionary.com wrote: From: Fred Goldstein fgoldst...@ionary.com Subject: Re: [WISPA] WISPA Ex Parte Filing from yesterday To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Date: Thursday, October 14, 2010, 8:58 PM At 10/14/2010 08:35 PM, Jason Bailey wrote: In the days of two way radio,we had a great tx site,but low power handhelds(customer radios) couldnt be heard well by the reciever at that main tx site.We then installed remote reciever sites to be able to better hear the handhelds(customer radios)They uaually heard the main tx site fine. Jason That makes sense when power is highly asymmetrical, as with an HT. However, power limits on TVWS are all low -- 4 W ERP max for a fixed unit -- so there's little reason to do that. A wireless mic (personal/portable) system just might, if it has to cover a fairly large area, but that's not what WISPs need. And wireless mics (non-fixed devices) aren't subject to the HAAT limit; their receivers can be anywhere too. Channels up to 20 are only usable by Fixed devices. The term receive only is not defined in the recent TVWS Order. It was used in the old days for satellite receivers, back when you needed a license to legally pick up a satellite signal. They dropped TVRO licensing after a lot of rural people had put in unauthorized dishes (remember those), prior to the start of DBS services. ju the only snarky insults are the ones that you contributed. Oh, and Jack, I actually did read the whole new policy. Why do you think I joined the great silence greeting a certain other poster's partisan comments earlier today? I'm seriously asking about what you meant, and what position was expressed to the FCC. Really. You didn't answer me. Unless you think worth precisely zero was an insult, though I meant it quite literally. I work with an organization that is pulling a ton of middle-mile fiber which we hope will be attractive to WISPs, to serve currently unserved areas. I've even done some strawman designs in RadioMobile to test the feasibility. But those areas (hill towns) have houses, not to mention CAIs (on fiber) and thus obvious AP sites, higher than 75m HAAT. So the height rules are a real problem in both directions. I read your FCC posting and saw the term receive only. It also talked about moving towers below the 75m limit, and didn't directly address subscribers. But the Fixed rules apply to subscriber sites too. A WISP could often beam uphill, rather than downhill, if it were only the towers, but Fixed APs will more often talk to Fixed subscribers than to personal/portable ones. Especially when the available channels are below Ch. 21. So it's a real technical/regulatory issue I'm raising. Does anyone else here think I'm being insulting? Have I made the question clear? Or is Jack just being overly defensive? --- On Thu, 10/14/10, Josh Luthman j...@imaginenetworksllc.com wrote: From: Josh Luthman j...@imaginenetworksllc.com Subject: Re: [WISPA] WISPA Ex Parte Filing from yesterday To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Date: Thursday, October 14, 2010, 8:26 PM Maybe explain what it means to WISPs?
