[WISPA] TV White Space
I was looking at the available channels in my area and realized that there are not many that can be used easily. There are a lot of operators that are competing here that will possibly want to use them also. My question is what will be the registration process to acquire this channel space? I have not seen any talk about it but with the very limited space available there has to be some type of registration/licensing. Also are there any rules on usage? I would hate for someone to register on the best channels and then not actually use them. WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Cogent in St. Louis
We have had very good luck with Cogents reliability. Now as for peers thats a different story. I will tell you that if Level 3 has two routes to you, one across Cogent and one across a dialup link (or anything else) they will send all traffic across the other link. You can see this on their looking glass with their local preference settings. Cogent burned a lot of people in the past with peering arrangements and it still shows.

Re: [WISPA] gotta love USF!!!!
My big problem with the USF fund is that it was designed to help recover the cost to serve rural communities. If this is the case then why does my rural community not have the same services as the metro ones. I live in an Embarq served area. They offer Metro E types of service in most all of their metro areas but it is not available in my rural area. Now I know the first response is that requires fiber, well my building has fiber in it for over 3 years now. It sits dark not being used. They wont sell me any service that uses it without an enormous price tag. Now if USF is subsidizing them then every community, regardless of size, should have access to the same types of service for the same cost right?

[WISPA] Motorola Prizm Software
I am designing a implementation for the Motorola Prizm software in a distributed network. I am trying to get some information and most of what I am receiving is contradicting. I am wanting multiple PRIZM/BAM servers located at different PoPs in our network. These need to be redundant to allow for fail-over capabilities. I plan on having the license server installed in our main data center. Accord to Motorola the software is capable of doing this. The problem seems to be with the data base the Prizm servers use. One person told me that they all have to sue the same database. This would defeat the purpose of having different Prizm server. Another told me that each Prizm can have its own database and we can setup replication between the databases. Has anyone done an installation of this nature before? I have some questions and ideas I would like to discuss. Any help or expertise is appreciated. Jory Privett Partnership Broadband, Inc. 940.683.5797 WISPA Wants You!

Is CWLABs an authorized Frequency Coordinator, such as Comsearch or Micronet? If we paid you, what would you be doing apposed to us just getting the quote from Comsearch? The reason I'm asking is that... $3000 is fine when licensing Link by Link individually. But we are planning on doing the FCC application for 5 links at the single tower site, to minimize our Licensing costs. I'm aware of what the FCC and Comsearch would charge for this. Are you able to offer similar cost saving? I'm getting really close to being ready to place my orders and License apps. Let me explain what I'm thinking... As much as I like the Dragon wave product, I'm likely going to order 2 Trango for 18Ghz, tommorrow. The reason is that they are honoring an excellent RoadShow promotion in Early November, where they are giving us 300mb for the 100mbps price. But I was still planning on buying two 11Ghz Dragon waves, provided I can get the licenses for my intended sites. (hard to tell, Clearwire has been going crazy buying licenses on my roofs). So what is your role in the Licensing process, if we order through you, and what price discounts can be extended for multi-link sites? And are your fees due, if the Freq Cordination prevents availabilty of a license? Please advise. Tom DeReggi RapidDSL & Wireless, Inc IntAirNet- Fixed Wireless Broadband WISPA Wants You!

In fact, this whole thread started with the concept that you shouldn't have to pay $250/meg. First of all, we are only built out in major cities, so we don't have a network near you. However, cheaper bandwidth shouldn't be too far away. I know there are plenty of wireless companies operating in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and it looks like you are about 40 miles outside of Fort Worth. Have you talked to another wireless company about bandwidth? I believe BelWave is in Fort Worth and their network may include parts of North West Fort Worth making the shot even less than 40 miles. I happened to ask offlist for some information on the closest tower Jory has to Fort Worth. Using that information I came up with the attached backhaul figured using 5800Mhz. The other side of the shot is the D.R. Horton Tower, which I would think cheaper bandwidth would be available. It would also appear that plenty of other buildings should be accessible. -Matt ** Join us at the WISPA Reception at 6:30 PM on October the 16th 2007 at ISPCON ** ** ISPCON Fall 2007 - October 16-18 - San Jose, CA www.ispcon.com ** ** THE INTERNET INDUSTRY EVENT ** ** FREE Exhibits and Events Pass available until August 31 ** ** Use Customer Code WSEMF7 when you register online at http://www.ispcon.com/register.php ** WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Feds OK fee for priority Web traffic
Ok so I pay you the extra to guarantee a certain minimum latency. I if I am connecting to a server on another network how will you provide that?

I expect that 99% of the web traffic will continue exactly as it is The whole point of this is that customers are more and more demanding QoS guarantees that are almost impossible to produce without being able to charge more for them, and for some applications are required. I'll give you an example VoIP. In order for it to work well, VoIP packets need to be given priority. Unfortunately if you don't charge extra for this priority traffic, then a certain segment of your customer base will figure out how to tag *all* of their packets for priority use. Gaming would be another example. During peak usage times, gamers suffer since latency goes up slightly just because links are in use. If the gamer (or a large gaming server) wants to pay extra for a latency guarantee (delivered by prioritizing packets ahead of others), then so be it. It is extremely costly to provide a network which will provide *at all times* extremely low latency and jitter for *all* traffic. What most providers want to be able to do is to say to customers, "if a little added jitter and latency during peak times is unacceptable, then pay us extra for that traffic and we will guarantee that it will be put at the first of the line. If you don't pay us extra, your experience will continue to be about what it is today". -forrest ** Join us at the WISPA Reception at 6:30 PM on October the 16th 2007 at ISPCON ** ** ISPCON Fall 2007 - October 16-18 - San Jose, CA www.ispcon.com ** ** THE INTERNET INDUSTRY EVENT ** ** FREE Exhibits and Events Pass available until August 31 ** ** Use Customer Code WSEMF7 when you register online at http://www.ispcon.com/register.php ** WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Feds OK fee for priority Web traffic
Be careful what you wish for. What happens when your upstream say that your traffic goes to the bottom of queue unless you pay an extra $x,xxx.xx per moth? Will that make your customers happy? Can you afford an extra charge to make sure that your address space is in the fast lane? The biggest problem I see here is that I buy service from provider A who is peering with provider B. I pay for the super fast connection from provider A because they are my upstream. I am trying to access a server on provider B. Provider A is not on the fast lane with provider B because they did not want to pay the extra charge. So in the long run my paying provider A for faster access is a waste for anything not on their network. Now imagine this scenario if your traffic crosses 6 different networks to get to its final designation. I see companies like Google having a cow and buying the entire internet so they can control access from end to end. They have already threatened to do this.

Re: [WISPA] DIY Server Questions
You can get racks from lots of places. I would check with someplace local
since shipping them can get expensive. For rackmount cases any good PC parts
retailer should have them from 1U up to match any configuration you might
want. I would suggest getting something with a common power supply. Some
of the smaller units have custom ones that are not readily available if it
dies.
I run all of my server on the AMD platform and have for over 7 years now. I
still have a couple of my original servers in production and they still
perform well for their job. Compared against the Intel they perform just
as well and are much cheaper. For Disk drives I would suggest Seagate or
Western Digital, I am not a fan of anything else out there. Asus makes a
good product but so does Gigabyte, MSI, and any other main stream
manufacturer.
For the OS I would run Debian. It is very flexible and secure and has lots
of packages available. It is simple to install BIND for DNS, FreeRadius
for AAA, Freeside for billing, and Cacti for monitoring/graphing and all of
the background apps that are required. FreeBSD and Fedora are also very
popular.

Hi Gang!
I'm finally, at long last building my Network Operations Center
and would love to hear recommendations from the brave
souls out there that build their own hardware.
I'm looking for recommendations for motherboards,
rack-mount case vendors, Rack vendors, etc.
I must admit I have a bias against Intel-based systems,
but would defer to experience supporting an Intel platform.
I will in every instance be running on flavor or another of Linux
for all my OS needs, should that have a bearing on the response.
My previous experience favors ASUS motherboards, and
good name-brand memory devices. I have lost faith in most
of the Disc Drive makers, however Shugart's 5 year warranty
is tempting me in their direction.
Any thoughts, comments, etc are welcomed.
If appropriate, you may contact me of list.

Nobody is proposing that customers should be disposed of "easily". We fight to obtain customers and we fight to keep them but disposing of a customer who is continually draining your resources or impacting the service that you deliver to others is a wise business decision, assuming that their complaints are not justified by your (not you personally George - I mean business owners collectively) failure to deliver what you told them to expect in terms of service. Complaints are caused by: 1. Mis-set expectations. As a WISP it's easy to promise more throughput than you can deliver either because you don't know how much throughput you are actually capable of delivering (very common in the WISP industy), or 2. Intentionally mis-leading customers about the throughput that they could expect to receive (not very common in the WISP industry), or 3. Poor system design or high interference levels (or the behavior of other mis-behaving customers) causing customer slowdowns that you did not or could not anticipate. 4. The small 1 percent or 2 percent of customers who "live to complain". These folks who believe that it is their mission in life to complain loudly, widely and continually to any and everyone within listening distance (in person, on the phone, on the Internet, etc) are the real culprits who, I believe, you should politely "invite" to find another service provider. Complaint causes number 1 through 3 above should be listened to respectfully and addressed promptly, correctly and thoroughly. But that's just my opinion... jack David E. Smith wrote: George Rogato wrote: Customers are hard to come by to dispose of them so easily. I wonder, I wonder what it is that is causing the customer to complain? I'll agree with the principle of this statement, that customers often have a legitimate reason for their complaints. Some folks, however, simply love the sound of their own voices. :) For us, the biggest problem is file-sharing software. If two or three customers are running Kazaa or Limewire or whatever it is the cool kids are using these days to download music and movies of questionable provenance, the other thirty folks on that tower will complain. Those folks have a legitimate beef, and that's not a problem. We look at the tower, see who's doing what, and make the problem go away (usually by temporarily disconnecting the customer running the P2P software). That's where the problems really start. That guy whose connection is spitting out about 100 packets per second on Limewire? He didn't read the contract, didn't listen to our installers (who are instructed to remind customers this kind of software is a no-no, and to explain in gentle non-technical terms why this is so), and it couldn't possibly be my little baby boy why he's a perfect angel (no he's not, he's a teenager, you remember what you were like when you were fifteen?). Usually, once is all it takes, but we do have an informal "three strikes" policy - if you continually annoy us (and all the other subscribers in your area) eventually we will ask you to find another ISP.

Re: [WISPA] Nstreme2 Link & Pacwireless
I have been doing some research and these seem great, almost. The main problem I have is power where it needs to be. If I could get 120v then I could easily use one of these units or a standard PC. Most of my sights are on water towers so there is no electricity at the top of them and the radio ahs to be feed with PoE. I have tried putting the radios lower and using LMR cableis to the antennas but have had bad experiences with that in the past. Jory Privett WCCS - Original Message - From: "David E.

Does anyone have any recomendations/experinces with any in particular? Do they support the MikroTik RouterOS? Just get something fanless and low-power, and you're good. I usually suggest "fanless" because you can get the whole No Moving Parts assembly, which means fewer things that can break; the benefit of that should be obvious :) Low-power is optional, but usually goes along with fanless, because otherwise your computer could cook itself. The biggest downside is probably the "some assembly required" bit - you're basically buying all the parts for a small desktop computer, and assembling them yourself. There's a bit of learning curve even if you've worked with desktop PCs before (those power supplies especially are tiny, and can be annoying to work with). Your first system will probably take an hour or two to assemble. It will be a bit bigger than a Routerboard 500 - probably six inches square, two or three inches tall. And you'll need "real" power, as you can't usually run these with POE. RouterOS is available for "standard" x86 hardware, which most mini-ITX boards would be. You may also want to look at the new Soekris 5501. I haven't tested RouterOS on it, but Soekris is standard x86 hardware, so problems are pretty unlikely. It's a single-board unit, so you don't have to assemble anything; you'll be getting a bit less performance at about the same price, but you don't have to spend an hour putting bits together. mini-box.com has a good selection of bits and pieces; I've bought from them before and they took good care of me.

Re: [WISPA] Fw: Update on T1 Mobile Wireless Service
Oh I know better than to send anyone money and so far they haven't asked for any. they just wanted to know if I would sign up to be a reseller. I have been contacted by two different people about it and they didn't know each other. It sounds like the whole system works on an Amway or MaryKay type system. Top level gets commission of the lower guys and on down the food chain. The more people you sign up the more "potential" you have to get rich quick. I was just wondering if anyone else was being contacted by these guys. From what I can tell they are betting on the release of the TV whitespace or 700MHz channels.

The next tower we hang that needs the extra bandwidth will have one of these dishes hanging on them: http://www.pacwireless.com/products/HDDA5W.shtml I don't think you need SR5 radios to make a 6.5kilometer (4.0 miles?) link. Even with an 18db Atheros CM9 you ought to achieve a 20Mbps link and be ten times more reliable and the sensitivity of a SR5 has always been - - -well - - - unstable in my use of them whereas the CM9 has been almost bullet proof. I have given up on the SR5 because they always seem to get popped by EMP. (I know I just opened up a can of worms) I would suggest using a different platform to (other than a RB532A) achieve speeds greater than 20Mbps if through put is critical. There are a number of SBC out there to be had - - or even a nice x86 would produce many times that speed running MikroTik. Using the later - - you could easily push 50/600Mbps on a single motherboard with two cards running Nstream along with connection tracking - - which you will miss if it ain't turned on.

I am setting up several new Hotspots using Mikrotik. The network has 3 APs and internet access through a single Mikrotik router: Mikrotik Router <-> 3x Mikrotik AP <-> Clients I want to configure the Hotspot controller on the router and not on the individual APs. I have everything setup and working with just one little problem. When the Hotspot is active I can not access the APs from outside the router. I have tested my addressing and routing and everything works when the Hotspot is disabled. I even set the APs to function on a different subnet and made sure that I can communicate with them and that works. Turn on the Hotspot and I lose connectivity. Is there a way to setup a sub interface and only have the hotspot use it and all other address space use the main interface? Any other ideas from you Mikrotik Pros??

Re: [WISPA] The Next Big Thing in Wireless
Sounds like a great idea. I only have one issue from what I read here, $500 per link seems high. Most ISPs complain about the $250 they pay now for CPEs. Jory Privett WCCS - Original Message - From: "michael mulcay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2007 4:23 PM Subject: [WISPA] The Next Big Thing in Wireless Guys, As we wireless operators know, the costs of licensed networks (equipment, antennas and licensing) makes providing services to the majority of subscribers prohibitively expensive, and the cost at auction for spectrum (for WiMax and 4G products) is beyond the reach of most of us. To overcome these problems, two years ago Wireless Strategies began research into ways to use new technologies -- WiMAX and smart antennas -- to reuse side lobe radiation around sites of point-to-point 4GHz and 6GHz microwave links under the present FCC rules and without causing additional interference. Our finding is that networks can be designed to operate with smart antennas with distributed radiators and that the new paths can be concurrently coordinated, under existing FCC rules and without causing additional interference. We believe that concurrent coordination will be "The Next Big Thing in Wireless," leveling the playing field by making it possible for WISPs to obtain multipurpose licensed spectrum at pennies on the dollar compared to obtaining it at auction. By making use of the formerly wasted side lobe radiation of 4GHz and 6GHz paths, WISPs will be able to use IEEE 802.16-based (WiMAX) equipment with small antennas to provide licensed broadband services to hundreds of additional subscribers at a provisioning cost of only about $500 per link. We appreciate that some members of the industry may initially perceive any change to the status quo as a threat, but we believe that concurrent coordination will provide extraordinary benefits to the entire industry, especially WISPs. Due to the potential for unprecedented industry-wide changes from the use of antennas with distributed radiators to provide multiple-path low-cost broadband services under the existing FCC rules, Wireless Strategies decided to remove any uncertainty for investors and service providers by, on February 23, 2007, filing with the Federal Communications Commission, a Request for a Declaratory Ruling on Compliance of Fixed Microwave Antennas Having Distributed Radiating Elements. However, to date, the FCC has taken no action. We believe that emails of support from the WISP community can help speed up the process, by encouraging the FCC to either issue the requested declaratory ruling or to issue a Public Notice for industry comment. Therefore, if you would like a copy of our FCC filing and/or information about the new concept of concurrent coordination, please contact me at Wireless Strategies 831-659-5618 or [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional information you can also visit our web site at www.wirelessstrategies.net.

Re: [WISPA] CPI suing FCC to get at real state of broadbandcompetitionin the US
I do not think Peters argument was that the data should be shared. I think he is against that as much as anyone. BUT what needs to happen is that someone needs to check and verify the data that is collected. The FCC does no review of what is submitted. A ILEC could have on DSL line in a zip code and therefore claim that broadband is available for the entire area. This is the kind of thing that needs to be checked and verified.

Peter, how can you possibly support the idea that it is ok for confidential data to be gathered and then shared because the ILECs want it shared? The FCC is not withholding this information to be annoying or secretive. They are doing so because confidentiality was assured when the data was gathered.

Re: [WISPA] Save the Internet (Net Neutrality)
Very powerful statement!!!

When someone sells 1 mbps of speed, who said that meant they are selling the customer continuous 1 mbps for what ever use they want? And just because we sell them a 1 mbps last mile, who says that we are selling them that capacity accross our backbone network? Sounds like legislators or reading maketing advertisements instead of acceptable use policies and fine print of broadband contracts. When I sell 1 mbps to a resident, I in no way represent I am selling the subscriber 1 mbps of capacity. I'm selling him that speed. There is a nig difference. If they want that guaranteed capacity, they can buy it from me per bit, or pay for a CIR plan that guarantees that capacity. Also, content providers practice limiting individual connections' (end user's) speed to their content servers. Why should they have the right to limit our consumer's speed? They argue to protect their servers and Internet connections. How is that any different for an ISP to limit connections to their end users, to protect their Internet connections. Who really owns the Internet connections to consumers? Is it the consumer or the ISP? Last time I checked its the ISP that holds the long term loan covering the cost of that infrastructure, not the subscriber. If the end user cancels, its the ISP that is left covering the bill. I argue it is the ISP that owns that connection, and should be able to do what ever they want with their connection. There is a big difference controling traffic of your users, versus blocking traffic from other Broadband providers. Net Neutrality should address one topic and one topic only, prevent one Broadband provider from blocking traffic from another broadband provider in an attempt to harm the other Broadband provider or have a competitive advantage over that other Broadband provider, by leveraging its size and share of the market. There needs to be free non-discriminary exchange of data between Broadband providers, so that competitions can be abundant and consumers have choice, and can select based on the accomplishments and merit added by those providers. Content Providers nor Consumers have the right to control where and who they send data to, in my opinion. Its no different than a property owner determining who their tenants can and can not have access to, and who can and can not bring cable on to their property. VOIP providers most likely won't share my view, as they want a free ride. However, I beleive VOIP providers would not be harmfully effected by this, as all it would mean is that they must make partnerships with ISPs. There are 7000 ISPs out there ready to accept partnerships. Whats wrong with that. UNfortuneately, the idea that a VOIP content provider should ahve free reign to sell to anyone, such as through best Buy and Circuit cities, regardless of which ISP used, is a flawed model for competition. The reason is that the most popular and largest VOIP providers will be the one that gets the deal with Circuit Cities and Best Buys, and the industry will get lopsided, almost like a market driven self created monopoly. Forcing VOIP providers to make deals with ISPs, will create the opportunity for more different VOIP providers to be successfull and have a peice of the pie. It will also guaranteee that consumers can't as easilly be blindsided by misrepresenting marketing material. It will guarantee that VOIP has a better chance to survuve will good QOS because attention will be given by the broadband provider to make sure it is there. in another view, maybe ethically, its the content providers that should get a free ride. And its the subscribers that should be getting billed. But we all know, the uproar that will happen when we try and charge the consumer. The truth is the consumer has such a gross misunderstanding of how the industry works and what it is they have bought when subscribing to a broadband service, its almost impossible to change the perception at this point. We owe that to the huge marketing efforts of Cable and ILECs :-( So its not about ethics anymore. Its about survival, and how to make it work. And that most likely means charging content providers, whether its right or not. But one thing I can tell you for sure, is its not the Broadband provider taht should pay for it. Nobody should be able to force me to mold the product that I sell into something other than what I want to sell. Its like going to a retial store and the governemnt forcing the owner to only be allowed to sell cashmere instead of cotton, but requiring them to sell it at the same cost as the cotton, regardless of the fact that the cashmere has a higher cost than the

FCC Chairman Kevin Martin has not acted on the vacant frequencies matter. By Paul Sakuma, AP File Two recently introduced Senate bills would require the Federal Communications Commission to issue rules to accommodate the unlicensed services within six months. The measures, which are garnering bipartisan support, are likely to be discussed at a Senate Commerce Committee hearing on Tuesday. Yet, they're opposed by TV broadcasters that fear the services would disrupt the nation's transition to digital television. A bill by Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, tries to ensure that broadcasters are protected from interference. A similar bill by Sen. George Allen, R-Va., is co-sponsored by Sens. John Sununu, R-N.H., John Kerry, D-Mass., and Barbara Boxer, D-Calif. Rep. Jay Inslee, D-Wash., plans a similar measure in the House. The bills could be added to telecom reform this year. Thousands of providers use antennas and free, unlicensed spectrum to deliver broadband to sparsely populated rural regions that would be too costly to serve with wires. But gearmakers such as Intel are drooling at the prospect of using TV airwaves, which are in low-frequency bands that allow signals to travel farther and to better penetrate buildings and foliage. That means networks could be built with fewer antennas at a fraction of what systems cost now. Lower expenses could entice wireless providers to expand service. "It would allow broadband services in many rural areas," says Margie Dickman, senior attorney, Intel government affairs. At the end of last year, 24% of adult rural Americans used broadband at home, vs. 39% of those in urban and suburban areas, says the Pew Internet & American Life Project. In 2004, the FCC under then-chairman Michael Powell proposed that wireless services be permitted to operate in the TV band as long as they don't disrupt TV stations. But current Chairman Kevin Martin has not acted on the matter out of concerns that the services would disrupt broadcasters as they shuffle channels in the switch to digital. By Feb. 17, 2009, broadcasters must return their analog channels to the government. "Our concern is that we don't have people go home (on Feb. 18, 2009), turn on the TV and it not work because somebody turned on a wireless unlicensed device," says Dennis Wharton, spokesman for the National Association of Broadcasters. But Intel's Peter Pitsch says wireless providers would use smart transmitters that steer clear

If you can not meet the SLA for any reason give him a credit per day ($1000/30days) for service.

Title: Message Legislation Championed by Rep. King Leads to Unprecedented Technology Investment New Technologies, Strengthened Investment Flowing into State; High-Speed Internet on its Way to 71 Small Texas Communities Austin City leaders from across Texas converged on Austin on February 20th to celebrate the coming of high-speed Internet technology to their communities, a benefit of Senate Bill 5 which Rep. Phil King sponsored in 2005. Modern technology is vital to our communities, King said. Broadband, or high-speed Internet service, in particular, helps us educate our young people, it helps our businesses compete in the 21st century economy, and it keeps us in touch with the world. As a result of the bill, 71 Texas communities, most of them small and in rural areas, are slated to receive high-speed Internet technology by the end of the year. When the technology roll-out is completed, every switching location served by AT&T, the states largest communications company, will be capable of delivering broadband service. In the Legislature, we are constantly working to find ways to increase investment in our communities, King said. This is really an unprecedented level of high-speed Internet technology, and having this happen makes our hard work on Senate Bill 5 well worth the effort. Texans are seeing other significant benefits as a result of the bipartisan legislation. In Keller, cable rates have dropped significantly as a result of increased competition from a new market entrant. TXU, a major electric delivery company, has announced a $150 million infrastructure upgrade that will include the largest deployment of broadband over power line (BPL) technology in the nation. When TXUs upgrade is complete, BPL will be available to more than 2 million homes and business in North Texas. Senate Bill 5, hailed nationally for its groundbreaking provisions to open up the cable television market to greater competition, has lately been the subject of wide praise for is impact on technology investment in Texas. On Monday, Senate Bill 5 was recognized by the Internet Innovation Alliance (IIA) for creating a public policy environment that encourages greater technology investment, competition and consumer choice. Also recently, the Americans for Prosperity (AFP) Foundation named King a Defender of the American Dream and gave his record in the legislature a grade of A. The organization supports public policies built on the principles of entrepreneurship and fiscal and regulatory restraint. Im proud of the recognition of the hard work of the Texas Legislature, King said. But what is most important is what that work does for the people we represent. With this bill, we have helped bring new investment dollars to Texas and we are bringing new technologies and choices to consumers. ### -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/

Re: [WISPA] Orthogon Spectra
No the Lite will always be half of the full version. If the Spectra will do 132M then the lite will only do 66M. Same with the Gemini and the Gemini Lite Jory Privett WCCS - Original Message - From: Paul Hendry To: 'WISPA General List' Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 2:05 PM Subject: RE: [WISPA] Orthogon Spectra So that’s 297.63Mbps regardless of the type of traffic? The thing I wasn’t sure about was exactly what the difference between Spectra and Lite where. Is it purely that the lite can only achieve 150Mbps? If for example you can only achieve 100Mbps with the Spectra would you also get 100Mbps if you used the Lite on the same link?

Re: [WISPA] Ethernet based authentication
I do not really understand what you are trying to accomplish but I do PPPoE for my network. I have used it in a few other cases. It is fairly easy to setup and should not limit anything on a windows network. Call me if I can be of help Jory Privett WCCS 940.683.5797 - Original Message - From: "John Scrivner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2005 9:54 AM Subject: [WISPA] Ethernet based authentication Anyone out there have experience with PPPoE?. I have a client who is a local government entity. They have people who have abused their Internet connection in the past. They restrict who has Internet access and when it can be used. One of our techs unknowingly circumvented protocol by helping an employee learn how to connect his personal laptop to the hardwired Ethernet network. Now the government entity is highly peeved at me. They want a complete report on the incident and a plan for how I will prevent people from doing this in the future at all locations. I am thinking we can use PPPoE to force all users even on the hardwired network to authenticate in order to get on the Internet. What are your thoughts? What will this break on an internal network that may be doing other things? Could an internal Windows network still function normally while the computer is not authenticated for Internet access? I have never done PPPoE and need a little guidance from those of you who have.
