Re: [WISPA] Need some quick trango help
Hi, Just curious. Have you done the SU POWERLEVELING command on the AP?

Schafer Sent: Friday, June 12, 2009 11:02 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Need some quick trango help Hi All, Got a strange one here. I have a 5830 AP with 4 customers on it. 3 have no complaints, 1 gets 300 to 400k downloads and 1000 to 3000 uploads. All links are less than one mile and are within 1/4 mile of each other. Two are right across the street from each other. Yesterday we had a few strange things happen so I went hunting for the cause. While looking I noticed customer B was my top bandwidth user and he stayed there for at least 30 minutes. As a part of trying to get customer A working better I thought I'd try turning off customer B (across the street and on the same AP as customer A). I shut down customer B (oh yeah, all CPE are Fox SE 5800) and ran a speed test at customer A. Now they got 6000 down and 5000 up. Turn customer B back on and customer A went back down to unusable service. Here's the strange part, I can run the same speed test at customer B and they get good speeds all of the time. 8000 to 9000 down, 7000 to 8000 up. Theoretical max on the Trango system. So I don't think that they are causing this problem due to steady usage. The only thing that's popping out in my mind is that customer B has a newer radio (it was replaced last year or so). Could this somehow be a firmware issue? Neither customer has a programmed preference over the other one at the AP level. The other two customers on the AP haven't called with problems. If anyone can call me with some advice this am I'd sure appreciate it. 509.988.0260 Customer A (the nearly dead one) has a big project due this afternoon and I'm at a loss so far.

[WISPA] Tranzeo TR-SL9 Performs Worse than TR-902s in NLOS Conditions
Dear WISPA Friends, We've been testing the latest Tranzeo TR-SL9 radios and are seeing some weird issues. In line of sight conditions, the radio performs superbly. But when using these same radios in near line of sight conditions, they perform 10-20 dBi worse than the equivalent TR-902 radio with comparable gain antenna. We are using the latest firmware load. If you have see this problem, have you been able to solve it? Kelly Shaw Kinex Telecom WISPA Wants You!

[WISPA] Remote Backup Services
I've been selling a remote backup service to my wireless customers using a product called Remote-Back (www.remote-backup.com). It is rather pricey and I'm wondering what the rest of you may be using? This is a very easy way to up-sell our customers and generate some extra revenue. The main selling point is that as wireless ISPs, we can offer high speed UPLOADS as well as downloads. Our DSL competitors have a hard time doing this.

[WISPA] Outsource 24 Hour Technical Support for HotSpot
We have installed a set of HotSpots for a local Hotel. They are looking to us to provide 24 hour technical support for their clients on an as-needed basis. Since we are a small shop and I have no desire to answer calls at all hours in the morning, we are looking to see if there is a way we can outsource these calls.

[WISPA] OTARD and Wireless Broadband
Folks, http://wireless.fcc.gov/siting/otard.html I just heard about a local Virginia WISP who used the OTARD rule to site a tower. Has anyone else used this ruling to apply to Wireless Broadband where a tower is placed on a property owner's land and then service offered to the property owner on a secondary basis? I see various writeups on the topic on the 'net, but can't find one that specifically differentiates between the siting of an antenna versus a tower with and antenna on it.

We also are not listed in any Real Time Blacklists, yet they still have us blocked. Emails to their service go unanswered. One reponse they gave to one of our customers was that they were using an improper reverse DNS entry. Yet, their forward and reverse DNS entries match and are self explanatory.

Folks, I'm looking for a good free-standing tower. I need to be able to choose between 150' and 190' and it needs to be able to handle your typical WISP needs.
