Re: [WISPA] Insurance
Find a broker that deals with CNA. They are still in the ISP business. Use 2 separate classifications. One is being an ISP and the second is satellite installer. Most insurance CO's have no clue what a WISP is to this day and will run for the hills when you describe your business. They all know what an ISP is and have also been offering policies for sat. installers for years. Since all you are doing on an install is mounting an antenna and radio, it is no different than mounting a Sat. dish so coverage is not an issue. Make sure you break out all $$ that are charged for the installs and keep them separate in your books, as in most states, you will be billed for that classification based on gross revenue . It should keep your costs down Good luck. D. Ryan Spott wrote: Thanks board members. I feel that this sort of service set will help WISPA members quite a bit. ryan D.

If they were there first, I would do my best to cooperate with them and coordinate channels and when You fire something up for the first time, You need to call and ask if it is causing any problems. In most cases, this goodwill goes a long way in letting them know You are a professional and NOT an idiot that worked at Wendy's drive thru taking orders yesterday, and now I are a WISP the next.. It seems as though I find another AP every other day that some moron threw up with a 1 watt amp and 15dBi omni hooked to their cable connection, and they are trying to sell it. I will also mention that sometimes no amount of goodwill seems to work, and while You may be a professional, Your competitors may not be?. If You have to switch channels on a daily basis to avoid interference?, then You need to go back to the drawing board and re-design Your system to be better than theirs.This DOESN'T mean that You should do anything illegal, just make a better network than theirs. If anything, THEY should be the ones having to switch around if they are non cooperative. I don't know why it is, but some people seem to think that there isn't enough customers to go around for everyone, when there really is. We have cable, DSL and 2 other WISP's besides myself, and it seems that none of us have a hard time signing up new customers. When I throw up another PoP, I scan to see what channels are in use, and how I can best avoid their systems.

These radios do a consistant 15Mb using 2.4Ghz and I had no idea how bad they would stand on the spectrum to achieve that.

When You combine the assembly required for all the WRAP boards, buying the pigtails, and all of the other good stuff that goes along with being a MT shop, learning the management GUI etc., You could be up and running in no time with a M0n0wall box and gear shipped directly from the OEM's all ready assembled and ready to go. And M0n0wall is very easy compared to MT, and if You were so inclined, You could use the default settings and have a fairly decent network with an old P III and 512M of RAM, which is MUCH cheaper than any MT box. Granted, MT has a few more features, but the average WISP doesn't need half the stuff that is in there.

Tom DeReggi RapidDSL Wireless, Inc IntAirNet- Fixed Wireless Broadband As an insurance agent for the last 16 years in the state of PA(Besides running a WISP too for the last 5 years), I can tell You that there are some negatives to just Not mentioning the fact that it has a bucket on it. The first one is that when You sign the insurance application(This info. only applies to the state of PA where I am licensed, keep in mind the every state has different insurance laws, but almost ALL of them adopted the laws from the state of NY, as they were one of the first to actually clamp down and adopt them, and this is what PA uses), there is a paragraph that says all of the information You have submitted to the insurance CO is correct and You then sign underneath it. It is a great possibility that by omitting the fact that Your van had a bucket on it, the CO could deny Your claim based on the fact that You chose to omit the information about the bucket on purpose, as You knew this would stop You from securing coverage?. While I do understand that securing the proper insurance is becoming expensive, maybe even out of hand?, I do not want to see You or any other small CO lose everything buy trying to cut corners and get around something by being dishonest?. Almost all insurance have something called Good faith agreements in them. This Good Faith agreement is based on upon the fact that both You and the insurance CO have been up front and honest with each other about what coverages You are receiving from the CO and what type of risk the CO is actually insuring. They fulfill their half by giving You a policy that specificly states what they will and will not pay for, and You fulfill Your responsibility by filling out the application with all of Your information so that the insurance CO can decide what to charge You based upon the information You provided them. If You lie, or as the politicly correct term used is Omit some vital information that would stop the CO from issuing insurance, then the contract is broken by You right up front, and this fact alone could cause You some grave financial harm if You employee tears down some fiber and/or phone lines.

Re: [WISPA] Insurance for use of bucket truck or lift for installs.
Tom, I do share some of same views that You have. I just thought it would be a good idea to present the pros and cons of omitting information. There are 2 types of insurance customers it seems?. The first one is like Yourself. You buy the insurance because You have to, and the thought of using it doesn't really cross Your mind for all the reasons You mentioned below. If it were possible, I am sure that insurance CO's would love to find a way to discern the quality customers from the irresponsible ones, and charge lower rates based on this fact, and the fact that the bucket is only used once a month?. That sad part is there is no real way to do this, as insurance is based on the law of large #'s, and in order for it to work, everyone must be lumped together in one big pool(for lack of other words?). Your customer profile is fairly common though. I respect the fact that when the truck is in the field, only responsible operators like Yourself will be operating the bucket, being extra cautious as to whats going on around You and whats happening when the boom is moving etc. This is the way it should be at all times. Now lets move on to the second type of customer(The most uncommon, believe it or not?). This person usually does everything they can to cut corners, not only with work ethics and install qualities but also with their level of responsibilties in the day to day operation of their business. This customer will hire the cheapest employee that will work for them, skimp on safety and vehicle maintainence, owe $$ to most of the vendors he or she does business with and they will usually try and call their employees Sub-contractors, trying to avoid paying taxes and workmans compensation to make more $$(This is really an entirely different topic, but I am just using this as an example?). This risk taking carries over to things such as the safe use of a bucket truck. If You remember, I mentioned that the people that work for this person are really only there because they can not find a job anywhere else, and our business owner in question hires them because it is cheap labor. The day comes when the bucket truck is needed for an install, and our employee gets behind the wheel to do the job(Keep in mind that our employee was up half the night boozing with his/her friends, and just found it their spouse is messing with the neighbor). When at the job site, this employee will not have very good safety principles, and will do something really dumb like tear the service head for the electric off the wall of the house and tear down the cable CO's fiber line, along with the local Telco's phone systems. The reason I am mentioning all this is because for the most part, 10% of all insurance customers file 90% of the claims for reasons mentioned above. This same customer will also use their insurance policy as a maintainence contract, and try to get the insurance CO to pay for things that You or I would simply say, OK, this happened, but I will just fix it myself, as it was my fault in the first place. I dropped a 4ft piece of pipe off of the roof last year and it hit the only car parked on the entire street. It was an older car that already had 4000 dents and peeling paint, but the damage to the fender was $430. I just paid it, because it was stupidity in the first place, and I didn't want my rates to go up?. Now, the other side of this: We have an incidence where an individual needed new tires for inspection, so using their really smart brain, they drove it home from the mechanic that failed it, and slashed all the tires themselves. The insurance CO only paid the prorated amount, as the tires were worn out in the first place, so this enterprising individual got pissed, and went and got a set of tires(That didn't match) from the local junk yard that had been slashed in a previous crime, had them mounted on the rims for the van, and then tried to claim a 2nd time that his tires had been vandalized again. I guess You all figured out that this moron is now in jail for insurance fraud?(For every one that is caught, 10 get away with it) The reason I am mentioning all of this is that I am trying to show all of You why and how Your insurance rates have been steadily rising over the last few years. The bad thing is that even though I am an agent, I still pay the same rates that everyone else pays. I also do not have a bucket truck, as I find them useless for over 99% of all the installs I do(I am sure there are some of us who would be lost without one?), and I can not justify the costs for a device that will sit around most of the time. Keep in mind that no matter who operates that bucket truck, and how careful they are, it only takes a split second for something bad to happen, and if that claim is not insured (Or the CO denys it) and it is a large loss, The person without the needed coverage will be the one getting screwed. It really could mean the difference

Tom, Wrong answer about the business liability insurance :-) . In most states, the insurance covers ANYTHING that arises due to the vehicle or its use. For instance, in PA, if You close the van door on Your hand(even if the vehicle is parked and not moving) and break it, Your auto insurance has to pay the medical bills. If the operator of the bucket truck sends it through the roof of the house they are working on, then the property damage coverage of Your auto policy(primary) kicks in and pays for the roof. There is a chance that Your business insurance(GL or general liability) policy would cover You on a secondary basis if the coverage on the auto policy was not enough and You were sued for the difference?(Varies by state). The legal term for this is called the proximate cause of the accident or problem, and since the bucket was attached to the van, the auto policy will cover it. This is why Your insurance CO is pitching a fit about the bucket. Here is some more insurance trivia that all of You should be aware of, as I for one hate surprises. Did You know that if at the end of Your employees shift, You ask that person to drop off a check, contract, pick up a part at radio shack etc. and they are involved in an accident, You are going to be sued right along with Your employee and their (employee's)private auto insurer will more than likely deny the claim, as most personal lines policies do not cover any type of business use, period. The idea here is that the accident in question would have never occured if You had not asked the employee to run an errand for You. We also have some of us business owners that do not own any private vehicles. If everything You own is insured commercially?, Do Not EVER rent a vehicle unless Your Business auto policy has drive other car coverage, because if it doesn't?, You will be paying the bill for the accident, as most commercial auto policies only cover the vehicles listed on it, and if it 'aint there?, It 'aint covered. :-( -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/

Even if you have 'vehicle' insurance on a bucket truck, you would need 'liability AND worker's compensation' insurances to cover any personal and property from the use of the 'bucket.' I believe that you could use a bucket truck without 'vehicle' insurance if you had 'liability' insurance on PRIVATE property and be covered adequately. // OK, Auto insurance is designed to pay for anything that happens or arises out of the use of any vehicle listed on the policy. It does not matter whether or not the vehicle is used on private property OR a public roadway, OR if it is moving or stationary, period. Their are really 2 types of auto insurance, personal and commercial. Personal insurance is designed for the average Joe that used their car or small truck(pickup) to drive back and forth to work(Notice I didn't say For work, very important!), take the kids to soccer practice and church on Sundays. It will even cover You if You help Your loving Mother in Law move into Your house and You bring her belongings over in the back of Your pickup, LOL!. This is what a personal use really is(At NO TIME are You making $$) . Business Auto or commercial insurance is designed for any type of vehicle that is used in the course of activities that generate income for Yourself or a Corporation, LLC etc. It does not matter if You own the Corp. or You work for it, or You are just doing a favor for the person who does own it.One of the main things that makes business auto insurance so different is that it has to cover not only driving accidents, but accidents that arise from what the different types of things vehicles do in the course of their travels, as the average person does not own a vehicle with a bucket truck on it, nor do they own a tanker truck filled with Jet fuel that they drive to Church on Sundays. Personal lines coverage just deals with one thing, accidents that come from small autos hitting something else(For the most part?). Business insurance covers a very broad spectrum of things that specialized vehicles do, and there could be a very different type of exposure the insurance CO would have to pay out on a claim based on what the vehicle in question was designed to do. In almost every state, the business auto insurance covers ANYTHING that arises from the use of the vehicle, PERIOD. Whether it is a hole made in the roof from a bucket, or a stream and local pond destroyed because 50 gallons of diesel fuel leaked from the fuel tanks, or the Thermo King unit took a crap and all 10,000 pds. of frozen fish got stinky really fast?, it is covered under the business auto policy and Your GL(General Liability) DOES NOT. General liability insurance is designed to pay for damages done through the course of Your normal business activities. This would include things like causing a roof to leak during an install, or one of Your employees flicking a cigarette into a pile of leaves at the customers house and the entire place burned down. Depending on how Your GL policy is written, or what state You live in, it may or may not cover SOME of the auto related claims as a secondary coverage, but secondary coverage ONLY. Most of the ones that do cover losses like this will have a paragraph in the policy itself stating that if there is no primary coverage from the business auto policy?, the GL coverage can not be used as primary. There are simply no shortcuts when it comes to buying insurance? Most states also make You carry a minimum medical coverage amount. This amount is primary even IF You have workman's Comp. So if You have $10,000 of medical coverage on Your business auto policy, and one of Your employees falls out of the bucket while it is in the air and breaks both of their legs?, Your business auto policy will pay the first $10,000 of the medical bills AND THEN workmans comp. will kick in a pay the rest. With all of the different types of insurance You mentioned Cliff in Your post above, each one has a purpose and will only pay out in a very specific instance. There is no way that You could purchase just a GL (General liability) policy and stretch it or do a little dance and hope that You are covered at the time of a loss. 2. If you have employees use their personal vehicle for business use, THEIR protection comes from THEIR policy coverage and is meant for their protection. If YOU, as their employer, want to be covered, you need to add 'non-owned vehicle' coverage to your liability insurance. That is what covers YOU in the event the employee causes a loss while using their personal vehicle for your business. Cliff, here again, personal lines policies will only pay for something that happens when You are driving Your car or truck for personal

What this means is that if You are on the plane and You want to listen to music, thats great?, but don't forget, You will also need to charge the batt. at some point, and You CAN NOT do both, unless You pack the spare batt. along to every place You go AND the portable charger that uses a 110AC outlet and a small black charger box.

Matt, It's funny you posted this message today I just picked up a new test phone I am trying to replace my Treo 650. I grabbed an HP iPaq 6945 from Cingular for $189 (with two year contract) and have been playing with it on an off for the last couple of days. The biggest advantage to this phone is the built-in GPS, along with WiFi and Bluetooth. There are some neat functions that are already built-in to the main OS... such as the camera showing GPS coordinates on the picture when you take it (if you enable that option). Also, many commercial map programs (TomTom 6, etc.) work on this phone with the GPS. With a simple car mount and car adapter, you have a full-fledged GPS device built into your phone. There are also programs that will connect to WiFi and update GPS coordinates to a website... so you could have real-time locations for your installers with no monthly fee. ;) It's running Windows Mobile 5, which is better than any other Windows phone OS I have used, but still not as easy to navigate as the Palm OS. The biggest feature on the Treo 650 for me is the SMS messaging. It's easy to access (single button) and it keeps a chat dialog going with each person you have talked to. I send and receive over 100 messages per day, sometimes 200-300. It's quick, easy, and can be done with one hand. If there was just a simple program that would function the same, the iPaq could be a great phone for me. I should also mention I purchased a Nokia 770 Internet Tablet. This is a pretty cool device as well built in WiFi and Bluetooth, running Linux with a nice GUI. Nice wide, bright screen too. It just doesn't have a phone or GPS, just WiFi. Still pretty cool for that type of a device.

Re: [WISPA] Widespread abuse of FCC rules, a list...was TV whitespaces
Hey Gang, After reading this thread for a few hours, I told myself I would shut up and just go away, but I must say, after pacing around the house for awhile and reviewing all of the things that I know in my mind?, I must say something?(Not that anyone gives a rats behind?). Look, what Patrick has posted to this list(As much as I hate to say it, and not because it's Patrick, its because of the actual subject?) is TRUE!. If You are looking to find some truth to his statements?, just wander over to DSL Reports WISP forum( http://www.dslreports.com/forum/wisp ) and review some of the posts that have been made there over the years?. At least every other day or so, someone posts a question about how far they can hook up a client using a 1 watt amp with a 15.5dBi omni. When I first started in this business, if the salesperson at Ecomm, Winncomm etc. didn't know You?, and You asked for a 1 watt amp?, they wouldn't sell it?, or at least You had to answer a LOT of questions as to what You were going to use it for?. Today, all someone has to do is go to ebay, or call any of the popular vendors and in most cases?, it is on a UPS truck in 24hrs headed for Your address. I am NOT blaming any vendor for this mess any more than I am blaming the FCC or our industry as a police force, it just needs to be said that it IS heading in the wrong direction quickly(I think Patrick's mention of the slippery slope is accurate?). To add to the mess is a list of consultants that have popped up as of late?. In 2000, if You typed in WISP as a search word?, You got almost NO hits. Today, when You repeat this, the result is CRAZY! ( Results 1 - 10 of about 3,430,000 for WISP-From Google!) . The current trend in the WISP business is headed right towards the same debacle as the CB radio craze of the 70's? (I guess I am showing my age, LOL!). That problem ended because the spectrum was so wasted that You couldn't even talk to someone down the street, and cell phone and other communications technologies replaced the medium. While I do not know anyone in a high position in the FCC at the time, I am almost positive that more than one FCC meeting had people with their arms in the air going, OMG!, What are we going to do??. IMHO.ahh, You know what?, scratch my opinion, lets just say that in my experience, I know where this entire deal is headed unless something major happens?, it will be a wasteland that is sooo bad, You won't even have to put Your coffee in the microwave to heat it up, just open the protective steel front doors on Your house and set it outside for a few seconds and it is ready!( OK, a little overboard, but I think You all get my point?). I have been in this business since 2000. When I started lighting up PoP's in 2001, a site survey yielded nothing, nada, zip zilch zero as far as other AP's or competitors 802.11b AP's. Now, at those same PoP's, I can find on average at least 8 to 10 active AP's. I know all of You have seen this?. While some are just home user AP's, they are there non the less!. Heck, the other day an AP showed up with a -58!!!. I traced it down to a home user that had a 13.5dBi omni on his/her roof. While I have no idea why they did that?(My guess is to provide better coverage in their house and back yard or maybe share their cable connection?), it is insane that a consumer was allowed to purchase that stuff!. If any of You think that we do not have an issue with people violating FCC rules?, You had better think again!. It is not just WISP's but all types of people that include consumers, municipal, school and business IT depts. and a few consultants who yesterday where saying Wendys drive thru, can I take Your order please? and now today they are spouting out, I are a wi-fi consultant. I just find it odd that the alarm bells are not ringing in more heads than just a few of us?. Dennis Burgess - 2K Wireless wrote: Interesting thread, very good points on all fronts.

Re: [WISPA] Widespread abuse of FCC rules, a list...was TV whitespaces
There is one thing that I failed to mention, and I thought it very important to point it out?. While I do see all of this happening at some locations, I must say that it has not hampered my ability to deploy or to operate my business?.. There is a HUGE difference between a hack and a professional. There are hacks in any business and these people are never around for long, as there are no shortcuts in this business no matter who tells You otherwise. The ability to engineer around these obstacles is a known thing, and all of us professionals know this fact. I personally consider someone running outside the regulations to be a hack. Just like a cloud of gnats that are in Your face when working on a tower or an install, these gnats eventually die or get blown away by the winds of change, and they really are only a temporary annoyance?. I made my original post to point out some of the shortcomings in the current system. While these shortcomings are there?, they are no different than any other business that You run?. Lets face it, if we could all run and cry about things we didn't like to the Govt. agency responsible for our line of work and get them to make changes that only benefited our line of work?, the stock and investment markets would be a perfect place?. The price of crude oil would be constant, all mutual funds would have a guaranteed rate of return and that entire business would be a utopia of sorts?. We all know that will never happen, and that industry itself has fallen once or twice (Think-Great Depression), but it is still here, as there are some really smart professionals out there that see all of the current setbacks and figure ways around them. Our business is no different. While it may seem as though I am trying to correct my first post?(I am man enough to pull my own foot out of my mouth), I am really not. I re-read what I sent out, and I just wanted to make sure that everyone who read it took it in the right context and did not interpret it as a doomsday message? (It really was not meant to be a Chicken Little The sky is falling type post but it sure did look like one?). I am just trying to point out some of the things that are happening in our business, and those road blocks are happening in EVERY business. If it were so horrible, most of us smart guys would have sold out a long time ago while the going was good. The WISP business is here to stay and the things that I mentioned in my first post are real, but they are not insurmountable.

Re: [WISPA] Vent pipe installs?
I was reading this, and I just had to add my 2 cents (like anyone cares.). If you are mounting on vent pipes, please use EXTREME caution. On all of the newer homes, these pipes are PVC (The older cast pipes are not a problem). The section of pipe that sticks out is usually not supported very well. I have mounted on the vent pipe myself, so I can't say I don't do it, but I will say that if you can grab the vent pipe and pull it up and down and it appears to very loose, either do not mount anything on it, OR, go up into the attic, crawl space etc. and add a brace. Almost 90% of the time, the pipe itself is only held in place by the glued joint where it connects to the internal plumbing. It obviously can not move sideways because it is held in place by the various holes it passes through coming up the inside walls and roof. I know of a situation where the CPE was mounted on the vent pipe (not me) and strong winds twisted the PVC, causing it to snap off inside the home. The result was a nasty bill from the plumber, as they had to cut away part of the wall on 2 floors to repair it. I guess the moral of the story is to just take an extra 5 minutes on every vent pipe install and add a brace to the pipe under the roof every time you use one for an install. It will save you lots of headaches in the long run. P.S. I only use vent pipes as a last resort for a mounting location. :-) George Rogato wrote: Mike Hammett wrote: Preferred vendor for vent pipe mounts? Plumbing supply store. Buy a coupling the right size and type. I should say, not all vent pipe mounts need the vent extended. And sometimes, we can slip the cat 5 cable under the roof jack and into the attic. I wouldn't be adding 5' of vent pipe myself, maybe a couple feet at most. Like the other guy said, it's not always that stable. WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Small generators - cheap or inexpensive?
John, We have a unit that I paid about $300 for from Tractor Supply. It is made by Champion Tools and has 3500 watts continuous with a 4000 watt surge capacity. It has a LOT more than 150 hours on it without a bit of problems. They key in my mind and from talking to others is keeping it properly maintained. Regular oil changes, running it under load every month for maybe 10 minutes or so. I use it for extended power outages and my motor home for awhile now without any problems. Sounds like the Yamaha dealer is trying to make a sale? John Valenti wrote: I was looking around for a method to keep at least my backbone running during an extended power outage. (we have had ice storms take out power for 4 - 7 days). It seemed like the small generators might be a solution, the Honda/ etc name brand ones seem to be ~$600 for 1000 watts. And I found a company that sells Yamaha 1000W generators converted to dual fuel (NG or propane) for about $1000. They also sell a 2400 watt generator that is triple fuel, gas/NG/propane that is tempting, even at $1600. But then I ran across some imported 2 stroke, 1000 watt generators. Harbor Freight has them in their catalog for about $150. I found a similar one in a local store that is on sale for $99. The box says it will run for 8 hours on tank of gas (at half load, 1.25 gallons). These imported ones just seem like they are too cheap. And I'm not too fond of 2 stokes. That Yamaha dealer warns that the cheap generators are only designed to last 150 hours - but maybe 150 hours for $100 isn't too bad a deal. Just wondering if anyone has thoughts or experiences on this issue. thanks WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Uh-Oh, they are ready to discipline Internet service providers
Kurt, You can always do what we have since 2003, BAN all P2P traffic on the network. It is listed right in the first paragraph in our TOS and each customer is told upfront about it. I have turned off radios and I have even pulled radios because of it. I guess the most important issue is telling them up front BEFORE they sign up. P2P is the worst application that can be run on a network of half-duplex radios. I do have a few customers that use it for work related functions (Linux distro's etc.) that I allow to run. One of the main things that really PO's me is that some gaming CO's use P2P to distribute their patches and stuff. IMHO, the cheap [EMAIL PROTECTED] should buy a server and purchase some bandwidth instead of free loading on our networks. :o Kurt Fankhauser wrote: Right, it's unregulated business, if the customers don't like it then go find another provider, where will it stop?

On another note, the island was destroyed in most places. We worked for two days straight replacing/repairing AP's and CPE's. One thing I have to give Tranzeo, their radios are pretty tough. I found a few of them ripped off their mounts laying under debris a few hundred feet away from their original location. Replaced the CAT5 ends, plugged them in and they came right back up!. There was so much sand blown inland that they actually had to plow the roads. It looked like a huge snow storm had hit the island. I hope they never see another storm like that again.

Re: [WISPA] How many of you actually use your own service?
I use my competitors wireless, as I can not service myself. I can tell you that I have nothing to worry about, as I never get more than 512k down, and that is at 2AM. We do cooperate though, and they have hooked up some of their customers to my service. It does make me feel good about myself, knowing I am doing as good of a job if not better than my neighbors. :-) Marlon K. Schafer wrote: I use my wireless and telco dsl.

Re: [WISPA] Ethernet problems
I was reading this thread, and I had a thought (scary thing!, LOL), it it possible that inside the conduit, there is a rough edge (maybe the edge of a junction box if you are not using LBE's?) that scraped off the outside covering and you now have exposed wires that you can not see?. Perhaps the wires are exposed somewhere and a little bit of moisture (even humidity) got inside the conduit and is causing the errors?. It would really be a long shot, as this rough edge would have to scrape off the shielding from both CAT5 cables, but I have seen stranger things. I have also had problems in the past from bad ballasts in flourescent lights. Even if they are a few feet away, they make all sorts of strange things happen. Another place to look is bad power supplies. I installed a radio at a customers home one time that had a power supply. It made noise thru every computer speaker. As soon as you unplugged the power supply, the noise went away. It also would allow the radio to boot up, but the ethernet was just screwy, sometimes passing packets, sometimes not. Good luck in your search!.

I installed a Belden? outdoor Cat5E cable, a Mohawk outdoor gel cable, a rope for future cable additions, and an RG6 quad shield TV cable in a conduit. Numerous times I cut off slack on both ends of the original cable (the Belden). All that fixed the problem was turning off auto negotiation and setting it to 100 HDX. A few weeks later the problems returned, and I set it to 10 HDX. Now, maybe 6 weeks later the problem is back. I switched to the Mohawk cable. I put on a different PoE injector and a different ECS cable (PacWireless cable that provides an Ethernet jack on the outside of the enclosure and has a 1' pigtail that plugs into the Mikrotik board.

I tried different patch cables from the injectors to the laptop\desktop. I really don't want to pull 200' of cable only to have it not work again. Does anyone have a good Ethernet tester I can borrow\rent? Not one that just says if the pins make it (I had one of those and it said the cable was fine), but one that is a bit more advanced.

Re: [WISPA] High Gain 8186HP CPE
I currently use both Deliberant and Highgain products without any issues. I mean, don't get me wrong, I have had some very simple problems with both vendors, but all of it was corrected ASAP. The only way I will use Tranzeo is for their 5Ghz units, as I have a bunch of them deployed as backhauls. I had tried Tranzeo units in the past for CPE's, but the firmware issues drove me nuts. The Deliberant units have all been rock solid and do what they are supposed to do, keep my customers online. The Highgain units have been great too. The OSBridge gear he sells works really well, as I have a few 5Gxi units in place for both backhaul in the 5.8Ghz range and PtmP in the 5.2Ghz range. These units are small and light weight , almost to the point of looking and feeling cheesey , but yet they keep right on rolling along, so I guess looks are deceiving?. The price point from these two vendors is also hard to beat. The DLB units are around $150 each and the HighGain units can be had for $99 each. I guess each person has their own opinion about how things work. My luck is usually really bad, as most everything I touch seems to fall apart and break (Maybe that was just a SmartBridges curse?, LOL!) I have a pair of the OSBridge full duplex backhaul units on order, and I am anxious to see how well they perform?. I am hoping to get around 30Mb each way with them, so I guess we will see how they do?. http://www.highgainantennas.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5GXTShow=TechSpecs Smith, Rick wrote: Deliberant has a nice cpe now in the 2714 model.

It appears that he had attached a wrench to the wrong carabiner on another climbers harness. When climber #2 detached the carabiner, the wrench fell without his knowledge. Climber #2 was up to 50' above Climber #1 at this time. The wrench appears to have hit the ladder directly in front of Climber #1's face and entered end-first into his mouth. This chipped a couple of his front teeth, cracked one of his wisdom teeth, and tore a quarter-sized hole in the soft pallet near the rear of his mouth. The tear required six stitches. Needless to say, we are quite grateful for the outcome. This incident underscores the extreme risk that our climbers operate under. It also illustrates how a very simple error can have potentially devastating consequences. His injuries, although quite painful, were not life threatening. It could easily have been otherwise. Had the wrench hit his temple, forehead, or eye socket, it could have resulted in blindness or even death. Our hats go off to all of the brave guys who operate in this environment.

Re: [WISPA] Found a spot
I read a lot and rarely post these days, but after reading this, I just felt I had to add my $.02 I have been in the WISP business for 9 years. I deployed into areas that had no options other than myself. Every time I deployed, cable or DSL followed me within weeks of turning up an AP. They offered higher speeds and lower prices. I initially thought I was doomed. As it turned out, it didn't matter and in some respects, it helped as people became more aware of high speed. No matter where you deploy, people will never change in the respect that they all hate the big CO's. They will almost always pick a local CO over some big Corp that doesn't care about anything other than the $$. As mentioned before, make yourself stand out somehow, some way. It could be as simple as same day installs, on time appointments, whatever? Don't let the fact that other forms of broadband exist in the areas you want to work in stop you. There is plenty of room for everyone. Just take your time, properly engineer your network, make it reliable and DO NOT cut corners when buying your gear. Another DO NOT is installing customers with marginal signal levels or installing radios in places where something could make them stop working over time (Like doing an install in the Winter, forgetting that trees bloom in Spring, DUH!) When I first started, I mistakenly thought that I MUST install and put online, every person that called. I cut down trees, erected 50ft masts at no extra cost and just did a lot of stupid things that wasted both money and time. Eventually, I learned that you need to pick and choose your customers wisely. Whenever I get to a home and I am doing a site survey, I immediately can not get a signal if it is full of teenagers or adults that are asking me what programs they need to install so they can get all that FREE music and movies that are on the internet. Some may say this is harsh, but hey, it is my business and I run it as I see fit. I have also banned any peer to peer use on my network and the customer knows this BEFORE I install them by signing my TOS. I am not the moral police and this is probably another subject for another thread, but it is what I have chosen to do. Run your business like you would want a CO to treat you if you were buying something. While I am not a terribly religious man, there is a quote that sticks out from the Bible and it applies here: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Follow this little parable and things will work on their own.

Re: [WISPA] Netequilizer
I've had a NetEq box running for over 3 years. It is a plug and play setup and does a great job if you like the hands off sorta thing. The bad side is the licensing and the upgrading policy. IT STINKS!. If you buy a unit that is only 3 months old off of Ebay, you can forget support. There was a thread awhile back on the DSL Reports wireless forum. I remember reading it and not liking the policies. You also have to purchase upgrades and some other little quirks that just didn't make me smile. - Original Message - From: Jeremie Chism jchi...@gmail.com To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Thursday, May 06, 2010 9:31 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Netequilizer And I'm sure it can probably prioritize voip traffic.

It was before Butch came up with his solution. It was a real lifesaver for us; it kept any users from monopolizing the pipe at the peril of others. One major caveat, unless they've changed it, it only plays traffic cop for one subnet. It will look for long duration, multiple thread, connections and put 50 ms delays in the packets if the network gets busy and leave headroom for the bursty users. Another good thing it can do is limit the number of concurrent connections any one IP can have open. This effectively throttles torrents in an agnostic way.
