I have about 60 customers or so using the 5GXIs connected to Mikrotik APs using 10 MHz channels. It works out great as long as you don't have any trees in the way.

Re: [WISPA] Reverse DNS troubles
A quicker workaround than convincing your IP provider to set the reverse for you would be to use a remotely dedicated or co-located server (or even a cheaper virtual server) to bounce all of your outgoing and incoming mail through. That way you could set up something like mta.yourdomain.com forward and reverse, which all mail will pass through both incoming and out to make the overzealous spam filters pass the mail. Graham On 9/4/07, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Gang, I have started having trouble with my customers email getting bounced because other servers are checking the reverse dns, which fails to resolve to my domain because my network is served by a satellite connection (I'm the epitome of rural). Does anyone know of a work-around, or do I have to convince my upstream they need to change it to resolve to my domain (which may be hard to get to happen.). If I have to work with my upstream, how should I go about this / approach it. FYI, they are ses-americom.com.

Re: [WISPA] lightning rods?
I made one out of an old (shot) bearing that came with my tower (I got it free for taking it down) and a few pieces of stranded heavier gauge copper wire. The bearing was for a mast I don't use, so I was able to mount it on the very top of my tower since it already had the mount for it there. It's only grounded to the tower metal itself and has been up for a little over a year. I haven't blown a radio on that tower yet, so I presume it's doing the job... we've had plenty of lightning storms come through this year.

Re: [WISPA] Nstreme2 Link Pacwireless
I have a VIA Epia M1000 with a DC-DC 12v power supply. If I recall correctly, it drew 17 watts @ 12v with a RB24 card in it. Although I haven't done it, there shouldn't be a reason you couldn't run that off PoE with a reverse-injector on the motherboard side to take the power off the cat5 before it gets to the board. The newer DC-DC power supplies ( http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-60-WI?sc=8category=13 ) are probably much more efficient than the older one I have. Graham On 8/1/07, Travis Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Now you are understanding what the rest of us have been going thru for the past couple of years. ;) The RB532 is underpowered for big backhaul links, yet any of the mini-itx or micro-itx boards need 120VAC or a seperate power cable and a power converter inside the box. Running LMR cable works for short runs (20-30ft), but after that it just limits the signal too much. What we really need is an 800mhz Routerboard in the same form factor as the current RB532. :) Travis Microserv Jory Privett wrote: 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] Alvarion VL on AM Tower
Correct, ideally you should place one at each end of the cable, right before it's terminated. They just clamp over the cable itself and help reduce spurious RF by turning it in to heat before it gets to your equipment. If you're need to chock the cat5 and power line, I'd use a single ferrite choke at the end of each cable (they're cheap). That should help cut down substantially on outside interference on the cables.

Re: [WISPA] 5 GHz attenuation
I have two towers running MT APs at 5.8 with CM9s and 16 dBi horiz sectors. Using Osbridge 5GXi's as the CPE, I have clients a few miles out with non-LOS and the occasional treeline without any issues. I also have one house about 3/4 mile away from my tower that's going through nearly 1/4 mile of scattered trees. It attenuates pretty badly during heavy rain until the leaves on the trees dry out, but stays connected. It's my parents-in-law's house, so they're a little more forgiving if it happens to drop than a client would be ;) Half a mile with scattered trees shouldn't be a problem for you, even with snow/rain attenuation.

Re: [WISPA] 5 GHz attenuation
The CPE is a LiteStation5 running OSWave firmware (stock LS5 firmware did not work with Routing/Nat/DHCP), in a 23 dBi ARC Wireless antenna. The trees around here (NE Dallas area) are some pine, oak, pecan, locust, etc. Right now the trees are a little damp from a ton of rain the past few days. Signal levels for the 3/4 mile link with ~1/4 mile trees is: -69 dBm Rx at the CPE -72 dBm Rx on the tower Without the trees that link would be WAY higher than that. I also have a client about 2.5 - 3 miles away NLOS (maybe 1 or 2 treelines) that sits around -80 dBm on both sides. He's been up for almost a year and I don't think it's ever dropped from attenuation. Right now 100% of my clients are on 5.8 GHz. After working with it in the field for a while I can vouch for it being one heck of a tricky animal. Links that look perfectly fine in radiomobile just flat out don't work, and others that RM shows will never work haven't even dropped a single time since they've been up. I just started adding 900 to my towers so I don't have to brute-force my way through iffy links with higher power on 5ghz.

The town is basically a square with the tower on the far west side in about the center. It is 1/2 mile to the extreme corners, so there are a lot of people 1/4 mile and less. Someone on another list mentioned water retention as a show-stopper, but my limited experience had me thinking just about anything less than a 1/2 mile would work. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com - Original Message - From: Graham McIntire [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Friday, June 22, 2007 11:25 AM Subject: Re: [WISPA] 5 GHz attenuation I have two towers running MT APs at 5.8 with CM9s and 16 dBi horiz sectors.
