Re: [WISPA] Leasing Companies
If you have a good business plan your probably better off dealing with a local bank IMO. If you cant convince the bank your business plan is good then something might be wrong with your business plan. We do out of pocket now but several years ago after showing the bank our business plan they gave me whatever I wanted as long as I showed them my MRC.

I do not think that I can rebuild my home again. I cannot say enough about the volunteers that were here to help after Katrina. Some people of whom their names I may have forgot, but I will never forget their faces. They worked damn near around the clock for weeks on end, without any complaints. I've spent the last week trying to harden my system here. It will be made available to any group that may need it. I owe a lot to WISPA and to Part-15. I'm pretty sure that Joe Laura in New Orleans feels the same way. We have to work together to get things back up as soon as possible. Although it is tracking to south west Lousiana, it is still too far out the detimine where the eye will hit land. We just have to be prepared no matter where it hits. This storm is getting large enough to do a lot of damage to a lot of areas. As I sit here in south Mississippi, I will be praying that people make the right decision and get out of harms way. There is no reason why we should have any loss of life. They know a storm is approaching. I will keep this list updated on how things are progressing on the MS gulf coast.

Re: [WISPA] SF Earthlink Study
IMO the only thing that will make earthlink really have a chance of being profitable in the wi-fi arena is if they are able to sell city government and/or business services. I think New Orleans is using the earthlink service for the city camera project but I am not sure if they are charging a fee for this or not. I could come up with some really neat ideas to sell service off of the earthlink network but the coverage just is not there IMO. They are offering a indoor CPE with a service commitment but in many cases a indoor CPE is not going to get clients a reliable connection.

Right now, a handful of cities (I think they are the 3 Metro-Fi cities in Silicon Valley, plus Mtn View) are getting 1Mb. This is totally dependent of the depth of the pockets of Metro-Fi's backers and on the advertising revenues. Ever play with a puppy in a pet store? They are so cute, you just have to take it home. If the business model doesn't pay out i.e.: They don't get enough paying subscribers or they don't get the revenue from the ads, then you will see it change. Not saying that was Metricom's demise, but they had few users and any Metro network takes gobs of money to build out. I've seen it first hand... With this model and with the equipment that will be used in SF. It ain't free and it ain't cheap! (kimo) I agree with you- I think Metro-Fi's model still has yet to be proved a success. On the other hand ATT is doing Portland Oregon with them so there may be more developing on this. 2. So Seattle will have it in 10 years. By then, there will be something bigger and better. Will the SF residents have to wait 10 years too? Not something I'd be willing to do- especially when I was faced with a proposal from someone who will do it for free and assume all the risk. What has SF got to lose? (kimo) The EarthLink deal doesn't compare favorably with what other cities are getting - Why should SF settle? Sf already has more hotspots than any other city in the nation. It is not hard to find a free hotspot currently. SF shouldn't lock itself in to what is effectively a 16 year monopoly deal with tech that is already dated. 3. Milpitas, CA. No tall residential buildings (but some are under construction. A 24-30 ft high access point with the relatively low gain of the Tropos antennas will have a good amount of upward radiation. It isn't that much better of an antenna than a dipole would be. It certainly has little, if any, directional abilities. It may not go up into a 30 story hotel or apartment house, but how many residence in SF are in those? That can easily be the 5 or 10 % allowed not to be covered. Most of my friends in SF live in 2-4 story abodes. According to the web page, the CPE is given with a paid connection anyway, so there's no-one not getting one except for the people taking the freebie. Even if I chose to live in a place that required use of a CPE, it is no different than buying an XM receiver to listen to XM, or buying a transistor radio or boom box to listen to free radio. (kimo) Hmm ok, well there are more and more tall residential buildings in SF and isn't anything over 2 stories already above the 40 ft coverage that EarthLink is agreeing too? Are you suggesting (I hope it's true) that a CPE solves all indoor and above 40 ft issues? I thought it was of limited value? -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/

If a move brings a company in a positive direction, why not do it? The new tower never costs as much as the early ones. Everytime a new tower is built, new opportunity gets created, but old costs get shared, such as the upfront fixed costs of backbone transit bandwdith and primary overhead office staff.

Our AUs have options to be inserted into chassis with redundant power supplies, etc. The difference in cost of the AU is minimal when working out the entire cost of the sector and its clients, especially when working in the OPEX issues. For example, OPEX aside, let's say you are in the AlvarionCOMNET program and buy at the minimum level of 25 CPE, which would get you a $285/CPE cost with free shipping. Let's assume all 25 of those attach to a VL sector. In that case the sector will cost you about $1900 plus $285 x 25, or $9,025. The equivalent size network at Mikrotik with the prices in this thread would be $348 x 25 + the $500 AU or $9,200 + shipping. So, not even counting the OPEX issues, reduced truck roll, and shipping we are $175 cheaper. Then add in the 1 year free warranty, domestic support, FCC legality, and higher equity value of the network. Let's not forget no user license fees, no fee for new software upgrades.

Having said that, a lot of people put in the high gain 900 omni antennas and don't seem to have much trouble with them. I agree with the sector idea though. The 900 that I'm using now is trango. They have almost got the full eirp built right in to the radio/antenna system as it comes from the factory. The down side is that it takes 6 ap's to cover 360*. That can get spendy.

Re: [WISPA] Legal insight? - OTARD VS Property Managers
I did direct tv for years. Still do. You really have to read the rules to do a install and be sure you are in the clear. For instance, you can not just bolt a satellite arm on the wall even if it is not a common area. Thats why you see alot of 5 gallon buckets of concrete with pipes in them. From memory I do not think you are allowed to drill through the wall either. I used to use a 6 or so flat cable coupler that the window would close on. I would try to do the install in the late evenings after the managment office closed and leave a copy of the Otard rule with the tennant with my phone# on the front of it.

Many towers have expensive ($100k) point to point links to feed the system, and then a full rack of equipment inside. The idea is that every emergency service would be able to communicate with each other using only 1 radio. They will also have voice and data services from that same radio, and it's fully roaming. I only know of two towers with it running, but there are plans to install several more systems this summer. Travis Microserv Dawn DiPietro wrote: By Jeffrey Silva May 12, 2006 WASHINGTON—Law enforcement and first-responder groups asked key Senate lawmakers to consider a private-sector plan to designate a block of spectrum in the 700 MHz band for a national wireless broadband public-safety network, one that would be shared with commercial wireless carriers and include an interoperability capability policy-makers have repeatedly call for—without success—since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorists attacks. “We are dedicated to ensuring that public safety has access to the most advanced technology to support those services that meet its stringent requirements to provide safety and security to all Americans. Congress and the [Federal Communications Commission] cannot afford to pass an opportunity to explore the availability of an additional 30 megahertz of spectrum that would meet public safety’s needs as well as elevate the safety of all Americans,” stated the organizations in a letter to Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) and the panel’s ranking Democrat, Sen. Daniel Inouye (Hawaii). The letter was signed by officials of the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials-International, International Association of Chiefs of Police, International Association of Fire Chiefs, Major Cities Chiefs Association, Major County Sheriffs’ Association and National Sheriffs’ Association. The groups said they are studying the proposal submitted by Cyren Call Communications Inc. to the FCC late last month, and have not decided whether to endorse it. “However,” they stated, “we do believe that the concept of reallocating the 30 megahertz of spectrum in the 700 MHz band in a manner that would promote interoperable, public-safety broadband communications is worthy of public discussion.” A public debate that could prompt lawmakers to reconsider plans to auction by February 2008 valuable spectrum in the 747-762 MHz and 777-792 MHz bands is precisely what the cell-phone industry wants to avoid. Mobile-phone carriers are keenly aware of how Cyren Chairman Morgan O’Brien won over policy-makers in the late 1980s when he presented the then-radical idea of cobbling together narrow radio dispatch frequencies to create Nextel Communications Inc. (now part of Sprint Nextel Corp.). Nextel became a competitor to the cellular duopoly at that time. National mobile-phone carrier executives have not forgotten either about Nextel’s successful campaign to remedy interference Nextel caused to 800 MHz radio systems in a way that secured Nextel 10 megahertz of spectrum in the 1.9 GHz band. Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.), chairman of the House telecom and Internet subcommittee, is the only lawmaker to publicly voice outright opposition to Cyren’s proposal. Upton did so shortly after Cyren submitted its proposal to the FCC on April 27. The Michigan lawmaker argued the plan would disrupt the balance in legislation that forced broadcasters to surrender 700 MHz as part of their transition to digital technology, set aside 24 megahertz for public safety and earmarked $1 billion for public-safety interoperability deployment. The 24 megahertz already reserved for public safety is adjacent to the separate, clear chunk of 30 megahertz at the heart of Cyren’s initiative. The 30 megahertz is potentially worth billions of dollars in auction receipts for the U.S. Treasury. In addition to mobile-phone carriers, wireless Internet and computer firms have expressed interest in the 700 MHz spectrum to drive WiMAX and other wireless broadband technologies. “While the FCC is currently exploring whether its rules should be modified to

This in theory works well but in reality, you still run out of 2.4 GHz channels to place the access nodes on. Remember each radio/mesh unit is at the same height as every other one thus firing their signal directly in to the antenna of all neighboring nodes. The users may not see the noise but node to node traffic certainly hears it. When the mesh radio is deaf because of noise, the network just plain fails to work. End of story. Mesh will simply not work on a loaded residential user based system without a lot more spectrum. People are trying to fight the laws of physics. Ask any ham radio guy about this. When they originally built packet radio networks back in the early 90's, they found you needed separate channels to make it work (and that was only 1200 baud). San Francisco, Philly and any other muni network are going to fail based on this problem. The idea and premise of a muni network is solid based on the points Matt Larsen brought up but as Jack and others have stated, they have been sold on all of the positive benefits but never get told the limitations. The typical IT mentality is that they can throw more money at the problem to increase capacity. This is simply not true based on the limited number of useable channels.

Re: [WISPA] Generator -- UPS
If you plug something into the surge only outlet on the UPS then when the power goes down intermapper or whatever you use will let you know - Original Message - From: Mark Nash [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Saturday, February 04, 2006 11:36 AM Subject: [WISPA] Generator -- UPS Winds in my area knocked power out early this morning (GEORGE R - heard you guys had 100mph gusts on the Oregon coast...how'd it go?). I power all my WiPOPs with an APC UPS (Smart-UPS 700) and grid power. They keep the sites up for 2-3 hours depending on equipment load at the site. I put in a SNMP card (AP9617 - can e-mail upon many different UPS events without having a SNMP server). I get notified that the site is on battery power...buys me time to get to the site with a generator. My goal is to have a generator that I can plug the UPS into. Here's the scenario I want: 1: Power out. I get notified that UPS is running on batteries. Get geared up. 2: Hook up generator to UPS. (here's the important part) BATTERIES CHARGE ON UPS. 3: UPS Battery gets fully charged. I get notified 'fully charged'. 4: Fuel in generator runs out. I get notified that UPS is running on batteries. 5: Get fuel to site within 1-2 hours restart generator. GOTO 3:. Site never goes down and I don't have to make unnecessary trips because I think the generator might be low on fuel. Last year we had power down at a site down for 2.5 weeks. Problem was that the site was a last priority because the problem was past any homes with humans in them. Shuttling gas to a generator twice a day for 3 hours of driving for 2.5 weeks got very very very old very very very quickly. I've got a generator now (Coleman 1850W). Even with the power sensitivity level set to low on the UPS's, it they won't run on the generator. So I think I need cleaner power. Recommendations? (power just came back up to my site...got notified by the UPS...gotta go and take the equipment off the generator and plug it into the UPS...customers down for 60 seconds while the Trango backhaul boots).

New Orleans could easilly instead announce a grant offer or loan program for small business ISPs, to rebuild New Orlean's communications systems. They could understand the problem with having only a monopoly providing most of the services. And they could fix that problem from the start, empowering the vast amount of talent the industry has to offer, to accellerate the launch of a network. Instead they get their network designed by a Manufacturer. The mayor should be helping the peiople rebuild their homes and neighborhoods, and let the communication companies do their own thing. How about giving the grant money to New Orlean local businesses? It may add one or two more local jobs.

The hotel owners are pretty upset with this as well. Ya, the City has really ruffled some feathers over this move. Regardless of whether or not the City of New Orleans government needs a spanking ;) -- I have a fairly different take on this matter, one less focused on the specifics of the New Orleans/BellSouth fiasco and more oriented toward BellSouth's general business strategy. BellSouth is clearly attempting to leverage it's market dominance in one area (wireline communications) to prevent competition in a different realm (in this case, wireless networking). This is exactly the type of dynamic that anti-trust laws were intended to keep in check. BellSouth's actions in New Orleans are just the most recent manifestation of a strategy that _will_ be utilized against folks like us (e.g., independent ISPs). BellSouth has systematically attempted to prevent any sort of competition within their service areas -- their New Orleans tantrum is only the latest example. I wrote up a brief piece about some of their most recent actions here: http://www.saschameinrath.com/2005dec04bellsouths_shame I'm sure there are numerous ways in which the City of New Orleans needs reforming -- but BellSouth's actions are targeted against any and all competitive entities -- they will certainly focus on WISPA members down the road. Instead of blaming New Orleans for what is obviously a widespread business strategy, I'd recommend focusing on BellSouth, who clearly isn't interested in playing well with others and has a well-documented history of using its market power to bully others. --Sascha -- Sascha Meinrath Policy Analyst* Project Coordinator * President Free Press *** CUWiN *** Acorn Active Media www.freepress.net * www.cuwireless.net * www.acornactivemedia.com -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- No virus found in this incoming message.

There is a wisp here that has a meeting with the FCC today here in New Orleans to try to make them take their 36db dishes down and play nice. Everyone wants to shoot 5.8 and it just aint working no more. 5.8 gear is still up and hopfully it will beable to be used again cause the 5.2/.3 is extremly crowded as you can imagine.

Sorry I did not post a reply until now. I just got the opportunity to sit in front of a PC. I want to thank you'll for all the E-Mails I got of support. I really needed that. Its extremly hard to sit down an even just type something about this Hurricane. It has been a nightmare to say the least for all of us on the Gulf Coast. All of my family is alive and I am so thankfull for that. The mental effects that this has on one is unimaginable. At first I thought it was just me but everyone I talk to just begins to break down when they realize the reality of what is going on. I am determined to get past this and find the strength to be back in action as soon as I can get back home. They are talking maybe three months to even drive into New Orleans. I am at my Wifes cousins house and Shrevport and just wish all of the other people were as fortunate as I to have a roof over there head. Thanks for the offers of help!! Its the things such as that, that help us keep strong!
