Here is a map image I created from the National Broadband Map Data current
as of Round 5 (12-2011). This does not reflect the most current updates you
would have submitted last month. The East Coast states are very
underrepresented. Let's see if we can make a push to change that. If you
know WISP's who are not participating with their state mapping agencies
please encourage them to do so.

Re: [WISPA] East coast storm

[Victoria Proffer]

Thank you Martha and Brough for your updated status.  

I am so glad  you are safe!

 

For me, his was one of the better mornings to wake up to.  

I know that there has been a loss of life, but considering the size of this
storm, it is minimal.  

I also know that there will be power issues for days, but it is survivable
and manageable.  

 

I am glad to know that there are concerned folks that were there and ready
to jump in, should this storm had turned a corner for the worse.

I am proud to be a member of WISPA/WECAT, who has been networking since
Saturday to pull people, equipment and whatever the potential WISPs would
have required; should the need have arose.

 

This storm ingrains the concept even further in me that WISPA members are
not just members of a trade organization, we are a community first, but also
an amazing extended family.

We have the big guys beat, not necessarily by the size of our networks or
our pocket books, but by the size of our hearts.

You guys are wonderful!

 

God bless you all,

Victoria

little notice/ The phone lines went down about 2 hours prior to evacuation.
There is no cell phone or television  service in the area.

I am sorry if I don't get this right Fred, but I don't believe this is the
petition, rather than it is the complaint.
 
Is that correct?


It is their "Petition for Waiver".  It is basically a complaint, but since
WISPs are not licensees, and the WISPs haven't actually done anything wrong,
they cannot file a real complaint against them.  Instead they are
petitioning to have WISPs ignored in CAF Phase I.

However, it is accompanied by a number of Exhibits which deserve attention
too.  To see it, go to the FCC's e-filing page, then ECFS, and search for
"CenturyLink" as the filer and "petition for waiver" as the type.  You'll
see that this was filed in a whole bunch of Dockets.  

They pulled a bunch of WISPs' coverage maps off of the NBM and decided that
they were "implausible".  Now a few are sort of sloppy, basically simple
radii.  CL claims that radio coverage never fits a perfect circle due to
terrain and they are close to correct there.  However, some WISP maps may
simply stop at 10 miles even if they can go farther.  They also rule any
WISP implausible if its coverage area is more than 10 miles wide.  They
simply assume that a WISP has exactly one tower, so any bigger coverage must
be a lie!  I note that some of the maps look like they were generated by
RadioMobile.  But they were fed into the state mapping entity as part of the
NBM project. The state maps in turn tend to be normalized to census blocks
or even larger areas.  So the map is not identical to the RadioMobile
coverage prediction or for that matter any real coverage.  This is an
artifact of the NBM, not the WISPs' own doing.  The map exaggerates CL's
coverage too, the same way.  DSL touching a census block makes that whole
block look covered.




 
And let me state on a side note ... your interjections in WISPA business, in
my opinion, is extremely valued!

I am sorry if I don't get this right Fred, but I don't believe this is the
petition, rather than it is the complaint.

 

Is that correct?

To show how ridiculous this is, just turn it around.  What could you, as a
WISP, do with a gift of $775 in capital per subscriber?  Yeah, a lot more
than they can.  That's a lot of money to a WISP, but bupkis to a subsidy
whore like Century.

I look forward to the Board's response, and if the Petition is open to

[WISPA] Happy Independence Day!

[Victoria Proffer]

Dear Members,

 

It is amazing to be a small business enterprise and be the captain of your
own ship.  

 

I can personally state that sometimes this independence does not always have
smooth sailing and maybe we question our judgment.  But it clearly takes a
"certain" individual or company to become a WISP.  

This is not an 'easy' industry.  Never the less, as the captains of our own
ships, this industry clearly has the drive and "like mindedness" to succeed.


 

In my years in this industry, it is clear that some fail, as well as some
become a sterling example of what I consider my industry is primarily made
of, girt, fortitude, honesty, common sense, gumption, imaginativeness (check
it out, it is a word =), resourcefulness ... oh well, you get the picture =)

 

With that said, I have to make my comment.  

It is one as an individual and not necessarily representing the views of the
board of directors.

 

The Century Link FCC filing is a direct attack on our industry and what our,
sometimes small, enterprises stand for.  

 

The Century Link filing, in my opinion and it has been mentioned, a clear
sign of weakness on their part and shows their dependency on .gov subsidies.
In this aspect is a victory for WISPA!  

 

Yet it is slanderous document that WISPA and the individuals accused must
refute.

 

As an elected member of the WISPA board of directors, I can assure you that
the board is addressing these issues and considers this a priority.

 

I am leaving you with this ... because I am a geek, it is a Marine thing, it
is a favorite, and in this situation it is TOTALLY appropriate!

Well, I may disagree with Mark and some other members of the list on many
political points, but I don't let that get in the way of our mutual
interests. You can disagree without being disagreeable, and concentrate on
collaborating on your mutual interests.  I even disagree on some of the
positions WISPA apparently took.  I think ARRA was a good program, just too
small, though BIP itself was basically a boondoggle.  But a WISP I'm hoping
to get going soon is dependent on BTOP middle mile fiber, as are some other
projects I'm aware of, as is one local government project I'm now working
on.  In some states it's a real game changer.  (And yeah, in some it's
turning out to be a disaster, but that's a different story.)

But the key point is that no matter how you feel about the way the game is
being played in Washington, either you participate, or you should stop
complaining about it.  For the average person, participation is as easy as
voting; for a business in a regulated industry, it may involve a lot more.

Things used to work better there in the past when both sides could sit down
and negotiate their differences, trading off with each other until the best
compromise could be met.  People who believe that compromise is inherenty
bad are preventing progress, and they aren't making things better for their
side either. Likewise, all of that "government is always the problem" talk
is not realistic.  There are all sorts of things that you need government to
do, from enforcing contracts (lest you need a mafia take over that role, as
happened in Russia in the 1990s), to building public infrastructure, to
keeping the food and water safe.  You don't miss the water until the well
runs dry; if you don't want government, try Somalia.  If you don't agree
with our government, then at least try to make yourself heard.  Even if it
is so corrupted by big money that it sometimes feels like a waste of time.
Reclaim democracy, don't surrender it.

WISPA has done great things in representing the industry.  Things could
certainly be worse.  The FCC has waged a War on ISPs for the past 11 years.
It has killed off most of the wireline ISPs, most of whom were also small
businesspeople playing by the rules.  Some have survived by going wireless,
others by being really really good at what they do and keeping their niche
markets alive, but it hasn't been easy.  Had the rest of the small-ISP
industry organized itself a quarter as well as WISPA has, then things might
have come out a lot differently for them.  Not that CLECs have done so well
either, though frankly I think they were largely collateral damage, because
ISPs depended on them.

Now the FCC has opened up the question of whether and how WISPs and other
ISPs should pay into the Universal Service Fund.  So again the fact that
this group is organized should come in handy.

A few thoughts come to mind:

* Battery backup with 2 or so hours of run time along with a remote page
for a power outage.  Doesn't prevent you from having to dispatch but it
keeps you from having an outage.

* Re-check code?  I don't understand why you need a GFCI outlet inside
your shack.You don't have a sink or other water nearby.  I don't
have GFCI outlets in my office.  Maybe I'm missing something here.

If you are mounting an outdoor NEMA box with your equipment and just
plugging into a GFCI then maybe you can figure out some way to get a
hardwire into the box rather than plugging into an outside GFCI?

The remote reboot power strip does nothing for you if the GFCI outlet or
breaker has tripped, that needs to be reset unless it's an auto reset
device.

[WISPA] Disaster Updates

[Victoria Proffer]

WISPA has created a new list that will serve as the WECAT disaster update
list.

This list will be used for 'event' updates should it be necessary.  

This list will also help in keeping list traffic down for the main WISPA
lists.

Re: [WISPA] [Board] Providing Data to rescue/rebuilding teams during recovery/disaster sites

[Victoria Proffer]

Hi Zach,

 

Because of the type of business WISPs are in, we are potentially in inherent
disaster conditions, mostly because of maintaining tower structures.

And because we specialize in communications, as well as the fact, it is
WISPAs goal to offer WISP centric benefits to our membership, the idea of a
disaster team was born.

 

As Jack and Jay have explained, WISPA is already working on a Disaster
Response Team, but we are at that starting stages.

We have named our organization: WECAT - WISPA Emergency Communications
Action/Alert Team - WECAT.org

This will be a 501 (c) 3 company.  We are almost ready for filing, with the
exception of the Mission Statement.

 

During my last term in office, we started the State Coordinators Committee,
this was a step towards this organization.

We finally have about 80% of the U.S. covered with coordinators, who will in
turn work with the WISPs within their state.

 

Our next meeting we have a representative from the American Red Cross and
the two-way satellite industry that are going to join us so that we can draw
from their pool of knowledge. 

This will be great to help formulate our Standard Operating Procedure (SOP).

 

I would be very interested in talking to this company to see how we could
benefit each other.  

And being a vet, I love veteran owed companies! =)

 

Also, the committee is open and you are welcome to join, just shoot me an
email.

 

This is a very important task, in the formation of this committee, and I
feel very strongly that the sooner we get organized, the better.

Our spring weather patterns have drastically changed and we need to prepare!

 

Respectfully,

Victoria Proffer

Correct. WISPA is already forming an organization to formalize and
coordinate WISPA's disaster response capabilities. 

I think some kind of a tie-in between WISPA's disaster response activities
and Team Rubicon is certainly worthy of developing. I'd suggest contacting
Victoria Proffer (WISPA Board) to discuss this further.

No.  A switch acts as a multiplexer and won't effect your network, but it

Re: [WISPA] OT Network Question

Depends upon if they are smart switches, but generally no.  Switches act as
extension of your network and are not recognized by your router, unless you
have multiple subnets.

I have had to deal with a similar situation.  I talked to the guy and told

Re: [WISPA] 2012 - The End of the Internet

[Victoria Proffer]

The French Government is now blocking sites on the Internet.
http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5j8n3L3F45SLEJwIdAneWFZ5b7a-gD917A3I82French

While I am in favor of getting rid of every child porn site on the net, I am
not in favor of this type of action.  Once it starts, it won't stop.  This
is wrong and needs to be addressed immediately, we don't want our Internet
to become like Chinas' Internet.

*OT - Yep, those Mayans...what a bunch of smart guys!
It is amazing how they could mathematically predict that we would be in a
solar maximum in 2012, also predicting that Jupiter would be on the same
side of the Sun as the Earth and crossing the Earths plane on December 12th
of that year and also seeing that Earth would be transeding through the
Milkyway on that date, a galactic period only seen every 26,000 years...y*ep,
some pretty smart guys!
Heres's a very good article: http://www.viewzone.com/endtime.html
And you can also run simulations at NASA http://space.jpl.nasa.gov/

If my Internet was blocked, I am sure that I would not get sites like the
one above.  The Internet, in America, is about free speech and our rights to
it.  By removing *ANY* groups, what ever they are, blocking my rights to the
US Constitution.

Re: [WISPA] 2012 - The End of the Internet

[Victoria Proffer]

Personally I think we are coming into some scary times.

*The state of New York is now blocking Usenet Groups*:

Verizon offers details of Usenet deletion: alt.* groups, others gone6/12/08

Who wouldn't be against blocking child pornography sites?  But I think once
we start blocking sites we are opening a can of worms.  The Internet is
about free speech in America, it is our inalienable right granted by our
Constitution.  Other countries do not have these rights, such as China, and
they regulate their Internet.

Are the bigger ISPs (AT&T, Verizon, Time Warner, etc.) going to set policy
for the Internet? Are these monopolised ISPs going to be the Internet
police?

If so, how does that effect the smaller ISP's, such as myself?

[WISPA] 2012 - The End of the Internet

[Victoria Proffer]

Could this ever happen?
http://ipower.ning.com/netneutrality2

Of my almost 17 years as an ISP, I find it hard to believe.
How could the LECs possibly block all the sites?
If this is true, what could we do to stop it?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Re: [WISPA] OT - Patrick has left Alvarion

Wow, the Chief Evangelist of BreezeMax err,  Alvarion now retiring or
leaving the company that he helped to successfully build, that is
unbelievable.
Patrick, I know that I am not alone is saying this, you have personally
helped this industry to be become what it is today.  Your passion for this
industry was always obvious in your posts, your lectures, talking with you
over a beer...it will surly be missed.

Good luck in your new endeavors

Re: [WISPA] Sandbagging the levy

[Victoria Proffer]

I believe the 93 flood was called the 100 year flood.
I filled sandbags that year, as well in a town called Sainte Genevieve, MO
(70 miles south of St. Louis).  The National Guard took me on a photo op and
the area was around Kaskaskia Island was totally obliterated.  There were
cows on roofs and houses floating down the Mississippi.  The levee that was
just before the island, that was in the middle of the Mississippi, broke and
sank the entire island.  The area around there has never recovered.
My understanding is that there are now 6 levees that have broke in
Missouri.  My network is on the west side of St. Louis between the Missouri
and Mermac Rivers, I doubt we will see any floods there...but you never
know...
Time to did out the waders and go shovel some sand...

Re: [WISPA] easy voip

[Victoria Proffer]

I live in Missouri and I have one. I have been using it for about two months
and the calls work great, but it occasional crashes my computer.  I also got
one for my sister that lives in California and it is constantly dropping
calls.  So their network might be a little hinky yet.

When I first got mine the ads did not show up, now they are showing up with
more frequency.  Even being ad driven I still don't understand how these
folks are going to make it.

Re: [WISPA] FCC approves new method for tracking broadband's reach

[Victoria Proffer]

Hey don't get me wrong, when I know that the Federal Reserve is a private
banking institute that only a few privileged benefit from its existence, I
have to say that there is room for improvement in this country.  When I
understand the Constitution as it was meant to be understood and then look
at the acts of Congress and the office of the Chief Commander, again I know
that there is room for improvement.

However, this thread is not about that at all, it is about the FCC imposing
certain reporting on ISPs, WISPs, etc. to show where there needs to be room
for improvement in this country.  I have to agree with Scriv on most of
this, but if it is the FCC's intention to shift the change of responsibility
and put a lot of burdensome paperwork on to the ISP, than there needs to be
some sort of compensation.  I don't mean necessarily in a monetary
commitment, but maybe spectrum, tax breaks, etc.

Just my opinion.

pay income tax, have you ever read any of the U.S. code? Why do you think
they want to pass a federal sales tax so bad, cause all this is coming out

type "income tax" on Youtube.

That is why Wesley Snipes is going to jail for 3 years...

Re: [WISPA] Fw: CTIA urges FCC to license -- and auction -- TV white spaces: Daily Update

[Victoria Proffer]

The Wireless Innovative Alliance (http://wirelessinnovationalliance.org/) is
also against the licensing of this spectrum.  Their members consist of
Microsoft, Google, HP, Dell, etc.  They are actively lobbing against it this
and wanting the white space to become unlicensed.

This could be a great organization for WISPA to have an alliance with.

Re: [WISPA] MT tools

[Victoria Proffer]

Since Trango offers SNMP, could it be programmed to work with the MT?
We are using the Dude with our Trangos and that works very well.

Re: [WISPA] Connected Tennessee

[Victoria Proffer]

I like the Broadband Mapping that Virgina Tech is working on:
http://www.ecorridors.vt.edu/maps/broadbandmap.php

I would like to see more of this type of mapping on a national level.  I
have added our WISP to the map and I check back often.  I am encouraged to
see other WISPs listing their services.

[WISPA] Ethernet over Power -- EOP

[Victoria Proffer]

I have encountered 
several MTU's that would use our service, however they would require ethernet 
runs.
 
Has anyone tried 
EOP? Comments?
 
I know that I saw it 
in action, four years ago and was very impressed.
 
Thanks.

The thing growing on the side of V''s head is caused by overuse of the
cellular phone.  Sue the cellular phone company.

Everyone else in the civilized world should bring a class action suit
against  all television and radio transmitting staions, police departments,
airports, airlines, phone companies, utility companies, and last/not least
the Department of Defense for invading their personal spaces with
omnidirectional kilowatt/megawatt transmissions of cancer inducing
RF/Microwave signals.

First, lets get rid of all doppler weather radars for all television
stations.  Next, lets ban the use of radar (weather and navigational) on
every vessel operating on navigable waterways in the United States.

Just to be sure, lets get those GPS satellites out of space, along with the
Direct TV and Dish Network transmitters in space blanketing us with this
evil cancer causing death ray...

Just to be sure, we had better do away with other such evil-doers of the
world such as Citizens Band Radio, 800MHz trunking radio, all cellular
telephone services (digital and analog), 2-way pagers, 900M/2.4G/5.8G
phones, wireless stereo speakers, baby monitors, wireless stereo headphones,

I consider myself to have a little common sense.  If I accept the theory
that WiFi is a danger to the public health, then I have no other choice than
to banish the FCC and make all RF transmission illegal.

How much money would we get back on our taxes next year if the FCC were
abolished and everyone in the FCC were laid off?

The times that I have detected attempted hacks, the source IP has always 
been out of my area. I usually will email a "cease and desist" request 
to the DNS Whois abuse address, and block that address from my firewall. 
If I had a subscriber attempting to break in, I would probably email him 
the logs and ask him what he is trying to do.

Well it appears that Trango has done another flip flop on us.  
I called Electro-Comm this morning to order some FSU's and found that
Electro-Comm, as well as all other Trango resellers are no longer selling
Trango, it is now back to factory direct.

Victoria,

Please don't take this as a personal attack, and like you, I too have some
issues w/ Bullit, but in this matter, I am in 100% agreement with Tom

By now, I believe that the entire industry (WISPs, Vendors, everyone) is
aware of what Part-15 stands for and the latest WISPCON attests that the
"silent majority" has voted with its feet

That said, we need to move beyond our personal egos; if we are to show &
prove to the world that license-exempt WISPs have evolved from the world of
duct-tape, bailing wire and pringles can antennas to building professional
carrier-class networks that are competitive with the incumbents, we need to
act like professionals and take the "higher road" 

Case in point, last week, Jim Patient (Mac couldn't make it unfortunately)
gave a presentation to a standing ovation keynote address to a packed room
of over 250 government officials in North Carolina about WISPA/Mac
Dearman/License-Exempt Wireless Internet's impact on Hurrican Katrina Relief

Now, imagine how it looks when these government officials come check out
WISPA.org, and see in the PUBLIC LIST ARCHIVES that we're bickering over
Bullit this, my network is bigger than your network that, yada yada yada

[WISPA] Part-15

[Victoria Proffer]

Michael,

 

You can ban me from your list, 

I guess that would be ok, not much there any more,  

There are many that have warned me against your list and you
honor.  As well as they have advised me against authoring this email, but
you know me, I a bossy broad, damn ex-Marine.

 

I know not to burn the bridge, but when you kick a person
when they are down….I have no choice but to dump a barrel of coal oil on the
bridge, hopefully, catching my pitty party in the middle.

 

I have been so screwed over….I am carrying lighter
fluid in my vest, as well as several high gain parabolic and TWO five watt amps
and a power converter.

 

LOL, not really, but yours, Michael,  is a bridge I do
need to burn, or get past.  

I have about a half a dozen emails that you claim Part-15 is
a 501.c3. 

Where are the filinings?  

I have checked with the state of Illinois and there have been , from my
understanding, no filings.  

I was told about this years ago, but preferred to respect
your honor than accuse your dignity.

Clearly this is askew.  Part-15.org is NOT A
NON-PROFIT.  It is clear that you take advantage of the “.org”
filing so that you can “bait” newbies to a great party, or it use
to be.

 

Some people tell me never to burn a bridge, or be a ball
buster

HOLD ON…I AM GETTING MY PROPANE…once
you flame, I will aim….

.

Crossing the bridge-à ßburning the bridge.


Done.  

 

Ur…ahhh.

 

BTW, buillit, what did you do in New Orleans?

I know guys that worked, latterly their ass off, brought
equipment, saved their existing network, and basically in general did a damn
good job.   I am really proud of Joe Laura, Jim Patient, MAC
McDermot.  I suspect that, the skinny guy on the Uni was there.

 

BTW, my new email is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(website soon to come). 

I now own the STL network.  

 

Eighteen months and now back to work.

 

Nice to see you guys.

 

Respectfully,

 

Victoria Proffer

Hi V.

 

I remember you sending me the NDA, but going through your
reseller agreement is not what P15 was looking for. P15 only deals directly
with it's suppliers. When we were talking about this, I had mentioned to you
that I was in contact with Vonage, Packet8, etc. You then suggested I look at
Nuvio, which I did. I then contacted them and established a contract with them
(directly).

 

Regarding the statements below, I agree with Brandon, that
if you are not able to meet the Nuvio quota's it may be a good fit for you to
resell P15's (Nuvio) VoIP solutions. We already have a lot of resellers signed
up and P15 is the one with the quota's and not the individual WISPs.

Subject: RE: Part-15.org

Victoria,

Thank you for the update.  Sorry to hear you haven’t
begun marketing the services yet, but I understand how other business
initiatives can take precedence.  

As for P15, I have talked with their Chairman Michael Anderson, and
he says that he never signed up as a subagent for you.  P15 setup a direct
partnership with Nuvio, so any compensation that has been arranged has been
setup between Nuvio and P15.  Michael says that when P15 was looking into
partner programs for VoIP services, that he was contacting Vonage, Packet 8,
and some others.  He said that you used to be a P15 member and had
mentioned to him to check out Nuvio, and he did so, but that you had not been
involved at all in educating him on the services or getting them setup as a
partner, and he never signed up through you.  Michael contacted us
directly, and we performed all the work to get them going.  I even flew
out to their WISPCON event to help educate their attendees on VoIP.  

If you would have been more involved with the process, and got P15
setup as a subagent for your company, then you would be seeing some
revenues.  However, you took a hands off approach, P15 entered into a
direct contract with Nuvio, and therefore you are not entitled to any benefits
of that relationship.  P15 really wouldn’t have been a good fit
selling as a subagent of your organization anyway, so I believe everything
ultimately worked out for the best.  In fact, it may turn out that it is a
better fit for you to become a subagent for P15 with how we have the
partnership worked out.  Ultimately it could mean more revenue sharing for
you if you continue to not be able to meet the goals we have set for our direct
partners.    This consists
