Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
Our entire user base is based on customers needing to buy a router since we run all of our CPE's in bridge mode. Just not enough processing power to be running other services on them. People don't like the initial $50 to go get a router before we get there but we make it up when they get installed and love the service. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Butch Evans Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2009 3:15 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles On Tue, 2009-11-17 at 00:02 -0500, Kurt Fankhauser wrote: That's the only thing that kept me from loosing my insanity.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
If the CPEs are bridged and customers own the router, how do you protect your network from people entering invalid or duplicate Ips or other nasty things that they might do?

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
I run everything client in as a router (no nat) and have a central nat server. no pesky nat tables at the client end, or my end (MT, 1gb ram, 1.2ghz p3) and never sees more then ~15% cpu. AP's run in bridged mode for that few extra cycles, with a MT behind em.

[WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
OK, strange stuff today. Had a customer that's been complaining about intermittent connection issues. The other day I went out there and moved him from g mode to b mode. Adjusted the power levels and such and things ran much better. He's getting 4 megs by 4 megs pretty consistently. He called again, a few days later and he's having trouble again. I finally had time to get back there today. Hooked up my computer and ran all the tests I normally do. No problems at all. Hooked up the Linksys (and his computers) and bang, down it goes. Disconnected his laptop and it starts working again. Hook his up, down the link goes. Here's the strange part, I could always ping the public IP on the radio, and so could a person outside of my network. So the RF part was working fine, but we still couldn't get traffic through the radio. Eventually I figured out that with him disconnected and me wired to the Linksys I could consistently duplicate the outage by opening MySpace. Or some Fox News sites. I upgraded the firmware on both the radio and the router, same problem existed. I ended up turning the radio into a bridge and BAM, off everything went. And the customer INSTANTLY noticed that things ran faster too. For years I avoided running radios as routers because You'll never put as good of a router into a radio as I can put behind it. sigh Looks like I was right about that, again. grin So, if you are seeing strange, unexplainable things at some customers try bridging instead of routing on your cpe devices. laters, marlon WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
This is a KNOWN problem with CPQ/SL2 radios that run NAT. Tranzeo blames having too many connections running bitorent, etc etc. But even on machines without running P2P software this problem still persists. They say that the NAT tables get full. I brought this up almost 6 months ago in a thread titled Latest Tranzeo Firmware = Broken NAT back around June, 9th 2009 on this list if you want to look at the back logs. Tranzeo never did fix the problem, they came out with version 4.0.5 which they say was specifically for this and it didn't fix it completely. Been talking to a few other WISPS and have confirmed that they are seeing it too. That's the only thing that kept me from loosing my insanity. To date they and I are doing the same thing, which is switching customers to bridge mode as they complain. I told Tranzeo that it was this problem and them not fixing it which was the reason I was not going to do their 3.65ghz gear. Kurt Fankhauser WAVELINC P.O.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
I can confirm that the new firmware didn't fix this. It was a LITTLE bit better with the firmware that I downloaded TODAY. But we could still lock up the radio at will. NO ptp applications open. Just open 2 or three sites like youtube or fox news (something common with more than one user in a house) and down the link would go. I'm the same way on the 3650 gear from Tranzeo. I've had such a bad time with the AP's I'm afraid to try anything new that they make. Especially because they seem to have a habit of blaming things on everyone else. If they have a product that was built with too little ram or whatever in it, I can deal with that. Just tell me that the product won't do what I want it to do, then point me to the one you have that will do what I want it to do. Or at least just tell me I'm out of luck for now. At least then I'll not bother selling things to my customers that don't work right! There's NOTHING worse than ruining one's reputation by providing bad service.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo Troubles
Marlon, I lost about a half dozen customers because of this issue before I knew what the problem was. Many tower climbs replacing CPE's in the dead of winter just to have the problem persist and customer eventually leaving. All could have been fixed by switching them to Bridge mode but now I'm out some good monthly revenue because of it. I will confirm that the TR-6000/6500/6600 series radio's run NAT flawless. Probably because of more onboard RAM. But who's gonna spend $250+ for those when the SL2's are supposed to do the same thing (client mode) for sub $100 Not gonna lie, I'm pretty mad about this issue still... Kurt Fankhauser WAVELINC P.O.
