Within the last few weeks, I have gotten several inquiries about setting
up 802.11 wireless access services for thousands (1000-5000) of people
in a conference sort of area (assuming 100% subscription rate, which I
think is sort of unreasonable, but that's another story), and I have
told them
I have heard very polarized reviews of Xirrus in handling high density
networks well or being total garbage.
(Online reviews are awesome, people I know with a lot of 802.11
experience tell me they're garbage, but I'm not sure if it's garbage all
around, or just garbage for what they wanted to
Multiple aps with limited range such that each ap covers a limited section of
the facility.

This company provides the only logical solution for high density, high
availability 802.11X indoor enterprise connectivity that I know of outside
of Cisco.

You cannot do what you are asking unless you have some centralized AP
controller capable of adjusting the RF
You build a system with multiple layers. Very high end backhaul (ptp
wireless, fiber etc.). Then higher end gear like redline for a middle mile
system. Lastly, you use good ap's (MT or StarOS) for distribution.
I'd use a radius authentication mechanism for this. You can then use any

Yeah, but I really want to get a snow cat yet! The new spectrum analyzer (I
now have two of them) and the 65' bucket truck kinda put a damper on such
purchases for a while.
I was ready to buy one though. If' Fluke hadn't told me about Rentelco I
probably would have had to buy one. I'll
Oops. I missed the conference center part of this. I was thinking town
level.
It'll still be a large challenge. I'd be sure to run an abg network.
Hopefully some can use the a to take a load off of the b/g.

And working with the likes of Cisco, Lucent etc.
pretty well guarantees failure.

Marlon, I am afraid I have to disagree with you on this one. There are many
massive deployments (hundreds of APs in one campus) around the world using
both Aruba and Cisco as their 802.11
I have a bunch of used Trango 5300 units with PS and PoE I just pulled
down. If you are interested, please contact me off list.
Thank You,

Hi,
I am interested in any input on 5.4ghz omni directional antennas. I know
there are quite a few different brands and models (PacWireless, Proxim,
Maxrad, etc.) and I am looking for any feedback on what people have
found seems to work better or worse than any others?
thanks,
Travis
Anyone here have any experience with BRS/EDS/MMDS/MDS licensing? I'm in
need of some consultation on a matter. Contact me off-list.

Just curious for some of you old timers like me who have been in the
business since the dialup days. What percentage of your customer base
is still on dialup? I just ran my year-end numbers and it's right
around 20% here. lots of seniors in this area who don't really care to
upgrade. We've
I guess it just depends on your lifestyle if dialup saves you money.
For most people around here, it's cheaper to have my 256 kbit service than
to have a phone line, much less internet service on top of that. Almost
everyone is a cell phone family anymore.

Being fairly new to the industry, I have yet to meet Mac but have read
many Posts and used much of his advice. Is appropriate to share his
home address to the list so that we may shower him with cards and well
wishes. Does someone have that info.

Hmmm, we have somewhere around 600 wireless, 60ish fiber and maybe 100
dialup. Most of the dialups that are left can't get us, only sat service.
I guess your numbers are close to mine.

I was running about 60% broadband and 40% dial up last year. I'm pretty
certain dial up shrunk a lot in the past few months because of the
uselessness of it. But. I almost wish we had more dial up subs.

Thats right Cisco Aruba and Meru are the wireless platforms universities
are using for high density campus networks.
Here's Meru's url. They claim to be the largest 802.11n
Meru isn't just a technology leader. It's also a market leader, with
more operational 802.11n networks worldwide than any
I've heard some pretty bad things about Meru A local university had
them deploy some APs and about a year later, the implementation did not
work. I believe they told them to pack their things and get out.
