I can see where that would make sense due to the terrain. The micropops can let you bend and curve your coverage.
Every place needs a solution, that seems to be the one. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, September 25, 2009 1:32 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Micropops Rural-Urban. 7kft mountains with 3kft valleys. Highest tower is currently 1300ft over the valley and links 3 towns + rural. Working on access to a new site 30 miles away (los), 5kft elevation, would link in 4 new towns and adding around 2200sqmiles (about twice the current coverable area). In town its average tree/building density of a suburban area (100ft trees, 35ft houses). Range on the pops is 2 to 6 blocks, depending on trees, houses, etc. Most have los to a primary site, very very few run off another pop. MT is the core hotspot controller. I am working on a new hotspot page for user self registration and signup so no more 3AM calls. I have a mix of hardware but have standardized on MT, StarOS and Ubiquity in my network. I am building a new tower to test out the newest gear from Ubiquity.
