[WISPA] SF Earthlink Study
(thank you for your insightful input Ralph) Message: 12 Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2007 17:40:53 -0500 From: "Ralph" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Numbering my responses to Kimo's questions: 1. 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/

Re: [WISPA] Most Common Questions for Tech Support Line ?
Kinda got of the subject there, but I've spent a lot this past year retooling my network, and support has dropped to a very low level. Guess the first thing I woul ask, is if they have rebooted everything, their poe adapter, their router, the pc's. in that order. One major question I learned to ask real fast, like very first, was how many computers and laptops do they have and which one doesn't work. If they say "all", it's one direction and if they say, just my mac, etc, it's end of the story.

RE: [WISPA] IPsec/UDP and my border NAT gateway
Marshall, True IPSec is not NAT friendly. The reason is because the client connects to the VPN Server, whether it was TCP/UDP and says...I want a VPN Connection. The VPN Server, if it is IPSec, will then create a GRE tunnel directly to the client. The reason it won't work via NAT is because you are modifying the headers of the packet at the NAT device, therefore destroying the integrity of the packet because the checksums that are sent through (inside the encrypted tunnel) no longer match the packet. Now, Cisco (and many others) allow for the modification of the header to happen, and ignores the header information. This allows you to NAT the packets to the clients via the Destination NAT rules. You will have to create two rules, one that says DNAT UDP traffic from x.x.x.x port xx to [PUBLIC IP] DNAT to y.y.y.y port xx (use the private IP you are trying to NAT outbound for y.y.y.y). You also need to DNAT (protocol) 47 from x.x.x.x to [PUBLIC IP] DNAT to y.y.y.y. If you do it specifically from the VPN server they are trying to contact, you are still able to do the same IPSec forwarding to other clients. PPTP is Microsoft's answer to NAT and VPN. It is VPN friendly, but it "Supposedly" is less secure...but it is fine for most businesses, and works WELL behind NAT on either end.

Re: [WISPA] calea
My understanding is that the law requires one of three particular protocols/formats and TCPDump is not one of them. And, store and forward is not an option. Dennis Burgess - 2K Wireless wrote: Sounds simple enough. Any MT can stream packets a packet capture device. As far as VPN, that's simple, etc. So, the only thing that it would require is double the customers bandwidth during the time they were monitored. Unless you had a box to store it locally and then ship that off via dvd or something. Just as easy to stream it.

We'll have a lot more info soon. We've also got Kris and Larry working on documentation for us. First, CALEA is NOT a data retention requirement. Do do NOT have to routinely store any customer data in order to be compliant. CALEA is, basically, an electronic wire tap. WE have to be able to surreptitiously intercept a data stream from our customer, copy that to a device, then VPN that data to law enforcement. And ONLY that data. (Unless you are also a voip provider, then you'll have to send the voice stream differently.) You MAY be subpoenaed separately for any log files or other records that you routinely keep in relation to your business. But that's NOT a part of CALEA. The FBI was very clear. THEY aren't to be given the ability to snoop on your whole network as a part of CALEA. YOU have to provide the customer data stream, after you've broken it out from the rest of your data flow. There are already standards in place on what and how to do this for the DSL industry, cable is working on a standard. The conversation was more technical than I can recall word for word, but it sounds like it would be a very very good idea for us to either adopt an existing CALEA standard or develop one for our industry. Anyone care to head up a committee on the topic??? I'll have more to you guys as I get it. Most of the really good stuff will likely be available only to WISPA members though. Certainly the write-up that's being done by the legal beagles will only be available to WISPA membership. laters, Marlon (509) 982-2181 Equipment sales (408) 907-6910 (Vonage)Consulting services 42846865 (icq)And I run my own wisp!
