I guess that still depends on the situation. If the landlord is getting 
kickbacks from the cable company for having service in an MDU I call BS. If the 
landlord allows a satellite for TV but not an antenna for Internet I call BS. 
It all depends on the situation.

Maybe all governments speak from both sides of their mouth.  In this case I 
think there's a good reason for it, they say "Landlords, you cannot prohibit 
tenants from having an antenna."  They're not saying, "Landlords, you must let 
John and Adam drill holes in your house", because they straight up can't make a 
mandate like that.

 If you *can* force the landlord to accept your antenna being on their building 
against their will, would you really want to?  You gain $30-50/month, but also 
make a permanent enemy.  IMO, better to just defuse the anger as best you can 
and fix the damage.


So like everything else they are talking out both sides of their mouth. The 
problem becomes, how much aggravation does the landlord want to go through as 
the burden of proof undisputedly lies with them.

Q:  If I live in a condominium or an apartment building, does this rule apply 
to me? 
A:  The rule applies to antenna users who live in a multiple dwelling unit 
building, such as a condominium or apartment building, if the antenna user has 
an exclusive use area in which to install the antenna.  "Exclusive use" means 
an area of the property that only you, and persons you permit, may enter and 
use to the exclusion of other residents.  For example, your condominium or 
apartment may include a balcony, terrace, deck or patio that only you can use, 
and the rule applies to these areas.  The rule does not apply to common areas, 
such as the roof, the hallways, the walkways or the exterior walls of a 
condominium or apartment building.  Restrictions on antennas installed in these 
common areas are not covered by the Commission's rule.  For example, the rule 
would not apply to restrictions that prevent drilling through the exterior wall 
of a condominium or rental unit and thus restrictions may prohibit installation 
that requires such drilling.


Don't think so. The rules are clear that permitted restrictions have to be 
"reasonable" and if there is a "conflict" the burden of proof is on the 
landlord.
 
Further, restrictions cannot violate the impairment clause in section 2.2 i.e. 
may not unreasonable delay or increase costs, or preclude reception or 
transmission of an acceptable quality signal.

OTARD says the landlord can't tell you not to put an antenna on the house.  The 
landlord absolutely *can* tell you not to put holes in his property.  The FCC 
website on the topic spells this out pretty clearly.

 I.E.: OTARD protects you if you can manage to install without any 
penetrations.  This is why you'll see apartment complexes with dishes clamped 
on the deck railings and they make flat coax to go in through a window.  

OTARD rules cover it.
It's s town home so you can mount anywhere on their portion of the building 
including the roof.
If he has an issue with the cable and holes he needs to talk to the renter.
You could also let him know that quality internet service makes his property

If the landlord owns the property, they should ultimately have the final

I get the OTARD argument, but I can guarantee if I was renting a 
townhouse and a tenant didn't ask for permission to mount something to 
the roof and drill holes, not only would the antenna be coming down but 
they'd either be fixing it or out on their asses sans deposit. It would 
definitely be part of the lease agreement.


Personally, I'm of the group that believes you catch more flies with 
honey than vinegar so I would work with the landlord to make it right. 
If you handle things properly, you may actually end up gaining business 
- especially if he/she has other properties and is satisfied with how 
you resolved the issue. I'm betting they are just pissed right now about 
it and will cool off to a more reasonable level in the next few days.

This issue isn’t about OTARD.  It is an issue between the tenant and the 
landlord and you should make this very clear to the landlord.  If the tenant 
called a painter to paint the living room, or Best Buy to mount a TV on the 
wall etc, I highly doubt the landlord would be going after the painter or Best 
Buy.  This situation is no different.

If you did crap work and damaged something, thats a different matter, but if 
you did exactly what the tenant requested and didn’t screw anything else up, 
then it is an issue between the tenant and the landlord.  The Tenant is 
responsible for the property and has a right to utilize the property but that 
isn’t your fight, it is the tenants fight and I wouldn’t even get involved.

So the boss wants me to provide training to the mopes for "level 1" techs
dealing with telco stuff. Primarily for when replacing existing PBX systems

to me, "level 1" is a mope connecting a phone to a prewired jack. If the
jack isnt working and you expect a mope to be the definition of "level 1"
then its not a "level 1" issue at that point.

So I provided some wikipedia articles on POTS and Punchdowns

Re: [AFMUG] Angry landlord over Roof mount antenna

2015-03-17 Thread Travis Johnson
As a previous WISP and now a landlord, I can tell you that I do not 
allow external antennas to be mounted on any of my properties without 
written approval, and one of my people there to supervise the installation.


You can claim OTARD or FCC or whatever other rules you want, but the 
landlord is king when it comes to these kind of issues. We can 
"motivate" the tenant in other ways. It's not worth having a tenant do 
thousands of dollars of damage to a property so they can have internet.


Painting an inside wall or hanging a TV is completely different than 
drilling holes in a roof or siding. At the end of the day, the landlord 
is still the property owner and has all power with that property.

Elevate the front line of every position.  It's hard for us to have a level 1, 
2, 3 when we only have four people total doing installs.  All of them need to 
be at a certain minimum and we need to keep increasing that minimum level of 
knowledge.  Training is easier said than done though.  Also, I know that my 
system admin doesn't really like to teach, but he has to do it one way or 
another and he really isn't that bad at it.  Opinions aside, I think we're 
going to require our "tier 1" support guys to pass a Net+ cert at a minimum, 
and possibly get into Mikrotik certs and that as well.  The same goes for our 
field techs.  Previously everything we've done was internal training but we're 
busy too.  Within reason, as the company grows, what our system admin did 5 
years ago, our front line guys need to at least be familiar with now because 
the system admin is working on much more complex stuff these days.

a tenant didn't ask for permission to mount something to the roof and drill 
holes, not only would the antenna be coming down but they'd either be fixing it 
or out on their asses sans deposit. It would definitely be part of the lease

Maybe all governments speak from both sides of their mouth. In this case I 
think there's a good reason for it, they say "Landlords, you cannot prohibit 
tenants from having an antenna." They're not saying, "Landlords, you must let 
John and Adam drill holes in your house", because they straight up can't make a 
mandate like that. 

If you *can* force the landlord to accept your antenna being on their building 
against their will, would you really want to? You gain $30-50/month, but also 
make a permanent enemy. IMO, better to just defuse the anger as best you can 
and fix the damage. 




So like everything else they are talking out both sides of their mouth. The 
problem becomes, how much aggravation does the landlord want to go through as 
the burden of proof undisputedly lies with them.

That's a lot more difficult to fix and I've heard you talk about it before.  No 
easy answer and sometimes people are not the best fit and it's time for new 
staff members if they truly do not fit.  Every manager has complaints about 
their staff at times.  I had no formal management training but have read pretty 
much every Patrick Lencioni book out there and I think it was helpful in 
starting to turn things around.  Since, I've read a bunch of other books as 
well.  My neighbor is a Fire Fighter / EMT for a Chicago suburb and was taking 
his Lieutenant test earlier this month and said part of the required reading 
was the book, It's Your Ship.  I haven't read it, yet, but he said it was good 
stuff.  I guess you can only do so much, but people can turn around with the 
right encouragement, engagement, and leadership.  I don't know anything about 
your specific situation but those books helped me get more out of my staff 
anyway.  As Keefe just said, we are now using Top Grading as well since Nathan 
recommended it a few shows ago.  Also Traction is good stuff as well.

also weeds out the rest of the bad people.

Re: [AFMUG] Angry landlord over Roof mount antenna

2015-03-17 Thread Ken Hohhof
It would be different if your installer broke a window with the ladder or 
something.  Then you have the landlord get an estimate from his window guy for 
repairing it and as long as it’s not outrageous you pay it or send it to your 
insurance company.  But if you did a professional installation, his issue is 
with the tenant.  If the tenant wants it de-installed, do a professional 
de-install, i.e. leave the J-pipe foot on the roof and caulk the hole the cable 
went through.  If the landlord wants new shingles and siding, he should take 
that up with the tenant, or have his roofer and siding guy fix it and take it 
out of the tenant’s damage deposit.

  I get the OTARD argument, but I can guarantee if I was renting a 
townhouse and a tenant didn't ask for permission to mount something to the roof

fixing it or out on their asses sans deposit. It would definitely be part of 
the lease agreement.

  Personally, I'm of the group that believes you catch more flies with 
honey than vinegar so I would work with the landlord to make it right. If you

Maybe all governments speak from both sides of their mouth.  In this 
case I think there's a good reason for it, they say "Landlords, you cannot 
prohibit tenants from having an antenna."  They're not saying, "Landlords, you 
must let John and Adam drill holes in your house", because they straight up 
can't make a mandate like that.

If you *can* force the landlord to accept your antenna being on their 
building against their will, would you really want to?  You gain $30-50/month, 
but also make a permanent enemy.  IMO, better to just defuse the anger as best 
you can and fix the damage.


  So like everything else they are talking out both sides of their 
mouth. The problem becomes, how much aggravation does the landlord want to go 
through as the burden of proof undisputedly lies with them.

You can claim OTARD or FCC or whatever other rules you want, but
the landlord is king when it comes to these kind of issues. We can
"motivate" the tenant in other ways. It's not worth having a
tenant do thousands of dollars of damage to a property so they can
have internet.

Painting an inside wall or hanging a TV is completely different
than drilling holes in a roof or siding. At the end of the day,
the landlord is still the property owner and has all power with

and drill holes, not only would the antenna be coming down but they'd either be 
fixing it or out on their asses sans deposit. It would definitely be part of 
the lease agreement.

Personally, I'm of the group that believes you catch more flies with 
honey than vinegar so I would work with the landlord to make it right. If you 
handle things properly, you may actually end up gaining business - especially 
if he/she has other properties and is satisfied with how you resolved the 
issue. I'm betting they are just pissed right now about it and will cool off to 
a more reasonable level in the next few days.

  Maybe all governments speak from both sides of their mouth.  In this 
case I think there's a good reason for it, they say "Landlords, you cannot 
prohibit tenants from having an antenna."  They're not saying, "Landlords, you 
must let John and Adam drill holes in your house", because they straight up 
can't make a mandate like that.

  If you *can* force the landlord to accept your antenna being on their 
building against their will, would you really want to?  You gain $30-50/month, 
but also make a permanent enemy.  IMO, better to just defuse the anger as best 
you can and fix the damage.


So like everything else they are talking out both sides of their 
mouth. The problem becomes, how much aggravation does the landlord want to go 
through as the burden of proof undisputedly lies with them.

I can't really comment on the Purewave picking up interference from 
Ubiquiti since I don't use a great deal of it.


I do know of a competitor that claimed they started having interference 
issues when we installed a 450 3.65 SM at the same location they had 
what I think was a Ubiquiti 5.7 AP at.   Perhaps it was a 3.65 Ubiquiti 
AP but the FCC registration database doesn't show them having any 3.65 
gear for miles.

Right, regardless of who is ultimately liable, you're probably going to
have to work it out with the landlord either by fixing it, or by convincing
him (or maybe a court) that it's the tenants responsibility.

Re: [AFMUG] Question on interference

2015-03-17 Thread Ken Hohhof
Ubiquiti does make some 3.65 gear so maybe double check the new guy is not 
using any of it.  If that’s the case, the Purewave guy should make sure he is 
in the upper 25 MHz where UBNT can’t go.

Another possibility is the PW guy is counting on working with really low signal 
levels like –90 dBm and he is picking up enough 5 GHz from the new guy to make 
that impossible.  Either the UBNT stuff could have high enough OOBE into 3.65, 
or the 5 GHz from the UBNT could be hot enough that the PW receiver is getting 
overloaded.  If it’s the latter, the PW guy might need some 3.65 bandpass 
filters.

Then there are less likely explanations like PIM.

Re: [AFMUG] Angry landlord over Roof mount antenna

2015-03-17 Thread Chuck Macenski
I am not a lawyer and have never played one on TV.

This is just a question.

If I hire someone to cut down a tree, I would seem to be implicitly saying
to the cutter that I have the right to ask them to cut the tree down.

If they cut the tree down but don't have permission of the owner, it would
seem that the cutter of the tree is responsible to the owner.

If the tree cutter was intentionally mislead that I had the right to cut
the tree down, seems like the tree cutter could come after me.

Does this sound right?

Installing a J-mount (drilling holes in a roof) and cable penetration 
(drilling a hole in the side of the house) is DEFINITELY damage to the 
property. Any warranty on the roof becomes null and void unless a 
certified roofer does the work and certifies the install. Drilling a 
hole through the siding and house is also damage.

Tell that to Comcast or century link. 

I as a landlord and a WISP owner am conflicted on this. I don't think the ISP 
should be held responsible unless they did a shady job. The renter needs to 
know the rules of the place. The ISP should always ask if they are the owner of 
the place. If the renter says they are the owner, wether they signed something 
or not, then the renter is responsible.

I disagree with you about what is damage. If it's done correctly it's not 
damage. Otherwise when they install any piping for the bathrooms or kitchen 
would be damage. 

If it's done professionally then everything is sealed and no warranty is 
voided...unless you're dealing with a shady builder.

I'm pretty any changes you make to someone else's property could be
considered damage unless it's normal wear and tear. The fact is, it's going
to cost the landlord money if he wants it put back to the original
condition, it might not be reasonable in most people opinion to put it back
to the original condition, but I see no reason he wouldn't have the right
it... who is responsible is another matter, but I don't think you can
really argue there was no damage.

Exactly. This is one of those things where people's opinions don't mean a damn. 
Once holes were made, opinions are moot and the law kicks in because contracts

Installing a J-mount (drilling holes in a roof) and cable penetration (drilling 
a hole in the side of the house) is DEFINITELY damage to the property. Any 
warranty on the roof becomes null and void unless a certified roofer does the 
work and certifies the install. Drilling a hole through the siding and house is

Re: [AFMUG] Angry landlord over Roof mount antenna

2015-03-17 Thread Harold Bledsoe
Looks like the FCC already comments on this:

Q:  Are there restrictions that can be placed on residents of rental
property?

A:  Yes.  A restriction necessary to prevent damage to leased property may
be reasonable.  For example, tenants could be prohibited from drilling
holes through exterior walls or through the roof.  However, a restriction
designed to prevent ordinary wear and tear (e.g., marks, scratches, and
minor damage to carpets, walls and draperies) would likely not be
reasonable provided the antenna is installed wholly within the antenna
user's own exclusive use area.  In addition, rental property is subject to
the same protection and exceptions to the rule as owned property.  Thus, a
landlord may impose other types of restrictions that do not impair
installation, maintenance or use under the rule.  The landlord may also
impose restrictions necessary for safety or historic preservation.

So NPRM + a window sounds like the other options besides concrete bucket in
the yard.

By the way, I had a concrete bucket on my patio in one of my early
apartments for directv just for this reason.  :-)

Most owners of residential rental property worry more about the tenant using it 
as a meth lab or grow house or “party house”.

You folks must live in a very upscale neighborhood if a J-pipe foot on the roof 
and a nicely caulked up 1/4 inch hole in the siding is a huge damage problem 
requiring that roofers and siding contractors be called to install all new

I'm pretty any changes you make to someone else's property could be considered 
damage unless it's normal wear and tear. The fact is, it's going to cost the 
landlord money if he wants it put back to the original condition, it might not 
be reasonable in most people opinion to put it back to the original condition, 
but I see no reason he wouldn't have the right it... who is responsible is 
another matter, but I don't think you can really argue there was no damage.

  Installing a J-mount (drilling holes in a roof) and cable penetration 
(drilling a hole in the side of the house) is DEFINITELY damage to the 
property. Any warranty on the roof becomes null and void unless a certified 
roofer does the work and certifies the install. Drilling a hole through the

Don't get me wrong, if I was the landlord I certainly wouldn't consider it

In my opinion, it's the tenants responsibility anyway, since we're only

It seems that OTARD was intended more to deal with HOA BS than tenant rights. 
Thankfully I have never had to deal with it. Thankfully I never intend to 
become a rental tenant again. As far as the WISP is concerned, I would think 
this would be a matter to turn over to whoever underwrites their liability 
insurance and let them argue with the landlord about what constitutes damage.

450 3.65 works like you would expect something between 2.4 and 5.7 to 
work.   Some NLOS capabilities but nothing amazing.


320 (and all WIMAX) was in my experience unpredictable.  It would work 
in some places that seemed impossible and not work in others that 
absolutely should have been fine.   450 3.65 is more predictable - you 
can usually look at what is in the way and say 'yeah - that should work'.


I put a 450 3.65 AP up right next to a 320 AP and tried to swap all the 
customers.   Some worked, some didn't.  At this point I'm waiting for 
summer and all the trees before trying to figure out what to do about 
the customers I can't swap over.

This, respectfully, is a view centered on limited experience. Discussing range 
in exclusion of product and only as a function of frequency, is, well, wrong. 
Lots of other things come in to play, from power to specs. The 320 beats the 
450 in NLOS for reasons explained by basic math, better power and sensitivity, 
for example. For the same reason, we beat both.

Second, re "WiMAX" being inconsistent, I'll bet you've never used real WiMAX 
Mark. the 320 and Purewave were BOTH proprietary spins on WiMAX. They were no 
more WiMAX than UBNT is straight Wi-Fi. There were many BreezeMAX WiMAX users 
who experienced rock solid consistency.

5ms frame is correct and a 13.4 beta build (though the 13.4 build 
doesn't change RF).

450 3.65 works like you would expect something between 2.4 and 5.7
to work.   Some NLOS capabilities but nothing amazing.

320 (and all WIMAX) was in my experience unpredictable.  It would
work in some places that seemed impossible and not work in others
that absolutely should have been fine.   450 3.65 is more
predictable - you can usually look at what is in the way and say
'yeah - that should work'.

I put a 450 3.65 AP up right next to a 320 AP and tried to swap
all the customers.   Some worked, some didn't.  At this point I'm
waiting for summer and all the trees before trying to figure out
what to do about the customers I can't swap over.

Except I would expand the statement to all NLOS products, ever.

The damn SM bridge table still doesn't work on v2.4.

I cannot save my GUI login info. This is very annoying.

You need to figure out a way for the AP date/time to be propagated down 
to the SMs like Canopy.


I need AP>SM GUI proxy like Canopy. Needed it today, didn't have it.

The GUI is beautiful, but is still slow. At least the traffic graph is

Oh, and the fact that you can't highlight a field (like the IP Address)

really mean to highlight it, and appends what you entered before the

[AFMUG] info from customer - Upgrade to service - Customer #8 is HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!

2015-03-17 Thread CBB - Jay Fuller

so.KUDOS to the cambium team.  we've rolled epmp 2.4 on two of our most 
populated towers and now that the weather is better, we're upgrading folks who 
have been on a list.

"MIKE MIKE MIKE" is "HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY".

Of course, we went with the 2.4 EPMP for a few goals:

1)  good reviews from other WISPS
2)  the ability to sync
3)  we thought it might be a good platform to move customers that are 1-2 miles 
out on from the 900 mhz PMP100 platform

see below

oh, prince of broadband.that's our highest package.  as much data as the 
radio can move and uncapped.  "Dave" said the customer was getting 25 meg down 
- an upgrade from the 3 meg he's been getting.  This is not a cheap package.

Re: [AFMUG] More ePMP gripes

2015-03-17 Thread Vince West
I don't have too much trouble with the web pages. However, I only view them
on my desktop. Rarely do I use a laptop, if that makes any difference. The
upgrade time for the firmware is indeed a pain. And I can sympathize with
the inability to highlight the fields and start typing. It gets me every
time.

We do a rather bare bones config on the radios though. I am also not a fan
of one user logged in at a time. It makes troubleshooting with another tech
across the office inconvenient as one of us has to move from our desk. I
know that sounds lazy, but it's much easier to answer the question over the
phone than having to get up every time a tech has a question.

good dealunderstand it's all still in beta but hopefully it'll just get

assuming you have a wireless router, what channel is it on?
the new radio uses 2.4 ghz which most wireless routers use.
have to watch that closely.

[AFMUG] ePMP 2 GHz deployments

2015-03-17 Thread Josh Luthman
I'm curious to know what everyone is using for 2 GHz sectors.  Primarily
linear vs slant but also OEM vs aftermarket sectors.

PS.  I heard through the grapevines that the (integrated) CPEs can do slant
and linear.  Is this true?  Is there no loss in signal regardless of your
AP/Sector being 90*/45*?  If the patch antenna can do both, doesn't that
mean it isn't focusing on one or the other and had to compromise?

Oh, and the fact that you can't highlight a field (like the IP 
Address) and start typing to overwrite it.  It just decides that you 
didn't really mean to highlight it, and appends what you entered 
before the existing string.  Then complains that it's not a valid IP 
Address.

I cannot save my GUI login info. This is very annoying.

You need to figure out a way for the AP date/time to be propagated 
down to the SMs like Canopy.


I need AP>SM GUI proxy like Canopy. Needed it today, didn't have it.

The GUI is beautiful, but is still slow. At least the traffic graph 
is fixed.
