As much as I'd like to stay with those devices, lack of a second SSID
for guests for example, is becoming a problem.  I had 3 people in the
last 2 weeks ask for this feature and I don't disagree with them.  Come

The one we saw was a test question to a college student who had to
answer whether Hell was exothermic or endothermic.

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase
until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes
over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year
that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,' and take
into account the fact that I slept with her the next night, then number
two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has
already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has
frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is
therefore extinct...leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the
existence of a divine being which explains why Teresa kept shouting 'Oh
my God.'

They work fantastic for jobs like this.  Honestly, unless you plan to use it a 
*lot* get the corded version too.  The battery versions (well, the *cheap* 
model I have) are pathetic for battery life IMO.  And, if like me, for odd jobs 
where you need such a tool, you can probably suffer an extension cord.

Depending on scale, if you can afford a few cross connects and the exchange 
port, I'd almost recommend peering with HE (along with the others on the 
exchange) and saving your dollars to purchase something nicer. The exchange 
will take care of your Akamai, FaceBook, Google, NetFlix, Microsoft, HE, etc. 
HE and Cogent have big and growing networks, but they are also the easiest of 
the big operators to peer with. You'll get customer routes (which is growing), 
which may chop out a lot of your traffic.

Re: [AFMUG] security system with still camera capture

2014-12-11 Thread Rory Conaway via Af
It’s for covering a park and has to have prosecutorial evidence at a distance.  
Even HD cameras aren’t high enough resolution considering the distance and area 
of coverage.  I need a high pixel count for that.  I’d rather grab pictures at 
5 seconds if possible but I think that’s too fast although I haven’t tested a 
camera with USB 3.0.  My bigger problem is that I need a commercial solution 
but I may have to do a hybrid system.

Using Netflix's 25Mbps for 4k, that works out to 
187.5MB of storage space. At current RAM prices, you can buy a 256MB module for 
$15 full retail... so places like Samsung can probably buy them in quantity for 
less than $2. Seems like it would be worth it to pay an extra $10 for a

But on my network it tends to burst to 90Mbps 
then sit around for a while, then burst back to 90Mbps.

Not really a system but Axis cameras do this internally. I have mine set to 
capture a series of stills on motion along with recording video in parallel. 
The stills are easy to scan through then you can go back and look at the video 
if needed.

I haven't specifically tried it, but it does have a frames per minute 
option for still captures. I would expect if you set it to 12 on a continuously 
active rule that it would output a JPEG every 5 seconds.

Hey,

Not sure if people saw this already, but Rick Harnish, the executive
director of WISPA, announced he is stepping down at the end of January.
He didn't give any other information, other than he was thankful for being
part of WISPA over the last many years.

Rick did many great things for WISPA, and I wish him the best of luck in his
next endeavor. When he became the ED for WISPA almost 4 years ago, there
were only 200 members. Today there are over 830 members, and the group now
has enough money and influence to actually make a difference with the FCC
and other government groups.

I always enjoyed seeing Rick at the shows, and I know he will be missed.
Good luck to you Rick. :)

[AFMUG] security system with still camera capture

Unlike some vendors, I think they are just taking their time on the
firmware to make sure it's right.  It's kind of a damned if you do,
damned if you don't scenario.  If you remember, it took several Ubiquiti
quite a long time on the M series to get past some chipset features and
the Quantenna chipset is pretty new.  They are blazing the trail here
the same as the Cambium products.  Remember the delays on the 450 due to
hardware?  At this point I only get annoyed if I don't know if there is
any progress like AirControl or the 12 month old Beta firmware on
AirGateways.  Considering I'm using boatloads of them, I'd like to see
it come out of Beta someday.

Change the oil in the parking lot of Ford manufacturing next time and tell them 
to quit doing stupid designs like this.  When basic maintenance like changing 
an alternator means lifting the engine block off the mounts or it takes 8 hours 
to change a power steering pump, that’s a stupid design.  That’s why Taurus 
owners get rid of their cars when they get out of warranty.  Think about how 
many 1996-2005 Ford Taurus’s you see on the road.  It’s why I don’t by front 
wheel drive cars but I don’t have to deal with snow.

I have one at home to play with. I generally like it but for now you can only 
support and manage it with an Android or iOS app with no cloud support... yet. 
They say it is coming so we can manage multi-site and remotely like UniFi but 
for now you have to be on the layer2 network with the AP's to configure them. 
Performance seems similar to UniFi but there are added improvements like auto 
channel scan and band steering and some QOS built-in. 

 

There is very little that can be configured yet. You can select channel but not 
channel size and the auto channel selection has caused a few issues with packet 
loss while the channels change but once it scans the entire band, it is very 
stable. We get 20% off by buying through a reseller so followup with Xclaim on 
who their preferred distributor is.

Sorry I misspoke.  They don’t own the spectrum, but they file the 602 with the 
spectrum holder.

 

Similar to leasing spectrum in 38GHz, etc.  Each transmit site (CPE or AP) has 
to be registered like 3.65GHz.

 

Anyways the process typically takes 48 hours max.

back to AP on bank building and another antenna with AP used to cover

Hi,

This is why we just included a free WiFi router with all of our 
installations. It wasn't a separate item on their bill, it was just part of our 
service. Then we had control of the router, and could actually test clear to 
the router from our NOC. The customers liked it because they didn't have to 
worry about the router, and when it failed we just replaced it, no charge.

Again... customer service is what wins the day. :)

I really question if customers want a device to help them troubleshoot. 
 More like if we (a bunch of network admins) were the customer, that’s what 
we’d want.  It’s like the guys on Big Bang Theory trying to imagine what a 
regular person would want.

 

The hurdle seems to be getting them to pay someone to fix problems in 
their internal network.  If you can monetize this by selling an onsite support 
plan, or by dispatching from a separate side of your business that charges for 
service calls, that is good, as long as you can say this is not an Internet 
service problem, it is a customer network problem.  Otherwise, refer them to a 
local computer shop that does house calls.

 

What amazes me is the reluctance to pay us $5/mo for a managed Mikrotik 
router that comes with free replacement, phone support and onsite support.  All 
of a sudden it’s not so interesting to have us solve the problem for them.  Yet 
they will go to Best Buy and let the kid talk them into a $200 Linksys AC 
router as the solution to all their problems.  I guess that points back to me 
being a poor salesman compared to the kid at Best Buy.  Probably because I know 
the managed router is a good deal for the customer, so if they don’t want it, 
I’m only going to push it so hard.  While Best Buy makes tons more money on a 
$200 router than they do on a $50 router and doesn’t give a rat’s ass what’s 
good for the customer, so they sell the hell out of the expensive router.  And 
people like going to stores and buying cool gadgets.  Maybe I need to rub some 
“new car smell” on the Mikrotik routers or something.

 

So I guess if your proposed gizmo has a “new car smell” or “latest 
iPhone” aura to it, people might buy it.  Just make sure that red light doesn’t 
have false detects, or it will just make people complain their Internet is down 
because the red light is on.

Yeah we put a little thought into ours on that behalf. 
The customer will have to go to the trouble of signing up for these 
alerts and it will only show alerts associated with their tower or CPE.
Even any scheduled work being done on that site.
Alerts for outages on their connection only is all that will be 
displayed.
We are not doing this for anyone on our FSK network only the 450 net.
We already have the Portal for billing.

Understood. It’s the letter, not the lawsuit, that does the work. Oh crap, we 
got a letter from his lawyer, can we just settle this?

Just like with Title II regulation, it’s the paperwork, not the actual rules, 
that would kill us.

From a practical standpoint though, many people decide one day to search for 
Internet service, and start calling around. You may have been sending out 
flyers for months, but this is your tiny window of opportunity to sell them 
your service. The window may just be a few hours, we’ve all had the case where 
you return voicemail in 30 minutes and the customer already ordered from the 
next ISP they called and signed a 2 year contract, so you lost the sale.

So I think the answer “let me meet with the landlord or HOA or city and tell 
them about OTARD” is not going to be a successful sales technique except in a 
few situations like:

- You are truly the only game in town

- There is a large potential customer base that you can open up going forward 
by overcoming one obstacle now (like a subdivision or apartment complex or even 
a whole city)

- This is a high value (commercial) customer and they are willing to wait a few 
weeks or months to get your service

[AFMUG] Points to Ponder

2014-11-12 Thread Rory Conaway via Af
There are many ways to look at a problem.  

 

 

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD??

SARAH PALIN: The chicken crossed the road because, Gosh darn, he's a
maverick.

BARACK OBAMA:  Let me be perfectly clear, if the chickens like their
eggs, they can keep their eggs. Period.  No chicken will be required to
cross the road to surrender her eggs. Period.

JOHN McCAIN:  My friends, the chicken crossed the road because he
recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the
chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON:  What difference at this point does it make why the
chicken crossed the road?

GEORGE W. BUSH: We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road.
We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not.
The chicken is either with us or against us.  There is no middle ground
here.

DICK CHENEY:  Where's my gun?

COLIN POWELL:  Now, to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the
satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.

BILL CLINTON:  I did not cross the road with that chicken.

AL GORE:  I invented the chicken.

JOHN KERRY:  Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am
against it.

AL SHARPTON:  Why are all the chickens white?

DR. PHIL:  The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize
that he must first deal with the problem on this side of the road before
it goes  after the problem on the other side of the road.  What we need
to do is help him realize how stupid he is acting by not taking on his
current problems before adding any new problems.

OPRAH WINFREY:  Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems,
which is why he wants to cross the road so badly.  So, instead of having
the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of
life, I'm going to buy this chicken a new car so that he can just drive
across the road and not live his life in fear like the rest of the
chickens.

ANDERSON COOPER:  We have reason to believe there is a chicken,but we
have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

NANCY GRACE:  That chicken crossed the road because he is guilty!  You
can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.

PAT BUCHANAN:  To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

MARTHA STEWART:  No one called me to warn me which way the chicken was
going.  I had a standing order at The Farmer's market to sell my eggs
when the price dropped to a certain level.  No little bird gave me any
insider information.

DR. SEUSS;  Did the chicken cross the road?  Did he cross it with a
toad?  Yes, the chickn crossed the road, but why it crossed, I've not
been told.

EARNEST HEMINGWAY:  To die in the rain, alone.

GRANDPA:  In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road.
Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road and that was good enough
for us.

BARBARA WALTERS:  Isn't that interesting?  In a few moments we will be
listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming
story of how it experienced a serious case of molting and went on to
accomplish its lifelong dream of crossing the road.

ARISTOTLE:  It is the nature of the chicken to cross the road.

JOHN LENNON:  Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads
together, in peace.

BILL GATES:  I have just released e-Chicken 2014, which will not only
cross roads but will lay eggs, file your important documents and balance
your checkbook.  Internet Exploreris an integral part of e-Chicken 2014.
This new platform is much more stable and will never reboot.

ALBERT EINSTEIN:  Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road
move beneath the chicken?

COLONEL SANDERS:  Did I miss one??

But people are not looking for us to help them lawyer up and fight their

providing them service without an outdoor antenna.

 

This is probably more of an issue in town, we are more rural.  But HOA 
covenants aside, many people will be on the opposite side of the building from 
the tower.  And even OTARD doesn’t let you put an antenna on common areas, only 
the areas for your exclusive use like a balcony.  So there will always be some 
demand for indoor CPE, probably not a ton though.  And as people have noted, 
Mimosa seems optimistic about how well this will work.

While you certainly can contract away certain rights, this isn’t one of them.  
It’s like trying to contract with your employee that you will give him a 1099 
or not pay him overtime.  Your employee an sign it, but you can’t enforce it.

 

OTARD trumps any contract laws that purport to force some other regime.  
There’s still quite a bit of confusion out there on this among HOAs, 
surprisingly.  A local government, HOA, neighborhood association, etc. can’t 
enforce a covenant that impairs the installation, maintenance or use of 
antennas covered by OTARD (and yours are) in “exclusive use” areas.  Many 
(most?) HOAs have long since fixed their covenants so that the restrictions 
apply only to common areas (like a roof of a multiunit condo building) or only 
when there’s some common antenna for use.

 

You have to look at the covenant, but I would be very surprised if you couldn’t

Bad example.  The agreement wasn’t to do something illegal like kill someone.

 

You can agree not to paint your house purple, not to have kids (retirement 
community), etc. in order to live there.

 

In any case, it’s a “how many angels can dance on the head of the pin” 
argument, the bottom line is these people wanted an indoor CPE and liked the 
WiMAX ones they got from Open Range.  But I think a mobile hotspot would 
probably serve the purpose, not sure what kind of usage cap Open Range had.

 

Also I think most of us get the people who don’t want our service because they 
don’t want an outdoor antenna for whatever reason and can’t understand why we 
have to put it outside, after all we’re “wireless”.  So there is at least some 
demand for indoor CPE.  Whether the Mimosa product actually works as claimed is 
another matter.  And even in 900 MHz, the Canopy indoor CPE was a poor enough 
seller they discontinued it.

When Open Range went poof, we got several calls from people in townhomes who

OTARD was no use because they had signed a covenant.

This is going to have limited use the U.S..  Unfortunately , with tax credits 
for certain type of windows and window films, most of our windows don’t work 
well with indoor radios.  We did a test one day and found that it was easier to 
get the signal through red brick than the window it surrounded.  

 

However, we have been installing 2.4GHz radios in windows in pre-built homes 
very successfully since they don’t have tinting.

 

On another note, it’s also why you don’t want to put your radar detector on the 
top of the windshield.

This is better than previous attempts in that it's a beamforming antenna on the 
CPE. It shapes the beam to point at the best signal it sees.

Come guys.  Remember the statement that 20% of Ubiquiti’s sales are in the 
U.S.?  Mimosa is in California so I’m fairly sure they know what a tinted

[AFMUG] FCC article on Fox News

FCC HEAD MAY BREAK WITH OBAMA ON NET NEUTRALITY

While many liberal Democrats are falling in line behind President
Obama's call for the Federal Communications Commission to reclassify the
Internet to be regulated like a public utility, the commission's head is
signaling he may not be on board with the president's more hardline
approach to net neutrality. WaPo: [A]gency Chairman Tom Wheeler said he
preferred a more nuanced solution. His approach would deliver some of
what Obama wants but also would address the concerns of the companies
that provide Internet access to millions of Americans, such as Comcast,
Time Warner Cable and ATT. 'What you want is what everyone wants: an
open Internet that doesn't affect your business,' a visibly frustrated
Wheeler said at [a Monday] meeting, according to four people who
attended. 'What I've got to figure out is how to split the baby.'

channel size and the auto channel selection has caused a few issues with packet 
loss while the channels change but once it scans the entire band, it is very 
stable. We get 20% off by buying through a reseller so followup with Xclaim on 
who their preferred distributor is.

And in cases of non-congestion where aesthetics are important, you don’t have 
more than 50-60 clients, and most clients are much farther than a couple miles, 
(although 12 is amazing), it works pretty well.

Re: [AFMUG] Carnival Cruises enhances Wifi @ Sea

2014-11-06 Thread Rory Conaway via Af
I submitted a design for this about 5 years ago for a cruise line that was 
working along the coast line.  A Bats system is necessary due to the range, 35 
miles off the cost.  The one I was working with was designed specifically for 
the PTP600.  The cost of the towers and land acquisition was too high at the 
time.

Then if budget allows it, just buy new ones.  Peplink is one the absolute best 
for this application.  The support multiple redundant links and best path 
analysis.  We have used them for 10 years with zero issues.  The biggest one I 
have is the 710 but the newer ones are even faster.  For corporate application, 
set and forget and you don’t need a network person to set them up, manage, or 
monitor them.   They are really simple.  If you want to log into one and see 
it, let me know.

Re: [AFMUG] Telrad LTE vs 450 3.65GHZ

That’s just it, it’s not built around a standard chipset.  They can cut over 
from WiMax to LTE with just firmware and there is no reason not to deviate 
since the PHY doesn’t have to be compatible with anything else.

The latency is in the standard, so they would have to deviate from it.  Being 
SDR, I suppose they theoretically could, I just haven't seen it happen yet.  
Presumably the CPE are built around a standards based chipset, so it would 
probably mean an increase in price for those as well.

The 450 is going to smoke the Telrad from a latency standpoint.  This is a big 
downside to this gear IMO.  If someone would optimize LTE for use in a fixed 
environment you could possibly get better latency, but I'm not seeing that 
happening.

Is anyone looking at both these options?  Pros and cons of one vs

What I really wander is can you bond two non adjacent 10MHZ channels
with Telrad to make a 20MHZ channel?  I know you cannot with 450 and
it might become very useful down the road.  Right now with 450 and a
perfect connection on a 20MHZ channel we can do around 80Mbps
downstream per sector.  With a 10MHZ channel and not so perfect
connections that is really getting cut back.

Also, right now we can do ABAB quite easily with 450 gear.  With LTE
can we do  where spectrum is scarce?
