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.

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.

Re: [AFMUG] Mimosa
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.

Re: [AFMUG] OT I must be bored today
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.

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.

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.

Again... customer service is what wins the day. :) Travis On 11/21/2014 9:00 AM, Ken Hohhof via Af wrote: 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.

[AFMUG] Points to Ponder
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??

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.

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.

[AFMUG] FCC article on Fox News
I'm planning on sending Tom a sympathy card. He is caught between his boss, Democratic donors, and his past and future clients. 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.

Thanks. I’m shocked that you can get an additional 20% it and I didn’t realize it had a distribution channel. I assumed at that price point it was direct. It would need at least a windows or cloud support for us to use it though. Setting up a VPN tunnel wouldn’t be a problem but managing a few hundred from a phone, not the best option.

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.

I have next to zero experience with MT. Not to say I am not willing to learn. So, what exactly would it take? Just the router? Do those things come in nice consumer grade cases? Seems to me the last time I had one it was a bare PCB. (Back in 2003)... How about a bill of materials, a configuration listing, perhaps come and set it up for me and teach us a class... We would buy the pizza...

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.

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.

That’s manufacturer dependent since they aren’t locked to the full cellular PHY.

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.

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?
