 Interesting. I noticed a similar issue with  ipv6.cnn.com today. I dont
 see it via TATA, but see it via Cogent.  So whats the story behind it
 and ARIN not being seen through cogent ?  Is it due to no v6 relation
 bewtween he.net and Cogent ?
 
 2620:0:2200:8::::8901  (whats with the crazy 8s?)
 
 
 Wow.  CNN now has IPv6.  That's awesome.  I guess i missed the memo.
 
 So, major players with IPv6 are?
 
 ipv6.cnn.com (just book marked it)
 
 ipv6.comcast.net
 
 ipv6.google.com (or you can have it all with a white-list)
 
 www.ipv6.cisco.com
 
 www.v6.facebook.com
 m.v6.facebook.com
 
 ipv6.t-mobile.com (admittedly, not major a major content source, but it's 
 mine)
 
 
 
 Yahoo just dropped in on the IPv6 content party
 
 http://ipv6.weather.yahoo.com/
 
 I just bookmarked it.  Well done Yahoos.

Don't forget ipv6.netflix.com...

 And, then debunking the dual-stack is too risky notion is
 www.ucla.edu (which is a big business by most measures) and serves
  and A records without a white-list or special FQDN.
 
 I have predicted that by the end of 2011 nearly ~50% of my network
 traffic (mobile provider) can be served by IPv6 natively end to end.
 I think a lot of folks that measure Facebook and Google (including
 YouTube)  traffic today can see how that is feasible given current
 volumes and rates of growth.  Hence, the viability of IPv6-only
 endpoints (especially mobile) with NAT64/DNS64 as truly connecting the
 IPv4 long-tail remaining 50% that will continue to shrink as more
 major sites follow the CNN's path.

Re: Specifications for Internet services on public frequency

2010-09-19 Thread John Gammons
Ubiquiti Networks - www.ubnt.com

I have deployed numerous rural wireless provider nets with a variety
of technologies and vendors and this is by far, the most cost
effective and reliable last mile solution.

IMHO, based on testing and real life lessons learned, unlicensed is
the only way to go in rural.  The benefits of licensed frequencies are
typically lost in rural environments as there aren't many contending
devices.  The above N based equipment performs roughly at the same
level as fixed wimax, without the expense of the wimax chipsets.  Of
course I am generalizing a bit and each deployment has it's own
requirements and challenges to be considered.

 Hello all,

 My team is working on technical and technological specifications of a
 document for the deployment of Internet service on public frequencies in
 rural areas. We welcome your thoughts on the topic in terms of previous
 experiences and, well sure, you recommendation in terms of equipment. You
 should note that the environment in question is very mountainous with very
 precarious infrastructure conditions: no electricity, poor access, etc. We
 would like to deploy a service at minimal cost, using mainly open source
 software.


 All comments, suggestions, recommendations, draft, success stories are well
 come.


 Feel free to contact me for additional information.
