Ok John
I'm taking your challenge for 250.00 and raising you 50.00 :)
Mac will see 300.00 tomorrow when the wife gets to work.

Lets see if we can get the bidding higher.

Like you I don't want any glory, but would like to help.
As I sit here in my comfortable living room watching the people in 
Louisiana and Mississippi suffering, I have to say it makes me want to 
do something.

I can see that many of these peoples lives are completely ruined.
It would be nice if I could drive on down there and get people internet 
access, but I think at this point what most of these folks are needing 
is money to survive and help put their lives back together.

It is a very sad situation and one that nobody can really ignore.

[WISPA] Katrina donations $550.00

2005-09-01 Thread Mac Dearman


 I just wanted to say thanks to those who have donated their hard 
earned money from both of these lists (wireless@wispa.org & equipment-l) 
thus far. The total as I just checked is $550.00 and there is not a 
problem finding a place to use it! I will post some more pictures in my 
photoalbum after while and send a link for any of you who might want a 
peek at whats happening in these shelters that have been set up.


  We have set up wireless links into several of these shelters and set 
up at least two VOIP phones in each. There are others who are going to 
setup some PCs now that there is an internet connection in there. The 
needs of communication with their families and food are their first 
priorities at this point in time. They all have a shelter over their 
heads, their medical needs are being met as well as everyone is being 
fed - - - - that leaves a big gap for communication!! I am the only ISP 
in the area and we counted 11 shelters within my coverage area. Not all 
of them are accessible to my wireless coverage today, but we are gonna 
try to set up a link in the morning to one that is about 12 miles 
outside my current coverage area.


I have my normal business of wireless to do and I cannot continue 
to put off my business everyday as I have for the last few days. I am 
always at least 50 site surveys behind and 30 confirmed installs as 
well.  If there is anyone out there who has the time and enough 
compassion to come down - - I have some more gear that could be hung, 20 
more VOIP phones on the way (compliments of "NUVIO") as well as towers 
to hang the gear on. I will put you up in my house and feed you well, 
put you in one of my vans, buy the gasetc, but  I can't offer any 
pay for this work, but I can guarantee when these folks see the free 
phones, PCs...etc it is all worth the effort. I can't count the hugs & 
heart felt "thanks"  I got today and yesterday.


 If any of you have any "extra" CPE I could use that as well to help 
make the rest of these VOIP connections into the shelters. I will pull 
it down and send it back to you when the need is diminished by these 
evacuees. It may be a month, 3 months or next week. I have humbled 
myself today and I have no shame in asking for your help this evening. I 
am awed by the need and  I have hung about all the CPE I can afford, I 
have donated all my VOIP phones, I have donated all my money and have 
donated more time than I can afford. If you want to send something "I 
Thank you" from the bottom of my heart. It don't have to be money, send 
a few cans of beans, corn, canned meat - - - it just don't matter. These 
folks have NOTHING!! I tell you that we are busing them to schools to 
take a shower everyday! UNREAL!!


None of the 303 VOIP numbers or the 450 numbers posted below are valid 
for reaching me right now. You can call those numbers and get an evacuee 
if you just want to call and see what they are in need of. I am sure the 
phones will be answered if they arent on the phone with someone they 
have been trying to reach.


You say it can't ever happen to you? You better just hope and pray that 
if you are ever in a devastating "tragic" event that there is someone 
(strangers) that give a damn and will open up their hearts to help a 
fellow American out.

I have just filled out the form on the  part 15.org website to give up 
my time and some radios(yes, I know it is part 15, but I really want to 
help). I have a few old Avaya ROR's laying around that would work really 
well for PtP links, and I can leave them there and forget about them if 
needed. I guess we will see what happens?

RE: [WISPA] Wireless Communication Support

2005-09-01 Thread Jeff Mabry
We are mobilizing to help those in dire straits.  SlingShot is a subsidiary
of EcoDigital Development Group (EDG) under TEAM EDG we have an
environmental engineering and remediation firm, a property redevelopment
company, and believe or not a RV rental company.  

We are working out the logistics to provide temporary housing in some of the
areas with the RV rental company.  Also we are sending representatives from
the environmental remediation group to help with the clean up.  We
(SlingShot) are going down to see if we can assist with DATA/VOIP
connections for first responders.  

Our (SlingShot) major concern at this time is to work with those providers
in the area and help establish wireless communications to those in law
enforcement, emergency medical services, clean up crews and human services.
I would like to be able to help set up some mobile WIFI hotspots where folks
can reconnect with a loved one via e-mail or VOIP services.

Trango Broadband has offered to provide us with equipment in order to
re-establish wireless connectivity.  

I saw where you mentioned you had bandwidth available.  Is there anyone else
in the area with active services?  Maybe we can pull something together.

In closing, if a long term reconstruction contract is established then I
would hope we would have an opportunity work on it.

So I guess the answer to your question is Yes and No.

Jeff

We have power in Mobile and we also provide our own power on the coast
site - Wind Generator (which may be gone) Solar panels (which may be
gone) and a huge battery bank (with a fresh fluid cycle - fresh water to
salt water) :)

If the tower didn't collapse Im sure our gear is still hanging and ready
to roll. It's a 150ft Rohn55 with 1 2ft panel and 1 2ft dish.
That's all that was on that tower.

As a WISP we don't really have the ability to provide food or water. 
What we can provide is communications. I keep hearing people can't get 
in touch with their friends and family. Is there no need for 
communications support? If not, great, but if there is a need I for one 
would like to help.

Re: [WISPA] ATTENTION: WISPS and Local Companies in the Hurricane Region

2005-09-01 Thread Matt Liotta
All we really need is a good internet connection. We could use the 
Trango equipment to backhaul some Wi-Fi nodes and we could supply some 
VoIP phones for people to make calls on. I am thinking we could just 
have on a truck a backhaul or mesh node, a switch, and some phones and 
just drive around to problem areas where phones don't work at all.

Joe,

Its great to hear you and your family are out of harm's way safely.  You
have been in my prayers and thoughts since before the Hurricane hit.  I
can't and won't pretend to imagine how devastating this storm has been
to your community, business, home and friends.  WISPA is committed to
assist you in any way we can.  We are in the process of setting up a
donation fund to help you get your business back on it's feet once you
get to move home.  

You pretty well tell it like it is in this article.

I quote:  "One of the neat things about the WISP business is that even
our competitors are willing to help with problems,'' said Mr. Laura.
"Everyone helps each other and has to work together"

I hope to have a paypal account set up by the end of the day in which we
can start collecting donations.  Everyone helps each other here!  

Let us all know how you are doing from time to time and if you need
anything just ask!  I'm sure someone will step up to the plate and help.


God be with you!

I am so thankful for that. The mental effects that this has on one is
unimaginable. At first I thought it was just me but everyone I talk to

action as soon as I can get back home. They are talking maybe three
months to even drive into New Orleans. I am at my Wife's cousins house
and Shreveport and just wish all of the other people were as fortunate
as I to have a roof over there head. Thanks for the offers of help!! Its
