Hi Javier,

The web development company I own is creating a web-based
business management system for ISP's. You can subscribe to the
system's launch notification list at http://www.ISPBuddy.com  It
is going to offer numerous features, including WISP monitor and
billing processes and it will be affordable. I'm already using it to
alert me when devices become unresponsive and it automatically
logs in daily and backs up the settings for all of our access points
so we have them readily available in the event a restore is needed.
If there are special features you have in mind, contact me offlist
and I'll see what we can do to accommodate your requests if the
features aren't already planned.

More on Clearwire - Intel Moto invest $900 Million Re: [WISPA] Clearwire is coming to my area. (eek?)

2006-07-06 Thread Frank Muto

MOTOROLA AND INTEL TO INVEST IN CLEARWIRE
[SOURCE: New York Times, AUTHOR: Laurie Flynn  John Markoff]
The investment units of Intel and Motorola said Wednesday that together they 
would invest $900 million in Clearwire, a wireless Internet service 
provider, in hopes of speeding development of its high-speed wide-range 
network. Intel Capital said it would make a $600 million cash investment in 
Clearwire, which was founded nearly three years ago by Craig O. McCaw, a 
pioneer in the cellular telephone industry.


Motorola Ventures would not say how much of its $300 million investment 
would be in cash. In a related transaction, Motorola said it would buy 
Clearwire's NextNet Wireless subsidiary for an undisclosed amount. Analysts 
said Intel and Motorola wanted to give a lift to WiMax, a standard for 
mobile wireless that is used by Clearwire and is competing with technology 
from Qualcomm. WiMax is much like the popular WiFi networking standard but 
works over much greater distances, carrying both Internet data and mobile 
phone calls. A single WiMax base station could connect hundreds or 
potentially thousands of customers to the Internet over distances of many 
miles.

I have a tower in rural Western Washington.

Today I went in to find 5 of thier radios still in the box, 1  Orthogon 
systems PTP ethernet bridge, an APS rack etc


So... does anyone else out there compete with Mr McCaw? How does his 
service stack up?


I don't mean to be a the sky is falling or conspiracy theory kind  of 
guy but not only is Clearwire suddenly up in this area, but I  think 
Clearwire may be the party that is applying for all of the RUS  loans in 
our rural areas.


And on the RUS loans deal, does anyone know who to complain to if I  don't 
feel there was adequate legal notice to the RUS loan being  applied for in 
my area?

It will be 100% web-based so you will not need to install anything
as it will all reside on the ISPBuddy.com's servers. So, you'll be able
to manage your ISP business from anywhere you have a computer and
Internet access (dial-up or broadband, doesn't matter). The billing
module will integrate with Authorize.net and LinkPoint to start and
others will be added upon request and if feasible.

Continue to watch this list and I will make an announcement soon for 
just this type of solution.  Mine will be a hosted solution.


If you'd like an onsite solution, look into Freeside or Optigold for 
the billing portion.  Both of these are reasonably priced (if you 
are familiar with Linux, you can download and install Freeside for 
free).  Both have the ability to do provisioning for new users.


For monitoring, there are lots of options out there.  I really like 
the the one that Mikrotik has released called The Dude.  It is 
free, and if you are using Mikrotik within the network, it will 
offer a TON of extra features above and beyond just simple 
monitoring.  If you want to spend more time, you may find that 
Nagios is a better solution for you.  I liked nagios, but for me The 
Dude really outshined it.  Also, there is a program called Cacti 
that many people really like, but it is not so much of a monitor 
program as it is a graphing program.  In other words, it will create 
graphs of bandwidth usage, signal levels, error rates and anything 
else that your system makes available via SNMP.

[WISPA] Google Threatens Telcos with Antitrust Action

2006-07-06 Thread Peter R.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nf/20060705/bs_nf/44263

In an escalation of the war of words over network neutrality -- the idea
that all Internet content would not be prioritized for delivery on the 
basis of fees -

- a top Google executive said Tuesday that the Internet giant would
pursue antitrust enforcement against telecommunications companies if 
abuses occur.


Google Vice President and noted Internet pioneer Vinton Cerf said at a 
news conference in Sofia, Bulgaria, that the company would be happy if 
the U.S.  Congress passes a measure to enforce network neutrality.


But if it does not, he said, Google will not hesitate to file antitrust
complaints if telecommunications companies misuse their resulting market
power.

If a provision for network neutrality is not added to an existing
telecommunications bill in Congress, he said, then we will simply have 
to wait until something bad happens, and then we will make known our 
case to the Department of Justice's antitrust division.


'Hand on Spigot'

Brian Washburn, an analyst at Current Analysis, a technology research 
firm,said Cerf's statement might simply amount to posturing.


It may be tough for Google to argue antitrust if net neutrality 
measures fail, Washburn said. In order to argue antitrust,

one would need to
establish that a company or a group of companies are monopolistic, with
their hand on the spigot. But there are many providers and many resellers.

Last week, the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and 
Technology -- by an 11-11 vote -- defeated an amendment that would 
remove certain barriers for telephone companies to sell TV channels.


The main bill, which passed the committee by a 15-7 vote, deals with
broadband, TV, and other telecommunications matters. It includes a 
provision allowing the FCC to fine phone and
cable companies if they try to block access to legal content or services 
on the Net.


A similar bill, which also does not include a requirement for network
neutrality, has passed the House of Representatives.

Wyden To Filibuster?

Senator Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) has indicated that he is prepared to 
filibuster the entire bill unless a provision for network

neutrality is included.

Without a clear policy preserving the neutrality of the Internet and
without tough sanctions against those who would discriminate, the Internet
will be forever changed for the worse, Wyden said in a statement.

A Verizon Communications executive has called for an 'end to Google's 
free lunch,' he said. A Bell South executive has said that he wants 
the Internet to be turned into a 'pay-for-performance marketplace.'


Under Senate rules, a Senator may filibuster by speaking without limit 
on a given measure, thus blocking a vote. Sixty votes in the Senate 
would be required to end a filibuster.


But Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), who sponsored the main bill and 
chairs the Committee, has acknowledged he does not yet have 60 votes. It 
is expected that the bill will not reach the Senate floor until 
September at  the earliest.


Proponents of network neutrality believe that, unless it is required,
telecommunications companies will be able to charge different rates for
different kinds of Internet content. Network neutrality would 
specifically  prohibit these kinds of toll roads.



Thank you.

[http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/060706/clth012.html?.v=55]

The WiFi Downtown Pittsburgh 
http://www.DowntownPittsburgh.cominstallation phase was unveiled today 
in Market Square as Mayor Bob O'Connor hung the network's first 
transmission radio. Installation of the Downtown wireless network, which 
will be powered by US Wireless Online http://www.uswo.net, will be 
completed by September 2006. Speaking on behalf of the WiFi initiative, 
Michael M. Edwards, president and CEO of the PDP, said, Free outdoor 
wireless will be a tremendous enhancement for workers, residents and 
visitors who want to utilize laptops, PDAs and other electronic 
equipment in Downtown Pittsburgh. As an innovative initiative, WiFi 
Downtown Pittsburgh will provide wireless access to the Central Business 
District/Golden Triangle, North Shore and Lower Hill District at various 
service tiers, including: US Wireless Online FreeConnect, which allows 
free access for up to two hours each day and US Wireless Online 
DayConnect, which provides usage at a higher bandwidth and can be 
purchased in increments of $7.99 per day, $14.95 per month or $119.99 
per year. FreeConnect users will be provided a minimum of 512 Kbps of 
bandwidth, while DayConnect users will receive 1 Mbps. DayConnect users 
also will benefit from VPN and other security encryption protocol 
support. ... In addition to its wireless Downtown component, WiFi 
Downtown Pittsburgh will provide municipal benefits, including four

Re: [WISPA] High Gain 2.4ghz Grid

Some are on mountaintops, some are on 100ft towers. It may be the
equipment I am using as well... if you have a 19dbi antenna now, and
change to 24dbi, then you should have a -77 signal, which is PLENTY for
Trango 2.4ghz (-90 receive level for 1600byte packets and full 5Mbps
speed). ;)

We are doing 30+ mile shots with 24db grids into 9db omni's.

Near LOS and we're seeing -82 but the tree tops are killing us on
packet loss.
  We currently have a 19dBi tranzeo
CPE200 connecting to a 9dBi Omni. I don't want to amp this shot so that
is out of the question.
