This is what the original contract from DARPA to BBM, to create the Internet, was about! The net was created to enable communications bttn point A and point B in this exact scenario. Uh, not exactly. There was diversity in this case, but there was also N+1 breaks. Outside of a few counties in the Bay Area, the rest of the country's telecommunication system was unaffected. So in that sense the system worked as designed. Read the original DARPA papers, they were not about making sure grandma could still make a phone call. For a good man in the street perspective of how the outage effected things like a pharmacy's ability to fill subscriptions and a university computer's ability to boot check out a couple of shows broadcast on KUSP (Santa Cruz Public Radio) this morning: Why didn't the man in the street pharmacy have its own backup plans? Why didn't the pharmacy also have a COMCAST or RCN broadband connection for alternative Internet access besides ATT or Verizon, a Citizens Band radio channel 9 for alternative emergency communications besides 9-1-1, a satellite phone for alternative communications besides local cell phones, and a Hughes VSAT dish for yet even more diversity? Why was the pharmacy relying on a single provider? Or do it the old-fashion way before computers and telecommunications; keep a backup paper file of their records so they could continue to fill prescriptions? Why didn't the pharmacy have more self-diversity? Probably the usual reason, more diversity costs more. That may be the reason why hospitals have more diversity than neighborhood pharmacies; and emergency rooms have other ways to get medicine. Maintaining diversity and backups is probably also part of the reason why filling a prescription at a hospital is much more expensive than filling a prescription at your neighborhood pharmacy. Likewise, why didn't grandma have her own pharmacy backup plan. Don't wait until the last minute to refill a critical presciption, have backup copies of prescriptions with her doctor, have an account with an alternative pharmacist in case her primary pharmacist isn't reachable, etc. Readiness works better if everyone does their part, including grandma. Next time it won't be ATT, it will be Cox or Comcast or Qwest or Level 3 or Global Crossing or or or .

Re: [WISPA] STP for redundancy on two panels horiz/vert oriented?
I would concur with Josh. I would use OSPF and run the links unidirectionally that way in essence you get a full duplex link, but still have redundancy should a link go down. Also, why use two antennas? MTI makes a nice dual polarized 23 dbi antenna.

Re: [WISPA] STP for redundancy on two panels horiz/vert oriented?
That really only makes sense if the links will have asymetrical bandwidth shaping otherwise you are just wasting capacity. Run them in parallel and load balance them or use the second as a backup. And DP antennas would be a cost effective way to go and would guarantee polarity isolation. Balance the RSL levels on both links and you should be able to operate on the same channel depending on the radio's C/I ratio Bob Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -Original Message- From: Andrew MacLeod amacl...@ethericnetworks.com Date: Sun, 12 Apr 2009 16:45:08 To: WISPA General Listwireless@wispa.org Subject: Re: [WISPA] STP for redundancy on two panels horiz/vert oriented? I would concur with Josh. I would use OSPF and run the links unidirectionally that way in essence you get a full duplex link, but still have redundancy should a link go down. Also, why use two antennas? MTI makes a nice dual polarized 23 dbi antenna.

Re: [WISPA] High Throughput Licensed vs. Unlicensed - change oftopic -- customers / AP
No its not an unrealistic goal, if the business model is low margin high volume type subs. There can be much less maintenance with building a business model on a smaller number of business subs, making it not necessary to get that much per sub. For example, We'll sell 10Mhz of spectrum for $1000/month, to a single customer. Where that will only yield us $2000 per sectors, its also only 2 customer and locations to support. I will also say that in competitive served markets, its getting harder and harder to get 100 users on a AP, if in a market thats asking for 5mbps speeds, or 1mbps uploads. Sure, I've gotten 75 users on a 3mb 900 sectors, in an unserved market, but that is different that a market competing with Cable and Fios, for example, where users actually expect to be able to upload with bit torrent, and watch their NetFlix movies. In my earlier years, I was sold on the fact that low ARPU subs was the better market, because if selling 1mbps services, the oversubscription ratios on 10mb sectors could be much much higher. However, I am learning that the High ARPU higher capacity business, with little over subscriptions, is proving more profitable. Its also changes a bit, if wholesale markets are required. Sure if you are the only one in town, onme can stand firm on maximizing the return per sector, at $5K per sector. But a reseller won't pay you $5k per sector, they'll building over you instead. Sometimes its worth getting much less per sector, using the reseller, instead of competiing with their interference otherwise.

If they start to tear they can easilly blow off. But our lasted quite a long time. Be prepaired for slight change to car's paint color behind the magnet sign. But it was by far the best source of advertizing we ever did, and it was cheap. We tried large trailer signs parked in key areas, but that did not do nearly as well, as signs actually on the work vehichles themselves, even though the work vehichle sign was 1/10th the size. Primarilly bcaue there is no cost to the vehichle signs, and they never stop working for you 24x7.

Re: [WISPA] High Throughput Licensed vs. Unlicensed - change oftopic -- customers / AP
Tom, I think you are missing a BIG key that many ISP's (starting clear back in the dial-up days) have missed. The best mix, use of resources, and profitability comes from having high ARPU business customers AND residential users. Why? Because the business customers use the bandwidth from 8:00AM to 5:00PM M-F... while the residential users are 5:00PM to 8:00AM M-F and weekends. As far as user counts go, we are about 90% residential and 10% business... but as far as revenue it's probably closer to 80%/20% or even 70%/30%. We sell a lot of residential wireless and yet our peak bandwdith usage is at 10:00AM M-F... so I am able to sell that same bandwidth again at night to the residential users.

[WISPA] Towers....
Just wanted to post a quick plug here for Nello Towers. If any of you guys or gals is considering buying a tower or towers you should consider these guys. We have been installing tower stuff for years and and I can't remember the last time I didn't have to pull out a mag drill, torch, come-a-long, sledgehammer or some other tool or device to make a tower go together. we just installed a 100' freestanding Nello NSX tower for a customer and every single hole lined up perfectly, the instructions were straight forward, everything was labeled and color coded, and there was even a box that said SPARE HARDWARE Holy Crap! Imagine that!!! A freakin' tower dog's miracle moment. we put the tower together and hung it in one day without issue. And we were not short ANYTHING. We have a second one to do and I can honestly say I am looking forward to it. Now I have no relationship with this company and I don't make anything from them. But I know what a nightmare putting some of these together can be like for someone with experience. Can't imagine a novice trying it. Anyone looking for some fun should buy five 100' Super Trylon towers from Tessco and try putting them together with the instructions off the web site. Took us 4 weeks especially when we realized we had all kinds of parts missing. And the shipping was a killer because Tessco makes its own kits and crates each individual section in nice heavy wood crates. 10 sections, 10 crates. We had enough wood left over to build a 4 bedroom house! :-) Just an FYI. Bob WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Towers....
I have never bought a Nello Tower, simply because we don't buy much new steel, we buy existing sites for the most part. I have however dealt a number of times with Dan Ianello. Dan is very available, very customer service oriented, and has been always nothing but helpful to me. I have NEVER heard anyone with a negative account of dealing with Nello.

Re: [WISPA] Time Warner Tests $150-Per-Month Unlimited Internet
Are you using the optional QoS module that does layer 7 traffic shaping? I was using that at home but found the QoS in the Tomato firmware for Broadcom based APs to be more accurate. I haven't found any of the free open source Linux based firewalls to be very good at traffic shaping. I wish Packeteer had a software based solution (preferrably free).

That brings up a whole new point that I had never considered How many more users can you put on an AP if you are NOT providing VoIP services that you have to support?
