No it's turned off on all the interfaces. I am beginning to think that this

That is what I though. I guess some people are calling the 5250-5350 spectrum 
5.2 which most people afaik dubbed the 5.3 spectrum? 
But I think most reading the list was under the understanding that we where 
talking about 5180MHz.

 I have a RB600 here that I've taken a screenshot of. No interfaces

 passes though this device during peak use. I suspect that the 41

Do you think that having each card on a RB433 while being installed into an
indoor enclosure with only 1 card per routerboard with foil around the
indoor enclosure will solve the self-interference? Assuming that the RB433's
are still stacked onto each other.

I seen people that put XR5 or SR5 radios for example in the MT's on a single

Depending on the powers of the card and it's side lobes you might need
60+MHz separation between the center channels in non turbo mode. 

 

In this case here one radio card is on 5745 and the other is on 5785 which

Not very much for the side lobes. If anyone looks at a 802.11a or g signal

Probably any radio designed to work on 5250-5350 and 5470-5725 and that 
allowed you access via management system statistics to the field showing 
"radar events" (or similar).

Re: [WISPA] DFS Radar Question

2009-04-20 Thread Patrick Shoemaker
I had one of those spectran units in 2007 (HF-6080 rev 3 model) and 
found it to be grossly inaccurate and almost useless for even common 
WISP frequencies. YMMV, and contact me directly if you want details.

Re: [WISPA] DFS Radar Question

2009-04-20 Thread lakeland
My experience with several manufacturers radios is that the whole DFS thing is 
a crap shoot. 

I have had radios take DFS hits and block out those channels then replacement 
with a different mfgr radio and it works fine but have that replacement radio 
take hits but even another radio work fine.

Personally I think many radios false on noise instead of DFS. 

The only radios I have seen not take DFS hits are Exalts.

What I was thinking too.  5180 is a allowed freq, but should be FCC

Besides on the radar stuff.. The way DFS is designed in MT it will never be
able to get certified. First of it must continuously look for and detect

a horrible job in actually detecting radar signatures. 

Besides 5.2 is not part of the band you can use even with a certified radar

Re: [WISPA] DFS Radar Question

2009-04-20 Thread Eje Gustafsson
The Wi-SPY devices are fairly affordable. And they support remote monitoring
both with Windows and Linux. So you could set one up in a small linux box
that you leave on site and just let it log and you can view the data
remotely from your Windows machine over the network or go and pickup the
unit and view the log data that way. So will do just what you want. 
Also the frequency resolution the Wi-Spy devices offer is better then what I
normally set my real SA on when I check out radio cards or check out
signals. Very capable devices IMO there is no reason why a WISP shouldn't
have at least one of these in their toolbox. I can understand why many do
not want to buy a expensive spectrum analyzer for $3k+ for the simpler ones
but in all reality be able to track down signal sources and interference as
a WISP is a must. I know some people are using like Canopy SM's to do this
but they interface is slow and clunky and don't log any data.

It bounces from 30% to 50% pretty regular. 

Nothing is on NAT.

Did the CPU just jump or has it casually been like that?

I've never had 5 radios in any board, I don't know if that would cause a lot

Besides on the radar stuff.. The way DFS is designed in MT it will never
be
able to get certified. First of it must continuously look for and detect

[WISPA] DFS Radar Question

2009-04-20 Thread Scott Carullo

Anyone know of a radio that can just listen passively and scan through 
channels and report back on radar signals heard on what frequencies?  That 
would be a great tool to have to scope out certain areas of interest to 
know ahead of time what radar DFS issues might be present...

Re: [WISPA] is this router overloaded?

Gino - Top right corner.

Did the CPU just jump or has it casually been like that?

I've never had 5 radios in any board, I don't know if that would cause a lot
of usage or not.  Most any MT box I've seen is <5% CPU.  A lot of NAT as was
mentioned would be the first place I'd look.

Re: [WISPA] is this router overloaded?

2009-04-20 Thread Kevin Neal
Is this doing any NAT?  Is connection tracking enabled?  Do you have all
unneeded packages disabled?  We have a few RB600's out there and they do
fine for the most part, we don't do any wireless on the 600's and all of
them have the 564 daughterboard in them.

I have a RB600 here that I've taken a screenshot of. No interfaces are
bridged, everything is routed and I'm noticing some lag in the traffic that
passes though this device during peak use. I suspect that the 41 RIP routes
might have something to do with it as actual throughput isn't that much
sometimes topping out around 8Mbps. Just want to hear from others and if
there is any suggestions on how I might speed this up let me know. CPU usage

Re: [WISPA] Insurance on equipment

2009-04-20 Thread Gary Garrett
I had insurance from Hartford once.
Had a bad couple of months and paid the premium late.
They canceled me and said they do not insure ISP's or for that matter an 
Internet anything company.
I tried again a year later and they said the same thing No Internet 
company. Many on this list have Hartford Ins. so that is just a plain 
lie, they do not want my business and don't have the hair to say so.
The point is you can pay the premiums for years and still get dumped or 
just plain refused renewal. Insurance is pretty much Government mandated 
Organized Crime.
With the modern Business world Lawyers and Insurance are a symbiotic 
relationship. You can't have one without the other.

Re: [WISPA] How much to charge for a truck roll

2009-04-20 Thread D. Ryan Spott
I use these:  I buy 
them from Graybar in boxes of 100.

I figure this: my average run is around 30-150 feet.

Ethernet is good for 300+/- feet @ 100/1000bt . I figure that if I mess 
up the twisted pair just a little bit in that 100 foot long cable I 
won't see a huge impact in my 4mb-10mb service and if I do, then I bet 
wrong and I am out time and some minor materials.

All of the cable I pull is outdoor gel filled cable so everything is 
pretty aqua-phobic once I put electrical tape over the splice. I also 
offer the home owner the opportunity to put the cable behind a 2x4 
screwed to the wall over the cable or to put it through some conduit to 
keep the dog off the cable.

Re: [WISPA] Insurance on equipment

The Burlington Northern Railroad is self Insured.
You save millions of $ on insurance premiums but you know for sure 
someday there will be a train wreck and people will die.
S0... You put the money you would have spent on insurance in the 
bank and add to it monthly just like paying for insurance. Over time you 
have a huge and growing fund that you can borrow from for expansion etc.
You have eliminated the banks interest on capital and in effect you gain 
the interest. Plus you sleep well at night knowing if something happens 
you can cover it.

The problem is you better hope the $$ grows enough before that big 
lightning storm we all know is coming..

Re: [WISPA] Insurance on equipment

2009-04-20 Thread Scottie Arnett

They provide insurance at a rate for what you want covered. You pay less for a 
high deductable. In both cases, they will try everything they can to get out of 
paying you, and when they finally have to pay, they cancel the policy. So what 
was the use in getting the policy to begin with?

 I do believe they can do a search on claims you have filed and charge
 accordingly. So changing insurers most likely won't help.

No problem. I'm not the vendor, nor do I use Tranzeo.

Re: [WISPA] FW: Tranzeo Cleaning out the Cupboards Sale

2009-04-20 Thread John Scrivner
As far as I am concerned this is spam. Tranzeo is NOT a paid vendor
member of WISPA and as such gets no free ads here. Even if they were a
member this is not how approved ads are sent to our list membership.
Please refrain from sending out vendor ads to our list without board
approval.
Thank you,
John Scrivner

Re: [WISPA] How much to charge for a truck roll

2009-04-20 Thread Chuck Profito
It is usually chewed low, so we pull new cat 5 inside, the raise or cut the
upper piece to under the eve, then use a small black plastic project box,
$1.00, and a keystone or modular jack.  That way, if they can't teach their
dog manners, we have a easy spot to redo it. We don't use couplers at all,
although in the project box it should also work.  And we do charge for this.

We don't charge anything to fix problems with the radio, router or

to be moved, or they cause the problem (cut the cable, dog chews it,
etc.).

We've always tried to get the customer to pay something, especially
when
we have to replace equipment that goes bad. It's often turns into a
whole ordeal where the customer gets mad, threaten to switch
services,
etc. We mainly use Alvarion equipment which is pretty reliable, but
when
they go bad, they're expensive to replace.
 
Like to hear how others are doing it.

Re: [WISPA] electricity usage calculator

2009-04-20 Thread J. Vogel
Marlon referenced a new kill-a-watt that has an ethernet port, remote
monitoring, and power-cycling capability. I can't find any of those
features mentioned on any of the models on the kill-a-watt site, or on
the thinkgeek.com link you provided. Perhaps I missed it. Thanks for the
link though. :)

This is not something that many would have a difficult time with.  I
think that a bigger reality is that most of the people that would see it
would be either transient customers (not residents) OR they would
already have a broadband connection and be setting up laptops to connect
to their own AP/Router in their office/home.

This is sort of the point I was making above.  Most people who are in
their "home area" would not be searching for a new connection with their
laptops.

Setting up a Mikrotik Hotspot is something that can be done in less than
30 minutes in most cases.  This is not that hard to do.  The real
problem with the hotspot idea is that most hotspots (including Mikrotik)
will require internet access in order to function correctly.

We don't charge anything to fix problems with the radio, router or

to be moved, or they cause the problem (cut the cable, dog chews it,
etc.).

We've always tried to get the customer to pay something, especially

whole ordeal where the customer gets mad, threaten to switch

Like to hear how others are doing it.

Re: [WISPA] electricity usage calculator

2009-04-20 Thread Marlon K. Schafer
My biggest site (something like 9 radios now) is drawing under 20 watts 
these days.  Closer to 15 if my memory serves.

To get that number I used one of the new kill-a-watt units that has an 
ethernet port on it.  A bit spendy but very cool.  It allows me to remotely 
(through a company web site, not my own) monitor what's going on at a tower. 
It will also do power cycling!  Other than the fact that it has to be sent 
to the factory to get firmware updates (how's that for old fashioned?) I 
love the unit.

Looking for a H-Pol Omni that covers the entire 5Ghz band (5.1-5.8Ghz).
Anyone know of an antenna that does that?

Re: [WISPA] How much to charge for a truck roll

15 minute drive?  Oh man.  How cool would that be?

I have 1.5 hour drives to both edges of the network.  It's still just me too!

  I never used to charge for a lot of that stuff but then one day I said screw 
it.  $75 for a service call.  I had some complaints, started lowering the price 
for 5 minute repairs and decided on another change.  I now do $50 service 
calls.  I decided instead of getting complaints about $75 or lowering the price 
all the time because it's a quick fix that I'd be better off and have an easier 
time charging $50 all the time than $75 half the time.  It has worked out 
nicely.  No complaints and I don't feel like I'm screwing people (like $75 for 
a 5 minute job).  Couple things to remember is my coverage area is pretty 
small.  My office is in the middle so the drive time to any edge is not much 
more than 15 minutes.  We're also mostly residental, so we don't need instant 
response.  I can schedule a couple things in one area to make it efficient.

here is $20/month.

I think sometimes the provider shoots themselves in the foot, because they 
don't charge, when a customer would be perfectly willing to pay.
For example, The second time a dogs eats a wire, as Kurt explained, I don't 
think most home owners would mind paying.
In most cases we do repair/maintenance at NO Charge, for things that are our

responsibilty, that we warrant to cover.
And we'll give customers a break now and then, if they are an easy or long 
term customer of ours.
But there is nothing wrong with charging, when its appropriate. Nothing less

than $90, our 1 hour min..

Should have charged them the first time.  If someone threw paint on
your truck would you scrub it off or make them pay (financially pr
physically)?

We don't charge anything to fix problems with the radio, router or
cable. The only time we charge is if the customer requests the antenna
to be moved, or they cause the problem (cut the cable, dog chews it,
etc.).

Does anyone know of a provider doing this type of service in the areas North of 
Nashville?  We can see downtown Nashville in the distance.  We are right off
