Re: [WISPA] Zimbra Email Server

2010-12-14 Thread Dylan Bouterse
We have been on the pay-for Zimbra solution for a couple of years now
and are very happy with it. It's stable, offers a very nice web
interface, and the upgrade to the collaboration product is above and
beyond anything I've used before, including an Outlook/Exchange
environment. The search capabilities are also much advanced to other
solutions I've seen. It makes organizing and finding emails in a *many
Gb* mailbox very easy.

[WISPA] RB-411AH being really Weird

2010-12-14 Thread Steve Barnes
Mikrotik Gurus please Read and give advice sorry for the length of this.

I have a tower that has been very weird for me The night before Thanksgiving we 
had a huge storm.  There was very little lightening but +2 of rain.  At 6:00 
am Thanksgiving day the whole tower crashed.  I have AC run to the top, a Allen 
Bradley power supply converts to dc and powers the 8 devices I have at the top 
all of them Mikrotik but one UBNT.  The Allen Bradley Power supply had died 
Completely.  I had a Climber replace the 12 Volt Allen Bradley with a 24 Volt 
since all the equipment could handle the 24 volts.  Everything came back up and 
life was good.  For 6 hours.  Then the 3- RB411AH /XR2 sectors just started 
rebooting over and over again.  Then they went off completely but everything 
else on the tower was fine.  I personally climbed the tower a day later and 
found that the 24V power supply was putting out 36 volts and the Over Voltage 
protection on the 411's were turning them off.  I replaced the Power Supply to 
a 12 volt turned up to 18Volt and immediately everyth
 ing was fine.  For 1 week.

All the sudden one morning I got pages saying 1 of the sectors was down again 
so I started watching it and It would be up for 3 min then reboot itself I 
checked Routing and Watchdog all were fine, just to be sure I turned watch dog 
off.  Then all the sudden It stayed up.  30 min later  sector 2 started going 
up and down.  After 15 min of that they all stabilized.  They have been up for 
8 days now.  This morning I woke up and had one of them completely down and one 
of the others have been going up and down.  I was sending a tech out to reset 
the tower when the Sector that had been down for 5 hours for some reason 
rebooted itself and has worked ever since and just now the 2nd sector 
stabilized as well.  

I am going to run new wires to the Sectors and replace all the 411s and xr2s.  
I am afraid this will not resolve the issue.  I have already replaced the POE's 
and APCs as well. All running ROS 4.11.  It has been terrible weather here so I 
am limping as best I can till it is safer for the climb.  Any other ideas.

2M signatures, tons of comments at FCC ahead of net neutrality vote

December 14 2010 - 12:28 pm ET | Tracy Ford | RCR Wireless News

The Federal Communications Commission is getting deluged with comments
before it gets ready to vote on proposed rules to regulate the Internet,
including rules that would govern wireless broadband. Among the groups
filing is an organization called SavetheInternet.com, which promises to hand
deliver 2 million signatures to the FCC.

The group, backed by Free Press, said it represents more than 850 groups
from across the political spectrum. We represent people from every walk of
life, and don't take a penny of corporate money to do this work. Our goal is
to give Internet users a seat at the table, a voice in Washington when it
comes to protecting our vital right to access an open Internet. .Net
Neutrality issue isn't merely an issue to be decided among corporate Titans,
their lobbyists and Beltway insiders. It pits the special interests of the
few (phone and cable companies) against a vast and authentic grassroots
effort involving Americans of every stripe.

On the other hand, Mobile Future said FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski's
proposal is reasonable. Given the vibrantly competitive wireless
marketplace and the real and relevant differences between wireline and
wireless networks, Mobile Future continues to believe that Commission
regulation of wireless broadband Internet access is inappropriate. That
said, Mobile Future is supportive of Chairman Julius Genachowski's plan to
move ahead with rules patterned after the compromise legislation proposed by
Representatives Henry Waxman and Rick Boucher, i.e., the Open Internet Act
of 2010.2 Compared to the more inflexible net neutrality proposals being
advocated by some for wireless services, the Chairman's proposed reasonable
approach would be more consistent with spurring investment and innovation to
bring the benefits of wireless broadband services to all Americans.

Dish Networks said it called FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn to discuss the
issue. Dish expressed its support for strong open Internet rules, and
provided several examples from the record of wireless applications that
potentially could be blocked under the proposed wireless blocking rule
reported to be under consideration for adoption at the upcoming commission
open meeting.

One issue that hasn't received much media attention is how fixed wireless
broadband providers would be treated under the proposal. Netwurx provides
fixed wireless broadband service in rural Southeastern Wisconsin using
unlicensed spectrum. Netwurx is concerned that certain Network Neutrality
rules, if adopted, would severely and adversely affect our ability to
continue to provide our customers with affordable fixed wireless broadband
services. It is our understanding that although mobile broadband will have a
special set of rules, fixed wireless broadband will be lumped in with
traditional wired services and be subject to a stricter set of rules. We
feel that the network neutrality rules imposed on fixed wireless broadband
should be no more rigid than the rules that will apply to mobile wireless
broadband providers. The physics of wireless technology and delivery
necessitate a relaxed set of rules for all wireless technologies.

[WISPA] ONE HOUR LEFT!!!!

2010-12-14 Thread Rick Harnish
Have you protected your business yet today.  If not, don't do anything else
today until you file your Open Internet letter.  If you don't, everything
else may be moot anyways.  This is my last post of encouragement.  I bet you
are all tired of hearing it.

 

TOPIC:  Treatment of Fixed Wireless Broadband in Open Internet Decision to
be made at the FCC Commission Meeting on Dec. 21st, 2010.

DEADLINE:  Tuesday, December 14, 2010, 5:30 PM EST

IMPORTANCE LEVEL:  HIGH

 

All WISPs and WISP Vendors,

 

Friday I sent out an announcement of a critical decision that is tentatively
scheduled to be made at the December 21st FCC Commission meeting which may
severely impact your business and its future.  WISPA filed its Ex Parte
comments on Friday, which I have attached.  Doc121010-013.pdf.  Below, is an
excerpt of commentary made by Steve Coran, WISPA's telecommunication
attorney about this Open Internet proposal.

 

As you may be aware, at the December 21 meeting, FCC Chairman Genachowski
intends to put to full Commission vote his proposed Open Internet (net
neutrality) rules.  This means that all communications with Commission
decision-makers must be completed by 5:00 PM ET on Tuesday, December 14.
The Chairman has Commissioner Clyburn's vote, and will not get Commissioners
Baker and McDowell on board.  Commissioner Copps would prefer more stringent
Title II regulation and may hold out for some concessions, but at the end of
the day its widely believed he will sign on to the rules, yielding a 3-2
vote along party lines.  Republican House members have already indicated
that an FCC vote in favor of Open Internet rules would exceed the FCC's
authority and be subject to legislation and political fall-out.

 

From recent press reports and the Chairman's statements, and of relevance to
WISPA, we understand the proposed rules will create two separate regulatory
regimes, one for fixed and one for mobile.  Mobile wireless broadband
providers will be subject to less stringent requirements, while fixed
wireless will be included in the more heavily regulated class of broadband
providers.  On the other hand, the Chairman has indicated that he will allow
pay-as-you-go or usage-based billing.  Not sure about any caps or
constraints, but at least on this point the Chairman is open to innovative
billing models.

 

As we did during the TV Whitespaces proceedings, we have taken the time to
write a template letter that we encourage ALL WISPs and our partner vendors
to file.  The deadline is Tuesday, December 14th at 5:30 pm EST.  Feel free
to customize this letter, also attached to personalize it to your specific
company demographics.  Any text in Red should be replaced by company
specific information.  This campaign is extremely important and has a very
short window of opportunity for each of you to respond by.

 

Once you have customized the letter, please make a .pdf copy or a .doc file
and upload it at the following website.
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=rhroc.  If you choose not to
use the WISPA template letter but want to write your own comments, you can
either follow the previous procedure or use the Express filing method at
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=nc5cd.  The proceeding number
ET Docket Nos. 09-191 and WC Docket No. 07-52.  You can add the second
Proceeding Number by clicking Add Proceeding.

 

I would like to thank Doug Clark, Jack Unger and Steve Coran for their
assistance in editing and refining this letter template.  If you do not care
for the tone of this letter, please feel free to write your own.  

 

I cannot stress how important this is for each WISP company to do.

 

Respectfully,

Subject: [WISPA] ONE HOUR LEFT
Importance: High

 

Have you protected your business yet today.  If not, don't do anything else
today until you file your Open Internet letter.  If you don't, everything
else may be moot anyways.  This is my last post of encouragement.  I bet you
are all tired of hearing it.

 

TOPIC:  Treatment of Fixed Wireless Broadband in Open Internet Decision to
be made at the FCC Commission Meeting on Dec. 21st, 2010.

DEADLINE:  Tuesday, December 14, 2010, 5:30 PM EST

IMPORTANCE LEVEL:  HIGH

 

All WISPs and WISP Vendors,

 

Friday I sent out an announcement of a critical decision that is tentatively
scheduled to be made at the December 21st FCC Commission meeting which may
severely impact your business and its future.  WISPA filed its Ex Parte
comments on Friday, which I have attached.  Doc121010-013.pdf.  Below, is an
excerpt of commentary made by Steve Coran, WISPA's telecommunication
attorney about this Open Internet proposal.

 

As you may be aware, at the December 21 meeting, FCC Chairman Genachowski
intends to put to full Commission vote his proposed Open Internet (net
neutrality) rules.  This means that all communications with Commission
decision-makers must be completed by 5:00 PM ET on Tuesday, December 14.
The Chairman has Commissioner Clyburn's vote, and will not get Commissioners
Baker and McDowell on board.  Commissioner Copps would prefer more stringent
Title II regulation and may hold out for some concessions, but at the end of
the day its widely believed he will sign on to the rules, yielding a 3-2
vote along party lines.  Republican House members have already indicated
that an FCC vote in favor of Open Internet rules would exceed the FCC's
authority and be subject to legislation and political fall-out.

 

From recent press reports and the Chairman's statements, and of relevance to
WISPA, we understand the proposed rules will create two separate regulatory
regimes, one for fixed and one for mobile.  Mobile wireless broadband
providers will be subject to less stringent requirements, while fixed
wireless will be included in the more heavily regulated class of broadband
providers.  On the other hand, the Chairman has indicated that he will allow
pay-as-you-go or usage-based billing.  Not sure about any caps or
constraints, but at least on this point the Chairman is open to innovative
billing models.

 

As we did during the TV Whitespaces proceedings, we have taken the time to
write a template letter that we encourage ALL WISPs and our partner vendors
to file.  The deadline is Tuesday, December 14th at 5:30 pm EST.  Feel free
to customize this letter, also attached to personalize it to your specific
company demographics.  Any text in Red should be replaced by company
specific information.  This campaign is extremely important and has a very
short window of opportunity for each of you to respond by.

 

Once you have customized the letter, please make a .pdf copy or a .doc file
and upload it at the following website.
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=rhroc.  If you choose not to
use the WISPA template letter but want to write your own comments, you can
either follow the previous procedure or use the Express filing method at
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=nc5cd.  The proceeding number
ET Docket Nos. 09-191 and WC Docket No. 07-52.  You can add the second
Proceeding Number by clicking Add Proceeding.

 

I would like to thank Doug Clark, Jack Unger and Steve Coran for their
assistance in editing and refining this letter template.  If you do not care
for the tone of this letter, please feel free to write your own.  

 

I cannot stress how important this is for each WISP company to do.

 

Respectfully,

 

Rick Harnish

We have been on the pay-for Zimbra solution for a couple of years now and
are very happy with it. It's stable, offers a very nice web interface, and
the upgrade to the collaboration product is above and beyond anything
I've used before, including an Outlook/Exchange environment. The search
capabilities are also much advanced to other solutions I've seen. It makes
organizing and finding emails in a *many

Since I'm not a WISP per se but do like to file in FCC proceedings, I 
threw this together.  It basically says that ISPs per se, including 
all WISPs, should not be regulated, but that dominant wireline 
providers, like ILECs, should make wholesale facilities available, 
and that's the only neutrality required, or probably even likely to 
withstand judicial scrutiny.

[WISPA] Open Internet Campaign Update

2010-12-14 Thread Rick Harnish
It appears that our letter writing campaign including the WISPA filing
totaled 114.  There may be a few stragglers out there that haven't been
publicized yet.  I would like to thank all of those who took the time to do
this the last few days.  Some wrote some very detailed and excellent
letters.  To review, go to
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/comment_search/input?z=g8a9b and type in
09-191 to see all of the filings or 09-191 and the name of the filer if you
want to read anyone in particular.

 

You should all give yourself a pat on the back and feel good about the fact
that you have voiced your opinion in the public record.  For those of you
that are a first time filer, it wasn't that hard was it?  

Now we need to send these letters to your Senators and
Congressmen/Congresswomen before the December 21st hearing.  It would also
help to call their office and at a minimum discuss the letter with one of
the staff and better yet, try to schedule a face to face meeting.  Even if
Chairman Genachowski gets this passed, there will most likely be
Congressional action challenging the FCC Decision.  It will be important
that our legislative representatives understand the impact that regulation
may have on millions of US Citizens Internet access.

 

To lookup your House Representatives, go to
https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml

To lookup your Senator, go to
http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm

 

There were a few filings that were entered as Word Docs with track changes
turned on.  They appear in the federal record showing edits that were made
to the template.  To prevent that in the future, make a pdf of your document
or print and scan it before sending.  Although it isn't a big deal, it does
enhance the professionalism of your filing if you make sure that edits are
not evident.  The only other mistake I saw made was some filers used WISPA
or my name instead of their own.  If you can't find your filing when you
search for it, you may be one of those people.

I, as a user, can highly recommend it.  If you'd like to dig deeper, I can

There would appear to be nothing to crop the base to under 10s of
thousands in my experience.

It's a delight, however, I must tell you.  The ability to take any mailbox
back to any previous date is also amazing.  It never ceases to amaze me.
If you have a user that says Oh, my, I deleted all my folders by

[WISPA] Appeals Court Holds that Email Privacy Protected by Fourth Amendment

2010-12-14 Thread Justin Wilson
In a landmark decision issued today
https://www.eff.org/files/warshak_opinion_121410.pdf  in the criminal
appeal of U.S. v. Warshak https://www.eff.org/cases/warshak-v-united-sta ,
the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the government must have a
search warrant before it can secretly seize and search emails stored by
email service providers.  Closely tracking arguments made by EFF in its
amicus brief 
https://www.eff.org/files/filenode/Warshak_EFF_Amicus_Brief.pdf , the
court found that email users have the same reasonable expectation of privacy
in their stored email as they do in their phone calls and postal mail.

Re: [WISPA] [WISPA Members] [IMPORTANCE LEVEL: HIGH] Network Neutrality Ex Parte Letter Template for Operators to file

2010-12-14 Thread Tom DeReggi
Fred,

Excellent Filing. 

The big risk is abuse of power by those with dominent market power, thus 
possibly the need for some targeted regulation. But I'm not aware of any WISPs 
that has scaled large enough to have dominent market power to the extent to 
become a risk to consumers or other providers. I asked for Fixed Wireless to be 
exempt from NetNeutrality restrictions simply because there is no market need 
to regulate a small provider.

Yes, there are more cost effective alternatives to repair, if you have time. 
First, there is a third party company that will repair your modems or sell you 
refurbished modems for your IDUs. I ran into one not to long ago, unfortuantely 
I forget who it was off the top of my head. (But I'll try to find out) 

I'm assuming you have the Split archetecture models. What model do you have? I

Re: [WISPA] Free Press Floods the FCC With Net Neutrality Petitions

2010-12-14 Thread Tom DeReggi
Oldest trick in the book, attach a position to an ideological word that people 
cant disagree with. Who can disagree with freedom.

Little does the public know they are supporting a position that could reduce 
freedom and possibly even destroy their freedom of choice, as they signon to 
positition that will reduce speeds, increase costs, reduce investment, and 
destroy small competitive providers. 

Freedom really means no regulation, so providers can have the freedom to build 
networks without unnecessary beurocracy and burdens.
Freedom to allow people to build businesses based without strings attached.

Ironically, Google is one of the largest advocates of NEtNEutrality but yet one 
of the largeset threats to freedom. NetNEutrality is best purposed to stop 
abuse of power by those with market power. I'd argue Google has majority market 
power beyond that of any single access provider. Google has more eyeballs and 
and steers Internet traffic more than any other entity. 

What would happen if we made a Save the Small Provider, the real Open 
Internet or Vote Content Neutrality not NetNeutrality for an Open Internet 
would it get a top indexing on search engines? Or would the Save the INternet 
Pro NetNEutrality get the top Indexing? 

Google has the power allow consumers to see the point of view of content 
providers, but to prevent their access to view Access provider's point of view.
On a critical vote week like this week, Google has power to censor what 
consumers can find and have access to.  What preventing Google from doing that 
right now, and compromising our Free country?   

What makes content providers a better steward of Freedom than Access providers?

Free Press Floods FCC With Net Neutrality Petitions
Group wants Commission to toughen up chairman's proposed compromise order
By John Eggerton -- Broadcasting  Cable, 12/13/2010 11:45:52 AM
Free Press is killing some trees to try and save the Internet.

Free Press says that SavetheInternet.com volunteers will be hand-delivering 
2 million petitions to the FCC, with volunteers making the trek every hour on 
the hour until sometime Tuesday.

Free Press wants the FCC to toughen up the chairman's proposed compromise 
order expanding and codifying its network openness rules. The order does not 
rely on reclassifying broadband access under some common carrier regs (Title 
II), allows for specialized services, and does not apply most of them to 
wireless broadband.

The FCC is planning to vote on the order Dec. 21, which is still subject to 
edits and emendations as the commissioners vet the draft.

Free Press calls the chairmen's proposal a toothless effort that give[s] 
just about everything to giant phone and cable companies, and leave[s] Internet 
users with almost nothing.

That two million are not all in response to the compromise FCC proposal, 
but represent the names on a number of different petitions on net neutrality 
cirucluated over the past couple of years, according to Free Press' Craig Aaron.

Copies of the different petitions are being attached to the appropriate 
list of names, approximately 50,000 per boxful, which are being delivered 
hourly to the commission through Tuesday.
