Old Ham Radio Guy, or just Ham was there to be the knowledgeable

Ham looked over the equipment and the network structure, the RF being 
used and the interference that old boy was claiming.  In the end, Old 
Ham was impressed with New Boys knowledge, professionalism and quality 
of equipment.  Old boy.  He wasn't impressed with his setup of 
much else and pointed out immediately the inherent weakness in his 
Omni antennas.   However, Ham wrote up a plan for old boy and new boy 
to follow and the only real requirement is that old boy replace those 
Omnis with sectors and to agree on trying to separate their coverage 
area as best they can.   Word is Old Boy has already obtained a few 
sectors so we shall see.


Thanks for ideas on both sides of this.  I just have to laugh at Old 
Ham Dude coming in as the wild card.  You can't argue with an old ham 
no matter how much you try.

Re: [WISPA] bandwidth provider at Westin

I'm using Spectrum now, and at 65/meg, it hurts, since my use is going up as 
much as 10% a month.   Not only that, I haven't been able to get anyone to 
talk to me or respond to emails in six months, except for matters of 
collecting money.They're all over that, but I'm too small, I guess, to 
warrant anyone's time for any other matters.

Re: [WISPA] Figuring it out

2011-01-01 Thread MDK
I've had my one test sector up for some time, and then it suddenly developed 
ethernet issues.  

I changed both cables and switch, and no joy.   

I have the replacement rocket, just waiting for the moment I can get back up 
there and replace it.  

Since this is more common than it should be, I'm going to go whine to UBNT.  I 
thought mine might a fluke or some kind of odd damage issue, but apparently 
not.   

Unless someone knows of a managed switch that uses less than 3W power, I'm 
stuck with dumb switches...

Try setting the Rocket AP to 10Mbit on the Ethernet and see if you get the same 
results.  I have had several 100Mbit ethernet issues with Rockets, only fix I 
have had has been to put a modified POE RB/750G near the top of the tower to 
the Rocket.  At 100Mbit they had 7-20% packet loss.  If you have a mikrotik you 
can also test this using the ping command from base to top and set the timeout 
to 75ms.  If you have any packet loss, try setting to 10Mbit and ping again.

Re: [WISPA] bandwidth provider at Westin

2011-01-01 Thread Ryan Spott
What amount of bandwidth are you using at this time? John is a pretty
reasonable guy. Renegotiate for lower rates at a higher commit.

Or. Go to another colo and ask for 3 rack units and an X-Connect to
the SIX. When you have that Xconnect, your bandwidth costs should go
down pretty dramatically as there is no longer a loop charge.

Pick a provider:

Bottom line in all this is very simple.

When your the first on a grainleg - make a contract that is rock solid.
Get the right of first refusal on any frequency and get it on paper.

While handshakes are nice - paper wins hands down.

Re: [WISPA] Figuring it out

 Unless someone knows of a managed switch that uses less than 3W power,
 I'm stuck with dumb switches...

RB493G PDF:

http://routerboard.com/pricelist/download_file.php?file_id=259

 Power consumption ~3W without extension cards, maximum -- 16 

What I don't understand is the RB250GS 5port switch only, claims
up to 6W.

The PDFs for RB450G and RB750G say 6.4W at maximum load.

The PDF for RB750 (100Mbps ports) says Up to 3W.

I don't know if any of those would be suitable for use as a switch
in your situation...

Re: [WISPA] bandwidth provider at Westin

2011-01-01 Thread Ryan Spott
Exactly, a x-connect is ~$200-600 a month.  Once you get connected,
you can peer with as many providers as you want. Free or usually
negotiated rates.

 My guess is the local loop is the big cost... not the actual bandwidth.

 What amount of bandwidth are you using at this time? John is a pretty
 reasonable guy. Renegotiate for lower rates at a higher commit.

 Or. Go to another colo and ask for 3 rack units and an X-Connect to
 the SIX. When you have that Xconnect, your bandwidth costs should go
 down pretty dramatically as there is no longer a loop charge.

 Pick a provider:

 I'm using Spectrum now, and at 65/meg, it hurts, since my use is going up as
 much as 10% a month.   Not only that, I haven't been able to get anyone to
 talk to me or respond to emails in six months, except for matters of
 collecting money.    They're all over that, but I'm too small, I guess, to
 warrant anyone's time for any other matters.
