Re: [WISPA] Powercode BMU NX216

2013-11-26 Thread Kevin Neal
If you want to void your warranty you can get a DC power supply like
http://www.mini-box.com/M4-ATX-HV?sc=8category=981 that will power the
BMU.  You'll have to find a way to keep the power supply protected as it
won't fit into the case.


On Tue, Nov 26, 2013 at 11:34 AM, Roger Howard g5inter...@gmail.com wrote:

 I know the official answer from powercode is that in order to have a DC
 powered BMU, then you need to shell out $1995 for the GX266. My question
 is, is anyone familiar with the internals of the NX216? Can I void my
 warranty, take it apart, take out a AC-DC power supply, and wire it in
 directly to my DC plant? Like I can with say a Ubiquiti toughswitch?

 I don't have that many subscribers, so the GX266 is way overkill for me at
 the moment.

 Thanks,

Re: [WISPA] What is this?

2010-12-16 Thread Kevin Neal
It's a 16 Port KVM IP Switch, you have to buy SIPods that are of the
USB or PS/2 variety to hook to your server, then you connect this
device with the SIPods and you are able to manage multiple servers
from one keyboard/monitor, where this also does KVM over IP you can
also install the software on your computer to be able to remotely
access the servers.  One nice thing about a KVMoIP Switch is you have
Bios level access to any of your servers.

Forgive me if it's changed in newer versions, on version 8 you would
go to Reports | Financial | Query-based Accounting Reports, then fill

 LOL that reminds me of Beavis  Butthead, where all things in the

 Tony, your network may be much bigger than mine so billing problems
 show up more frequently, but, IMHO, billing is alright, not great,
 not perfect, just good.  It's not an accounting package, and our
 bookkeeper seems to get what she needs out of it to do the books
 every month.

 About half of my customers pay with a check, and we put it in
 through Powercode, so I think your comment about forget it in
 powercode is a little extreme.

 Powercode may be great with
 the BMU, but as for a billing system is really sucks!

 Forget about basic accounting
 reports and simply things like a check deposit.  Yes, customers
 still pay with a check.   Forget about it in powercode!


 I agree.  Do
 NOT even consider paying for Powercode unless you
 intend to
 integrate with the BMU (bandwidth) management.  That's where the
 real power is, though we're having problems still, with about 5
 percent of our customers (those who have remote subnets, like a
 /30 or /29 or /24).  Also some little things.

 Don't get me
 wrong, the product is usable and valuable.  It's just that with
 what they want to charge for it these days, I expect for
 EVERYTHING to work, in MY environment, and for there to be
 excellent
 support.  We're talking over $1200/mo for the number of subs that
 I
 have.  For that cost, I should have .15 of a programmer dedicated
 to fixing my problems, all day, every day.

 When the original owner/developer started this thing, he put in underground

 The roads are not county property, they are owned by the HOA that runs the
 development.    Anyone familiar with what legal entanglements and

 1-2 miles, at absolute most, and it would pass 30 to 40 homes / yet

 Where do I look for best practices for build out, who's done this kind of

Re: [WISPA] Testing radios

2009-12-21 Thread Kevin Neal
We usually just test a few miles from a tower.  A laptop, canopy,
extension cord, spare parts and tools.  It's not soo much fun in
winter weather, but we make sure that signals are within 3-5 db of
each other.  We know what we should be getting from our test location,
we also run a 30 second bandwidth test as well.

 Hi,

 We tend to get radios back from techs with notes that say something like
 bad radio or low signal.  Things that aren't obviously broken tend
 to sit around and collect dust.

 Does anyone have a efficient way to test 802.11a/b/g radios?  Most of
 our equipment is MikroTik, so my plan was to do a conductive test
 between a known good radio and the radio in question with 80 dB or so of
 attenuator stacked between them, check the rx signal on both ends, and
 run a bw test for a set amount of time.  Is there anything else that I
 should take into consideration, or perhaps a completely different
 approach?

 I was looking at these attenuators...

 http://www.minicircuits.com/pdfs/UNAT-30+.pdf

 I don't think precision is really an issue as long as they're consistent
 from one test to another.

Re: [WISPA] health insurance

2009-12-05 Thread Kevin Neal
Call me cheap I guess.  I have a $229/mo plan for my family of 4 (5 in
a week or so).  $7500 deductible.  Next year my rate will drop, after
the insurance company re-rates their HSA rates I'll be moving to the
$10,000 deductible plan, that will be an absolutely no benefits until
10k is paid.  I don't mind it, I'd rather not have to pay the extra
per month.

Just a quick comparison, if I pay $229/mo vs $650/mo, if I max my
deductible for the year I pay $1698 more than Marlon, but if I only
hit $750, I saved $5052.  I'd rather put money in the bank and have it
work for me than giving it to an insurance company.

 Simply for the sake of my understanding, why would you choose to

 our current employees) to get us under the 25 employee limit and . 
 offer less benefits for everyone in the company 

 At the end of the day, $412 / employee is not a whole lot of money,
 especially when you are talking about a benfit like Health
 Insurance...
 If you are looking to have some means of off-setting the additional $$$,
 would'nt it me easier and better for everyone if you reduced your Company
 provided 100% coverage to let's say 90%, and have the Employee pay the
 other
 10% ?


 What are your current costs for Health Insurnace ?   We are seeing
 typically
 $300-$400 / month for a single male, and $1300-$1450 /month for a family

 From what we have been seeing in the last few years, including our
 present
 coverage increase (approx $8100/year for 3 families)... $412 /year
 increase
 would be a Blessing and a Christmas present...

 Hi,

 What are everyone else's plans if this new health insurance plan gets
 passed
 in Congress? We fall in the 25-100 employee category, so they are
 estimating
 our health insurance costs would go up $412 per employee for us (we
 already
 cover 100% of the costs for our employees). So, basically this would
 force
 us to go to a subcontractor type work-force (at least for 5-10 of our
 current employees) to get us under the 25 employee limit and offer less
 benefits for everyone in the company.

 Once again, it seems our government is stepping in where it doesn't
 belong.
 Either take over the health care system 100% (including funding it), or
 leave it alone.

 Actually, it's far better than cost-effective.

 It's flexible, in both hardware and capabilities.    Firewall, routing,
 routing daemons, and other things.

 Frankly, I find the physical aspects of the Airmax stuff frustratingly
 limited.

 I've grown fond of my immense ability to do creative stuff with Star-OS and
 a wide array of physical forms - especially since much of my network relies
 on low power consumption.

 AirMax, deployed as an AP and clients...  seems ok.    But that's only a

 Availability is supposedly resolved.  We'll see.

 Routing... there is a full SDK.  You can do anything you want on those

 routing/firewalling.

 I just can't see a home grown solution like you're proposing being

Re: [WISPA] Router suggestions

2009-09-20 Thread Kevin Neal
WRT54G post Cisco buyout, yes, major major problems.
One of the things I tell our customers when we sell them the WRT54GL is:
 We've been in this business and been through a lot of different routers and
these WRT54GL's have the best proven track record in our experience.  There
may be other products from all kinds of vendors that may work just as well,
but we have experience with these and KNOW they work well.

These are routers we purchase and keep in stock on all of our trucks and at
our office to sell, we don't load any custom firmware on them, and rarely do
we have to walk someone through upgrading the firmware.  I have had a few
problems with customers having FTP issues though, the quick fix is to update
the firmware in the router, if that fails we always have DD-WRT or Tomato.

 the available facilities you route through.  That's cost, not the price
 charged to the customer.  A route that is entirely upper east coast will
 drive you nuts in cost and facilities because it's saturated but if you
 route to the Midwest it's cheap.  You can easily have one end that is crazy
 expensive and another end that is dirt cheap, the price the salesperson will
 charge will be depending on the estimated total cost of the 2 points.  AND,
 more time than not, the provider has to lease facilities from another
 company to make the path.  Lots and lots and lots of variables.

 Subject: [WISPA] T1 bandwidth pricing

 Hi friends,
 I'm conducting some market research and would like to know what T1 pricing
 between different cities for corporate VPNs has been in your area over the
 past few months / years, I would also like to know what the breakdown of the
 pricing is (capacity lease, support, equipment, etc.) any information you
 have on this would be greatly appreciated.

 PS this is not limited to US markets

 Thanks

 Femi

 Which one? They probably want you to sign up for Smart Network Data

 that sort of thing.

 If you're running all your email stuff in-house, it's a good idea to
 sign up for that, and AOL's Feedback Loop. The latter is prone to
 false-positives (basically any time an AOL user hits the spam button,
 you get notified, and it turns out many AOL users hit that button for
 literally every email they receive) but it can be a valuable tool.

Re: [WISPA] Routerboard 333 vs 433

We have the 333 deployed in a bunch of situations, they work pretty

they're old style now and don't have the near the performance of the

 I've lost one 112 to Ethernet port failure, and a 133 to unknown causes

 My 333's, 411's and 433's have been flawless.

 What a waste of electricity and it lowers Tower uptime in a power outage.
 I know you could just use a charging unit connected to deep cycle

  Hi All,
 
  Got a strange one here.
 
  I have a 5830 AP with 4 customers on it.  3 have no complaints, 1 gets
  300
  to 400k downloads and 1000 to 3000 uploads.
 
  All links are less than one mile and are within 1/4 mile of each other.
 
  Two are right across the street from each other.
 
  Yesterday we had a few strange things happen so I went hunting for the
  cause.  While looking I noticed customer B was my top bandwidth user and
  he
  stayed there for at least 30 minutes.
 
  As a part of trying to get customer A working better I thought I'd try
  turning off customer B (across the street and on the same AP as customer
  A).
 
  I shut down customer B (oh yeah, all CPE are Fox SE 5800) and ran a
  speed
  test at customer A.  Now they got 6000 down and 5000 up.  Turn customer
  B
  back on and customer A went back down to unusable service.
 
  Here's the strange part, I can run the same speed test at customer B and
 
  they get good speeds all of the time.  8000 to 9000 down, 7000 to 8000
  up.
  Theoretical max on the Trango system.  So I don't think that they are
  causing this problem due to steady usage.
 
  The only thing that's popping out in my mind is that customer B has a
  newer
  radio (it was replaced last year or so).  Could this somehow be a
  firmware
  issue?
 
  Neither customer has a programmed preference over the other one at the
  AP
  level.  The other two customers on the AP haven't called with problems.
 
  If anyone can call me with some advice this am I'd sure appreciate it.
  509.988.0260  Customer A (the nearly dead one) has a big project due
  this
  afternoon and I'm at a loss so far.
 
  Thanks,
  marlon

 While I am not certain that it is a Tranzeo issue, I do know that it is
 something we are able to cause 100% of the time only on Tranzeo units.
 It is possible that it is something in our configuration but so far we
 not found anything.

 Steve Barnes - Do you have any setups where you are have staros for the
 AP and a Tranzeo unit in router mode at the client?

 Kurt - we have no evidence that it is related to P2P being installed on
 the client machine.  We see the problem on any type of download
 regardless of how it is done.

 We are having no problem with any Tranzeo equipment that is set to

 CPQs are in router mode.  There is a definite problem that we can

 replicate 100% of the time.



 We have eliminated all of the causes of the problem with the exception

 of the Tranzeo CPQ.



 All units have 4.0.2 and we do not believe the problem is with an

 upgrade in the firmware because we can replicate the problem in

 version 3.6.7 as well.



 I just moved one client today that was in router mode back to bridge

 mode because they couldn't do their UPS shipping until we did.

 Apparently, we may need to move all of them to bridge mode but with

 hundreds of units out there I really don't like that idea.

Re: [WISPA] OT: Cisco 7200 Gigabit Ethernet Cards?

2009-06-03 Thread Kevin Neal
I've found Cisco ports are more expensive than a Mikrotik distribution
router.  We currently have a Cisco handling BGP and upstream connections,
then we distribute it using a switch to multiple Mikrotik boxes that
distribute and route(OSPF) to our various backhauls.  I'd cringe to think
what it would cost for us to run all of our radios at our NOC into a cisco.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster

2009-04-27 Thread Kevin Neal
I have found Ingram Micro to be more expensive than Newegg every time, with
the exception of that 5% off we got.  This is only on Linksys gear, we have
had too many problems with D-Link, Netgear, Belkin etc  We standardized
on only selling the WRT54GL anymore.  Charge the customer $90 installed,
we'll replace it and handle the RMA during the first year.  Once we explain
that we've found these to be the best bang for the buck most customers will
purchase them.

I wouldn't count on a discount from a reseller like Newegg... go to one of
the distributors like Ingram Micro...  there are four options:

When I had my own company as a side job thing I had an account with a disty
(I can't recall who) so I could get better pricing on D-link gear... made it
so I could sell it much cheaper to my end users (granted Best Buy et. Al.
also got those mail in rebates which I didn't... so they could work out in
the long run being cheaper on a one/two scale)

The WRE54G is out of stock at Newegg, also, don't count on saving much 
on larger orders.  We order WRT54GL's, the biggest discount we got was 
5% when we ordered 150 of them, and they won't do that anymore.

Here is the Linksys solution:

Looks like its $100 MSRP... I bet you could purchase them in larger

small form factor.  Not 802.11a though.

RouterOS.  We can ship it configured to connect to your AP and

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.

Subject: [WISPA] is this router overloaded?

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
on it is around 40-50%.

Re: [WISPA] Another online backup thread

2009-02-20 Thread Kevin Neal
We have RBS setup, the product as a whole is unrefined and cumbersome, but
they do have some nice features.  I haven't experimented with any other
software, so I don't know what else is out there.

Their BitBackup requires local storage of a database, so if you're backing
up 50G of data for a customer, they better have an extra 50G of hard drive
space for the local copy.  We've just gone to selling them an external USB
drive when they signup.  As well as doing the initial dump to an external
drive then copy it direct to the server when we get back to the office.

IMO stay as far away from remote-backup.com's product as possible. We bought
into their front and it turned out to be a very unrefined product that was
cumbersome to install on the customer side and their support was practically
non-existent. I've heard of other people having success with RBS but we
dropped it and wrote off our losses after much frustration.

I'm looking at remote-backup.com.  It seems to be what I'm looking for, but
I'd like to know what other, similar options are out there.

It must not be cumbersome for either myself or the client.
It must have encryption at all levels (transport and storage).
It must have sold online backup in mind, not an enterprise backup program.
It must work on Windows clients, hopefully Linux clients too.

 I wanted a red or blue one with a v8 (327 and those one's HAUL).  
 Had to settle for a completely loaded white one though.  Leather, DVD 
 for the kids, heated seats and seat backs, blinkers on the mirrors, 
 air ride suspension (this rig rides better than any car I've ever 
 had) etc.  It's also nearly a foot and a half longer than the 
 standard version.  So when you get one make sure you look for the one 
 with the 3rd seat.

Re: [WISPA] How many switches can do RSTP?

2009-01-23 Thread Kevin Neal
We are using a routed backbone with Mikrotik's OSPF. We have Mikrotik
working without problems with product from ImageStream, Cisco, and Juniper.
I haven't tried anything MPLS yet, we've been too busy to experiment with
it.

The only troubles I've ran into with Mikrotik OSPF has been the occasional
reboot required when we have a backhaul link flapping constantly, as well as
some problems with some redundant customer routing.  We have several
customers that are paying extra for redundant links, we are giving them a
/30 and installing a Mikrotik router with OSPF running.  We've had a time or
two where our normal traffic would route through their connection instead of
our backbone(not sure why), but that was fixed when we started filtering the
advertised routes.

I don't remember who it was, but about two years ago I visited with a WISP
that was running several thousand customers on a bridged network (STP IIRC).
They were using the MAC dst-nat functionality to forward all broadcasts to
their PPPoE server at one end of the network, they said it was working very
well for them.
