[WISPA] Coverage west of Pittsburgh PA

2017-02-21 Thread Robert Dillon
Do any of you offer coverage in the area near the western PA area near the
Pittsburgh airport?  We have a customer that moved business into that area
and is struggling to find a 15/15Mb business connection.  There are no other
carriers in that area providing what he needs so I told him I'd see what I
could do.

 

If you offer service or know of someone that does please reply to me off
list.

 

Thank you.

Re: [WISPA] Static IP Pricing

2017-02-02 Thread Robert Dillon
We also charge $5/IP/Mo for residential customers and one free IP for
business customers with $5/IP/Mo for additional IPs.  For subnet routed
customer IPs we do each on a case by case basis but that is very rare for
us.

Subject: Re: [WISPA] Static IP Pricing

 

When I was at TWC, we would give out up to a /24 to a customer if they could
justify it. Beyond that, we'd push them to go to ARIN. This was on fiber, if
they were on coax, it was super expensive (like $50+ for a /29)

There was list pricing on the static IPs, but it was one of the first things
to be discounted in negotiation. That being said, this was ~7 years ago. I
would look at what it will cost you to buy a /24 on the auction block, and
charge enough to be able to replace your IPs as you run out - that would be
the simplest justification. It's hard to compare to AT&T, as they probably
have a lot of unused space, and a lot more resources to be able to obtain
more.

Agreed, but I need to be able to justify this pricing somehow. What does
AT&T charge if you get their Fiber MIS product? Is it unlimited with
justification or what? What are most fiber providers doing even the ones
that have extremely large blocks?

Typical cost is around $1-2/IP/Month with various fiber providers.

I've been planning to charge something like $10-20/IP/Mo for commercial in
order to only sell to people who really need it.

Comcast Business class cable internet charges

What do fiber providers charge?

 

I have a potential client that currently has a /27 with his current
provider, and would like at least a /27 or preferably a /26 from us.

 

We only have a /21 worth of space from ARIN.

We have used a Century Link 100Mb circuit for years since it was taken over 
from Qwest in our area.  It is a solid circuit, but quite pricey.  We have 
moved away from it a few years ago.  Per megabit went down to a 1/4 of the 
price of Century Link.

Does anyone have experience working with CenturyLink in regards to getting a 
proper circuit from that will legally allow you to resell bandwidth on it? In 
particular I know of a remote area that can get residential DSL but for miles 
and miles after that there is nothing. My hope is CenturyLink would convert 
that a business service would allow me to resell it. I'd be willing to extend 
from there outwards into areas that are completely without non satellite or 
cellular service.



Some quick Google work shows up only 1 relevant result and it would seem I 
would need to be a CLEC to make that work.



Being the peach they are usually to work with just looking for what others have 
experienced before I try to work through some phone trees at CenturyLink.

Yep, It was for re-distribution. Before the Merger/buyout we were quoted 800 a 
month for a 100mb Port with 100/100 Capacity. After the merger

the price is $4000 a month.

Thanks for the replies guys. So from both of your perspectives you were able to 
get legal service from them but you either had performance or cost issues?



Thanks,

Does anyone have experience working with CenturyLink in regards to getting a 
proper circuit from that will legally allow you to resell bandwidth on it? In 
particular I know of a remote area that can get residential DSL but for miles 
and miles after that there is nothing. My hope is CenturyLink would convert 
that a business service would allow me to resell it. I'd be willing to extend 
from there outwards into areas that are completely without non satellite or 
cellular service.



Some quick Google work shows up only 1 relevant result and it would seem I 
would need to be a CLEC to make that work.



Being the peach they are usually to work with just looking for what others have 
experienced before I try to work through some phone trees at CenturyLink.



Thanks,



Tim

Looking at acquiring AirFiber back haul but I am concerned that the front of
the antenna is very flat and that snow would stick to it and degrade and
possibly take down the link?

Has anyone seen this 

We will be using them on a 2 mile link and need 99.999 uptime

Not sure I understand the question in the sense WiMAX does not
belong in the discussion. WiMAX was always at best a nichey

by carriers.

Just as Wi-Fi has subsumed pretty much everything else in
local area wireless (and is now in fact synonymous with WLAN),
LTE will do the same for PMP outdoor beyond commonly accepted
Wi-Fi ranges (WISP Wi-Fi ranges are not commonly accepted in a
macro market sense, but rather exist as a proprietary model
for a deeply niche market).

Re: [WISPA] Quick Question: Title II, for or against?

2014-11-19 Thread Robert
Ah the days of Covad, Northpoint, etc..   Racing to get high speed
internet to needy customers on VC dollars not knowing that behind their
backs a quick regulation change would make all that easy pickings for
the incumbents...   Those who do not learn from history are doomed to
repeat it..  Fred, please gaze into your magic ball of the past and give
us a clue to our future?  Are our collective necks starting to hover
over the ax block?

 You asked the question very poorly, so there is no one correct answer.

 "Broadband" is an adjective. You don't regulate adjectives, you regulate
 nouns.  Broadband what? This is the fallacy of today's public discourse
 -- they are using this adjective as a noun without the noun, so
 different people use it to have different referents.

 I think I'm in pretty close harmony with the WISPA position here, given
 that Steve Coran chose me to help him give his NN talk in Vegas last
 month based on my detailed Comments on the topic to the FCC.  And I've
 been writing and Commenting on this for years. Several years ago I told
 the FCC that they were using this adjective as a noun, but that they
 could separate the two primary implied nouns by using a Spanish-language
 convention.  El Broadband would refer to the physical facility, the high
 speed transmission medium. La Broadband would refer to the content of
 the facility, including Internet service delivered over it.  (If you
 don't know Spanish, "el radio" is a device and "la radio" is a
 program.)  But in lawyer terms, El Broadband is the telecommunications
 component, and La Broadband is the information service riding atop it.

 The reason NN is a Thing is that the FCC, in 2005, threw away the law
 (TA96) and decided that telephone companies could stop being common
 carriers, stop providing ISPs with El Broadband (raw DSL), and simply
 sell La Broadband as a vertically-integrated service with exclusive
 access to their formerly common-carrier facilities.  So typical

I'm not a monopoly...I have done nothing to deserve heavy handed

This "Net Neutrality" BS is just that BS...They are trying to "fix" a 
problem that doesn't exist yet.


The real problem is that consumers have only the CableCo and TelCo as 
options for purchasing internet.  The government instead of regulating 
should encourage competition in the free market.  WISPs are one such 
competitor.


The government should also stop turning a blind eye to mergers like 
the Comcast & Time Warner merger that only exacerbates the problem and 
will lead us to the MaBell situation where you can get internet from 
one source only.

Here is my confusion on this issue. Everyone is acting like it is
the great harbinger for Internet companies. One of the biggest
problems I have is lack of clear information. I'm not saying I
have any of those answers for certainty but I will point a few
things I have picked up meanwhile donning my flame proof cap.

  * Requires us to be able to provide per service reporting of
traffic (I think of it as a port span or flow-analysis of a
particular service user, which is fairly easy to do and you
should already be able to do this)
  * Talks about potentially a 16% fee on service. This will not
make you shut your doors big or small because every provider
will have to do this and I can assure you in the long run no
one is eating that cost but the consumer. Also this is
fundamentally good for rural Americans. Rural areas have phone
service because of that fund when used properly. Now it would
include proper broadband access. This is the only risk I see
to the WISP model. There is nothing that says you can't play
both sides and become a participant in utilizing the USF to
build out infrastructure even if that means doing scary things
like diving into ground models like fiber.
  * The biggest one I have is fair treatment of traffic. To me
this is the default way to run an ISP. I don't want an ISP
that slows down certain traffic and I definitely don't want to
be the service provider that does that. I'd rather see more
guaranteed bandwidth numbers and a flatter pricing scheme even
if that means a higher cost to the consumer. What I mean by
that is if you deploy 100mbps of service to an area and you
start signing up users and all the sudden you are promising
everyone 20% over what you can provide them at the head-end
don't use the words "up to" in your service agreement. Either
adjust the service speeds to control the talking on a head-end
radio or make adjustments to your architecture to accommodate
the bursts in traffic. What that might mean is more smaller
cells to service an area and yes that costs money. Nothing is
free in this world so if it costs X dollars to provide Y
services to consumers that want Y then such is life. No on
complains when they need to upgrade their electrical service
at home because they want to run more equipment or devices. If
that means I as the consumer that wants to stream HD Netflix
in 4 rooms has to upgrade my service then so be it. The
provider (You/Me) can then build out our infrastructure to
accommodate that need at the cost you and your customer agree
on or he/she just decides that their bandwidth needs doesn't
match the price point to achieve what they are trying to do
and goes back to buying DVDs through Amazon. This also works
on the upstream, as a small WISP do you really want to be on
the receiving end of a big provider possibly your only option
for decent upstream connectivity to suddenly start slowing
down certain types of traffic? Then you are faced with trying
to provide a service that your customers might demand without
any ability other than potentially an extremely expensive one
to fill that need. I think it is always better to not shape
traffic for customers. Let them manage their connection to the

I guess, if you had any doubt, that this shows with no question the

Darin,
I will have Andrew send you an e-mail from supp...@mtin.net

Just for everyone’s reference if you need to get ahold of “me”
you can do so at the following:
Phone: 317.644.2224 
Email: supp...@mtin.net 

I wrote a little blog post this morning as kind of “therapy”
for me.  As many of you know I have been a principal in a WISP
we started after the failed sale of NDWave to another company.
http://www.mtin.net/blog/?p=50

The sale of ZigWireless has been my latest “project”.  I am
personally invested in this so my future of getting this done
has been a top priority.  So much so that everything else has
suffered as a result.  The life of a WISP. LOL.  I feel like a
“Veteran” after being in the ISP business since 1993.

Just so this isn’t just about me, if anyone wants to know my
thoughts on a sale from a tech perspective hit me up off list
and I will be glad to share.

Subject: [WISPA] Justin Wilson?

I have been trying to get ahold of Justin Wilson who
started a project for me in April and he was out of
commission for a little bit but now I haven't heard from
him since. I have called his cell #, sent him 5 emails to
j...@mtin.net  with no response and
I don't know how to get ahold of him. I see he has sent
emails out to the list multiple times in the last few
weeks but he's never responded to me.

Anyone have any special tricks to get him to talk? My
project is quite simple and he said it would take no more
than 2 hours tops but he hasn't done anything further for
me. Thanks

Re: [WISPA] package ideas

Always check to see what the price add-ons are for those services...
Is AT*T charging the $5/month modem fee?  How about the USF fee?   That
$34.95 could be closer to $45 when they get done and that needs to be
clear to who you are selling to...

Re: [WISPA] Odd Speed Results

2014-04-18 Thread Robert
Ubiquiti web test = udp and Mikrotik = udp or tcp so which are you using
on the Mikrotik side udp or tcp?IF you are using tcp on the Mikrotik
test, most likely you have a lot of packet loss and the tcp is spending
a lot of time in retransmission.   If it's udp vs. udp then start
checking your connections   Test from the UBNT to another UBNT on
the wired side....

Re: [WISPA] CAF-USF-StateTax for WISPs

2014-04-16 Thread Robert Andrews
Be as confusing as possible and that way get the least push back on a 
made up charge...
After all the fake charges on cell invoices, dsl invoices, and cable 
invoices, what would make you think that this was any different? Just 
because you are in the biz and might know better?

I am sure that there are thousands of companies that just go on paying 
these extra fees because they look legit and there is something that 
might be related in the regs...

Re: [WISPA] Solar powered repeater kit

2014-04-08 Thread Robert
Like I said, the newegg 100watt panels ended up being free shipping,
that made the difference for us.   For larger panels we are only 3 hours
drive from wholesale solar, so we drive up to Shasta and pick them up.
Last time we got 5 350 watt panels at .85/watt!

2014-04-08 Thread Robert
Honestly I have no clue what your exposure is like...   Go off the sites
at the solar panel stores that describe it and compare it to Northern
Nevada...  BUT if it's not critical to the customer, or the customer is
willing to swap a battery or two out when things get bad, you can save a
lot of cash.   We also have a set of batteries that are always ready to
go to any site(s) that get in battery trouble to make it a non-issue.
That's what we do with the solar site batteries when we feel we aren't
getting max performance out of them Replace them and they go in
trickle backup..

It's actually worse than that...   2x124 amp hour batteries...   2
MTMtl5, and RB433AH with 1 watt 2.4 radio in it.  More like 25 watts
full load.  nominal is more like 12 watts.   1 100 Watt panel.But
again, it's very sunny here.I have a couple of remote locations that
run 8 AMPS@12V 7x24x365 solar and people said we couldn't run them on
what we do...

Re: [WISPA] Solar powered repeater kit

2014-04-08 Thread Robert
It gets to the key of any solar project, what's the exposure.   We are
out in NV where 100 watt panel and 2x124 amp hour batteries is more than
enough all year to span cloudy sessions.   We get one full day and we
are recharged and rarely go a week without one day of enough sun to get
another week of run time until we get the period that everything is
fully charged.   More panel gets you back up faster so Sam's setup will
get him back to normal in 1/3 the time = 3x the clouds.

BTW set your solar panels for the maximum sun declination.  That's when
days are the shortest and the need for power is the greatest and usually
the weather is the worst.   It also helps with the snow issue.  By the
time the sun is higher the days are longer and you make up for the bad
angle with more exposure/better weather...

Re: [WISPA] Solar powered repeater kit

2014-04-08 Thread Robert
Yes,
We got a pair of 100 Watt panels at a great price off newegg.com  , no
shipping, which for solar panels was a deal maker! Only used one panel.
  We build the mounts with Home Depot Superstrut and 1" conduit. ~$50
We used

http://thesolarstore.com/charge-controllers-charge-controllers-morningstar-prostar-charge-controller-volt-p-455.html
  ~$100

And a Walmart 124 Amp hour battery...  ~$100

Good for 1.4 weeks no sun..   We use Mikrotik so we get remote voltage
that way, use a 750UP for that with UBNT, but be sure and correct the
voltage on your monitoring...   You are working off 12V so you have to
worry about your amperage through the 750UP, but with UBNT gear that
shouldn't be a problem..  MT radios are a problem at 12V...   So we use
a 12->24V converter.  ($70)

We put it in a Walmart plastic tub.  The one that is strong enough to
stand on. ~$30

We figured we saved about $400 vs buying a pre-built solution.  More
like $700 over Tycon's solution.

Panels were $299 for 2 they are still there.  But just saw this which is
a good deal too!

Web on UBNT is a UDP test..   Apples and oranges   As the shell

switching the MT test to UDP to get a better comparison.

 10M.  The processors are at < 30% on each side.
 I am at a total loss as to why I get the radically different speeds.  I
 can not anything that looks odd.  The link used to work really well.
 Not sure when this issue started, but I am thinking it may be getting
 progressively worse.
 Any idea what I should be looking for?

Re: [WISPA] Odd Speed Results

2014-04-07 Thread Robert
I didn't think the shell based speedtest would give those numbers
without limiting out the cpu.   Were you using the web based speed test?

Re: [WISPA] 8x8 antenna for ubnt?? pic attached

2014-03-18 Thread Robert
I realized a while ago that I would like to know the characterization of
dual polarity antennas in both polarities..   i.e.   On a dual polarity
antenna the Vertical polarity has a horizontal and vertical coverage and
the Horizontal polarity has a horizontal and vertical coverage.   Is
this something I can find out or are the numbers for vertical and
horizontal good for both antennas?   This is important for us.

Thank you,

These can usually be made more accurate for greater bandwidths by giving
a variety of download file sizes for different pipe sizes..   Usually
very easy programming...  If you wouldn't mind sharing the source...

I believe they are allowed to xmit at up to 6 watts, similar to clear
wire   I loved thinking about the power levels coming out of clear
wire antennas sitting on peoples desks next to where they work for 8
hours.

I just recommended HomeFusion service to a prospective customer.
Buried deep in the pine trees, they had one slot that a competitor was
able to deliver service through.   This competitor is so bad they
_never_ answer their phone, have not upgraded technology in 8 years and
go down for as much as a week out of four.   We can't cover them, none
of the others that do decent service will.  But they can and do use a 4g
verizon card in a router to get service.   They pay cell phone rates
from verizon so I told them about the fusion service as it will give
them 2x data at about the same price and will not have to be on a
charger all the time. 900 will not reach them.  Oh well...  Even the
devil gets his due...

I am starting to really like the way that itelite presents itself.
This antenna is a good example.  It doesn't say it's a 90 or a 120.   It
just gives the plot and the -3 AND -6 points and you can call it
whatever you want.   Good plots, plenty of data figure it out
yourself...

I believe the point is, unless that part of the data sheet is also out
of date ( in which case why have a data sheet? )..  The IDU only has
10/100 ethernet and is going to be really pressed to do 200meg full
duplex.   And if you can do it through that please let all those UBNT
owners who are limited by that know how!   :)

Re: [WISPA] Solat panels: series or parallel?

2013-11-19 Thread Robert
Eric has the idea spot on, I'll follow up with what a lot of
off-gridders around here in N. Nevada had tutored me on.   That is the
losses and controlling them.  Number one with a bullet is loss from
throwing electrons down wires..   You know it from poe losses and it's a
100 times worse in solar applications.   The biggest gain through using
serial panels is in reduction of current loss through the wires between
the panels and to the charge controller.   You would have to have
monster wires to be as efficient as 3 amps down reasonably sized wires
at 120 volts as 15 amps at 24.   And as you go from the charge
controller to the batteries and you eat away your 5 amps ( at 24 Volts?
  That is Big ) you still have 10 amps between the controller and your
batteries.   Get Very Large Cables, as large as the controller will
accept.   MPPT controllers are the ticket unless you have tracking
arrays, in which case the guys here go back to pwm for better results.
 I haven't figured out why, they just show me the numbers that show it.
   MPPT controllers running in serial also have the advantage that you
can mix and match your panels without losing the output of your large
panels into the small ones..

Lastly we angle our panels in the winter to the lowest sun angles as
that is when the transit is shortest and the need the greatest.

 Comcast needs the FCC to open up the 5 GHz spectrum band to power
 next-generation Wi-Fi services that could allow it to deliver
 wireless broadband at speeds of up to 1 Gbps, SVP of Business
 Development Tom Nagel testified at a House Energy and Commerce
 hearing on Wednesday.

 Nagel disclosed in his prepared testimony that Comcast has expanded
 the number of Wi-Fi access points for Xfinity high-speed Internet
 customers to 350,000. The nation's largest cable MSO also began
 deploying wireless gateways from Cisco earlier this year that Comcast
 has said may be able to power millions of neighborhood hotspots.

 While Comcast already is already using the 5 GHz band, Nagel said it
 needs more of the unlicensed spectrum to meet demand from subscribers
 for Wi-Fi. It faces potential opposition from Toyota and other
 automobile manufacturers who want to use the 5 GHz band to deliver
 next-generation connected car applications, including applications
 that would warn drivers of collision threats.

 Toyota principal researcher John Kenney raised concerns about
 possible interference from Wi-Fi services at Wednesday's hearing.
  "We have been actively engaged with the Wi-Fi community and other
 stakeholders who are exploring possible sharing solutions that will
 alleviate any risk of harmful interference from unlicensed devices.
 But we're not there yet and it's going to take a bit more time to see
 if we can get there," Kenney said in his prepared testimony.

Simple questions:

 1) Does anyone have experience running systems with mixed clients?  
i.e. Dual polarity AP and mixed single and dual polarity clients?

 2) Is anyone willing to summarize their experiences?

Unfortunately the days of having IP address space "In case" are long
gone...   ARIN will probably implement "use it or lose it" as the next
step before address exhaustion in IPV4...

Re: [WISPA] Latest trend for heavy wooded areas

2013-08-22 Thread Robert
Funny (or not depending upon your point of view ) thing is that the best
results for throughput/penetration with 900Mhz was with the original
SR9's from UBNT.  Better throughput by 2-3x than XR9 but less
interference resistance but being able to run smaller channels with the
same throughput made up for that.  All that was from before 900 rollout
from the utilities and the 900 band turning into complete junk when the
power meters do updates and other heavy usage..  We tried the other UBNT
gear with not nearly the same results, but with and without external
antennas.

Re: [WISPA] Ubiquiti Rocket Titanium

2013-04-06 Thread Robert
I would argue that WISP industry standard is 12-28 V poe, as the
majority of the equipment that vendors distribute use power supplies in
that voltage range.   48 V is not that common amid the non-telco   When
you get to the pricey suppliers the 48af V poes ARE the standard.   But
that's a cost that we don't want to throw at our customers   I like
standards as long as there are implementations of those standards that
take advantage of production quantities to lower costs not lock in
higher prices.   i.e. Ethernet vs. token-ring   IMNSHO...  I'm not
saying there aren't advantages to 48V when you need the watts.   But did
the Titanium really have a bigger wattage requirement?   Everything
about it that I saw said it's the same inside as the plastic.

I have a Mikrotik.  I used to use Wireless Orbit and they did it the way I

I want a solution so users can easily get online via their

I agree with one of the other posts.  Tell the customer to tell them they
have an Ethernet connection.  It is true and eliminates the issue of medium.
If they require DSL, I guess it is a good thing you are not a fiber
provider.  That wouldn't be DSL either.

Anything on Central California? That's a big chunk of real estate. Also,
it's important for me to get this updated for our internal records asap.
I've been bull dozed by those big 500 pounders before and it's just a

[WISPA] Tracking Mac

2012-07-05 Thread Robert Canary
How does one do a trace route on MAC. Apparently I have used an IP address 
somewhere and didn't log it. Now when I assign IP I get multiple messages from 
my arpwatch of a IP Flip Flop happening. These coming from AirSpan because I 
found the MAC listed on the AP but it only shows ETH as the source.

I have had only good dealings with PayPal. Yes a little more expensive than 
others, but their API has allowed me to integrate some very gnarly programming 
into our back end. They have always helped with issues, both as a buyer and a 
seller.

Guys...

believe it or not... paypal's rates are really low if you're billing over
3,000 USD a month
AND as an organization like WISPA... someone can just call in and get
negotiated rates using a promo code...

I did it for several organizations i was a part of!

WISPMon and IP Pay handle this for me.
