[WISPA] Mesh network - what do you think?

2010-01-14 Thread Paolo Di Francesco
Hi All

I am wondering if somebody of you is using mesh networks for hotels or
hospitality sites. What I was wondering is if you tried mikrotik mesh
network, if they are stable in the field, etc.

I was also thinking about ruckus, they are focused on mesh network, so
any input on this topic is very welcome.

Thank you in advance

My hotels have 5 to 25 APs.  Each of them are wired, no mesh.  Some of them
have switches in closets that spider out if it's easier to wire that way.

Then you use WDS or what to make it that a client can jump from one AP to the 
other without loss of connection.\?

Re: [WISPA] Mesh network - what do you think?

2010-01-14 Thread Josh Luthman
Supporting of jumping between APs is not something I ever considered
supporting.

Having said that, when I walk down the halls making sure each AP is working,
I lose 0-3 packets on a constant ping when switching APs and don't lose my
TCP connections.  RDP, speed tests, Dude, etc all stays on from one side of
the hotel to the other and between floors (mostly, some stairwells are
caves).

I would vote for the Ruckus solution. You will be amazed with the results.

I've not gone down this way, but I would also look at Ruckus first.

I know Daniel White of 3db did a lot of Ruckus.  I'd have to guess that his
bosses did, too.

They have phone lines no?

Moto has exactly what you need for this - it's a VDSL-type product with AP's 
that mount to the wall in the room. you would distribute them in a checkerboard 
pattern through the hotel. 

I saw spec sheets on one of the vendor tables (3dB?) downstairs

Re: [WISPA] Mesh network - what do you think?

2010-01-15 Thread Josh Luthman
Ruckus is 802.11 Wifi + mesh.  It has three antennas, I believe.

Heard nothing but it works great.
