Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-18 Thread John Thomas
I would tell you to ask the ISP in San Jose about ATT's billing 
practices, but they are no longer in business.
It seems that 1 day they got a bill for some stupid amount of outbound 
minutes for their *inbound only* T-1's and were given hours to pay or 
they would be shut off. They weren't able to react quickly enough and 
ATT pulled the plug. Apparently this has been a common problem as I have 
heard of others in the same boat.

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-18 Thread John Thomas
Unfortunately, the requirements are based on what they think a routing 
slot in the BGP table costs, and they want to keep that manageable.
There has been discussion on the ARIN list about reducing the 
requirement to a /24 for PI space both single and multi homed. The 
thought being that there are probably a lot of people that have a /20 
that only have it because they want PI space and don't want to be locked 
into their ISP.

There is not reason someone couldn't utilize their second T-1, and I am 
not advocating buying it and not using it.
The question becomes, is it worth the money to have a slow connection, 
or no connection at all.
I am not out to start a flame war here. As far as I am concerned, if I 
am a business and I am buying business class service from you, and 
paying business class money for that service, I expect you to have 
redundant upstreams. I do not expect to pay $50 for that service. 
CovadWireless gets $349 per month for business class 1.5 Meg Internet 
access, and they have multiple upstreams.
I realize that this will be argued until the cows come home, but when 
you offer business class service with SLA's you can't do it for $50 per 
month.

Jerry over at Aircloud is doing a 2 meg connection for $179 per month, 
and has been doing right by his clients.

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-18 Thread Rick Kunze
AT&T's deal is based on the loops being under 25 miles.  There's another 
price for 25 to 50 miles.  I think it's also a 2xT minimum or something 
like that.

I'm almost at capacity on my 4xT circuit.  I have been trying to pull a 
tricky deal with them but so far it's not working.  My territory is 
LEC'd by Frontizens as I mentioned earlier.  But my infrastructure 
reaches to the county line where AT&T has a POP.  I was willing to 
literally buy a piece of vacant property next to it so I could 
effectively get a zero mile loop on a DS3.  No dice, even at zero miles, 
the loop minimum remains the same.  So I'm stuck going to a 5x or 6xT. 
The break even on a <25 mile frac DS3 is around $2700/mo.

carriers there (Qwest, AT&T, MCI, Sprint, Lightcore, and Norlight first come

Agreed

I love threads like these touting deals too good to be true.  Many times
they are.  Three things matter when pricing bandwidth:

(1)  Location
(2)  Location
(3)  Location


I'd gladly pay $5300 for 30MB in many, many parts of the country!

Best,


Brad

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-18 Thread eje
I would recommend contacting ACC business. In my experience they give better 
pricing then AT&T direct. But also they could provide a better rate that you 
can bring to AT&T and have them give you a better rate. We used to have ACC but 
when we moved our new circuit is direct through AT&T. In all honesty 
installation and billing was better through ACC even if it was AT&T but they 
deal with one of their resellers and not end user so service is faster and all. 
I'm still waiting for some answers in regards to our install. Took them about 6 
months to get service turned up. With ACC it was told 90 days and at 90 days we 
had service. Cool thing is since ACC is AT&T we just moved our assigned IP's 
and didn't have to renumber. I called the same # for tech support before with 
ACC as I do now for AT&T. I didn't figure that they (AT&T) would price match 
ACC but they did.

I concur.  That REALLY gets their attention.  I did it with my LEC some 
years back when Frontier was still Citizens.  Now I call them 
Frontizens.  Once I filed a single complaint with the PUC, they had to 
dispatch a room full of lawyer types to file formal answers back to the 
PUC.  Saying you'll call the PUC is a very potent threat.

Understood, but there's guys out there that have been running for years with 
hundreds of clients that aren't multihomed.

It is difficult for someone with 20 customers to multihome, yes.

I only call the telco once on billing problems now.  If that doesn't fix it 
I call the PUC.  Actually, I've not even had to do that in years either.  I 
just tell the telco that I'm going to call the PUC right after I get off the 
phone.  They know I'll do it.  grin

That's still a pretty hard thing for a small provider to swallow when they

Hi Mike,

I can't agree more!  

Circuit diversity is really difficult in some remote areas though.  Many
times, bringing redundant circuits in via licensed links is the ONLY way to
get true diversity.

You should engineer your network to take advantage of BGP instead of being
afraid of it.  BGP will bring you closer to more parts of the Internet and
will protect you from routing problems on the net.

oh, and make sure the two lines you get are completely diverse.

Been there done that.

We were getting double billed for about 8 months because they didn't remove
our billing on some old circuits after they forced us to upgrade from the
old SBC network. We paid it for a few months because our account rep said it
would be fixed and they would credit our account for what we over paid. Well
they didn't get it fixed and we stopped paying it, our account rep assured
us it was nothing to worry about and that it would be taken care of. Well 8
months later the ATT collections dept was calling me saying they were going
to turn us over to an outside collection agency. A quick call to my account
rep and then one to the IL commerce commission had the problem taken care of
in about 2 weeks.

Sounds like you have had similar issues with them but you have no idea how
much grief ATT/SBC has caused me over the last 6 yrs we have been in
business. I wish I could get away from them but at this point in time no one
seems to be able to help us out down here.

You should engineer your network to take advantage of BGP instead of being
afraid of it.  BGP will bring you closer to more parts of the Internet and
will protect you from routing problems on the net.

oh, and make sure the two lines you get are completely diverse.

I disagree with that Richey.  You can filter out all but email traffic and
your customers can still have that.  It will be slower, but many customers
can't LIVE without email.

You can set BGP so that 99% of the traffic goes over the bigger pipe if
necessary.

I am curious where people are getting DS3's at $1500 per month? We have a
client that has a point to point DS3 for 2 buildings that are 2 blocks apart

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-17 Thread Chadd Thompson
Been there done that.

We were getting double billed for about 8 months because they didn't remove
our billing on some old circuits after they forced us to upgrade from the
old SBC network. We paid it for a few months because our account rep said it
would be fixed and they would credit our account for what we over paid. Well
they didn't get it fixed and we stopped paying it, our account rep assured
us it was nothing to worry about and that it would be taken care of. Well 8
months later the ATT collections dept was calling me saying they were going
to turn us over to an outside collection agency. A quick call to my account
rep and then one to the IL commerce commission had the problem taken care of
in about 2 weeks.

Sounds like you have had similar issues with them but you have no idea how
much grief ATT/SBC has caused me over the last 6 yrs we have been in
business. I wish I could get away from them but at this point in time no one
seems to be able to help us out down here.

Why should you HAVE to pay for something that you really will never use?   I
read about guys in rural areas that are still paying $700+ for a T1.  Even
at $500/mo that's a lot of money to spend on something you will never really
use.You might as well be down if your DS3 takes a hit and your traffic
rolls over to the T1.

Are you saying that it is not practical for you to get a T-1 so that you 
can legitimately run BGP and multi home?
You can set BGP so that 99% of the traffic goes over the bigger pipe if 
necessary.

I am curious where people are getting DS3's at $1500 per month? We have 
a client that has a point to point DS3 for 2 buildings that are 2 blocks 
apart and they pay $2000 for each end, and that *does not* include 
Internet access, only point to point.

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-17 Thread John Thomas
Yes, I know we could have done that, but this client makes a lot of 
noise when anything resembling a hiccup occurs, and we weren't going to 
take that chance. ATT gets to deal with them when the DS3 has 
problems  :-)

On another note, they have been quite happy with their Covad Wireless 
Internet connection at $599 per month for 3 Meg Burstable to 6 meg. It 
has been down 2 times in the past year. Covad had a couple of nasty 
outages in the past month or so.

The thing that is sad about that is there are Internet providers that 
will install fiber to your premises and deliver the bandwidth for half that.

American Fiber Systems http://www.americanfibersystems.com/  will do a 
10 Meg Internet Connection over fiber to Reno NV for $2000 per month, 
with a $2000 install.

You are missing an opportunity there...

Tell them you will provide them a 300Mbps full duplex link for $3,000

Are you saying that it is not practical for you to get a T-1 so that you 
can legitimately run BGP and multi home?
You can set BGP so that 99% of the traffic goes over the bigger pipe if 
necessary.

I am curious where people are getting DS3's at $1500 per month? We have 
a client that has a point to point DS3 for 2 buildings that are 2 blocks

It would be possible to get a wireless link off the Sears Tower (no, I won't

The provider must always provide you with IPs, assuming you meet

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-17 Thread Richey
/rant on

Dealing with Arin is frustrating if you are a smaller provider in a market
where it's not cost effective to multi home.  Where many people might get a
DS3 for as little as $1500/mo or less, some may pay $3,000+/month.   For
those who are in more rural areas stuck paying high prices for their
connection to the backbone it's just not cost effective to multi home in the
beginning.  

If you are single homed you must use /20 (4096 IPs) before they will give
you an allocation.  I have had problems in the past with a similar situation
where a network was using 12 class c and the upstream refused to allocate
any more IPs saying we needed to go to ARIN.  ARIN would not do anything
until we were using a /20 so it became a chicken or the egg problem.   

The policy should be different for an ISP.   If you are a small ISP
multi-homed or not you should be able to get a /22.  It makes it hard for
the smaller provider to change backbone providers because their IP blocks
are non portable.

I actually did have Brian do ours as well.  My problem had more to do 
with how my internal stuff was organized and my rusty excel skills.  
We'll be much more prepared next time.  Thanks again Brian!

I had the same problem! How can they have some of the error checking
they have, and not accept 0s in fields??? I'm sorry for not mentioning
that when I wrote my email. I was still kind of hot from figuring that
out when I wrote it too.

No. You'll need a /21 worth of existing PA address space in order to 
justify a /20 initial allocation from ARIN. See below:

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN (form 477 comments)

2009-03-16 Thread Dylan Bouterse
If you're asking about form 477 the due date is in 22 minutes.
http://www.fcc.gov/form477/
 
JUST got ours in 20 min ago. Shew!!! Only took 2 guys 7 hours straight
to churn the data into FCC acceptabledata. I'll keep my comments to
myself on this.

Re: [WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-16 Thread Scott Reed
I agree, but did you check the data?
PO Boxes don't convert. It just left them blank.
I had one area where 50% of the addresses came back in the wrong 
county.  I don't think that was Brian's fault at all, but the lookup 
engine just missed.
Some others where we had to "massage" the data to get the format because 
the tracts with decimal did not all get formatted right when we imported 
the data.
Overall a huge thanks to Brian!!!
But even with that it took us probably a total of 30 hours for about 
1500 clients.
The 5 hours was about right for a group of about 300 clients.

I'm sure the FCC guys really appreciate all that free labor that's being 
done for them.   Any bets they get up in front of Congress and praise you 
for doing it?   Or, do you suppose they'll take the credit?

Maybe a good stiff tax hike would make you feel better?

[WISPA] speaking of ARIN

2009-03-16 Thread Marlon K. Schafer

will need more pretty soon in one location.

Anyone know a consultant that can help with the application process?
