Before I get slammed with reply's; CORRECTION: Both StarOS and Mikrotik
have competing hardware to UBNT.
Sorry, I know Mikrotik has put a lot of money in the 133c boards and
they don't want to open it to other hardware that competes. I don't
know about Lonnie, and mean no dis-respect. I don't
That's really too bad because this unit WOULD BE very valuable to me if it
could run StarOS v3. It's small, powerful, dual-pol, has LEDs to speed up
the install/site survey (I know that LEDs aren't everything in a link),
reasonably priced, FCC-Certified, etc.
HOWEVER, StarOS v3 is my
The whitelisted me, that lasted about 48 hours. Got whitelisted again and
things, so far, seem to be ok.
The part that really pisses me off is that they can't tell me what is
getting us black listed! Other than spam. I have NO records of anyone
other than one customer with a virus sending
That is funny that both Mikrotik and StarOS are walking from UBNT. If I
remember correctly, it was the amount of storage on the board that they
had issues with. Mikrotik has a little more motive because they are
selling competing hardware.

Travis,
Another good topic
In this specific case... I do not believe it is related to antenna, as it is
an antenna that we have previously used and tested to work equally with
5.3Ghz without any degregation.
We went through this last spring, when realizing that most of the easilly
I would think that it might also be good to know the total number of
potential customers that the wireless network footprint covers. A system
that covers a potential of 100,000 customers/households would be worth a lot
more than one which might only have a maximum of 5,000 households able to be

I'm in the final stages of selling my WISP and the valuation I set was
one year gross plus cost of infrastructure outside of radio's. This
includes land, leases and structures. It's a lot better for WISP's then
it is for ISP's who are getting about 6 months gross income, period. It
wasn't hard
Forbes,
Thank you for having the awareness and taking the time to write your
elected representatives. Your action sets an excellent example. If 10%
of the WISP community would just follow your example, I think we would
see a positive change for the better in our industry and for the
Define system.

Dual POL has been a HOT topic for years.
One of the other big disadvantages that never materialized.
I actually had found a manufacturer that made a custom EXCELLENT Case that
included a Dual POL antenna, perfect for CPE. WAR2s and 4s fit easilly.
Cost around $70.
I walked away from the
Tom,
It does sound like your problem is due to receiver overload. Try
contacting DCI Digital Communications Inc. http://www.dci.ca/. Their
website doesn't show a 5.3 GHz bandpass filter but they may be able to
make some up for you. BTW, antennas generally have the same performance

Still looking for used Trango 900mhz AP's. Please reply off-list.

I agree market size is a factor, but it will not apply to all candidates.
Time in business also matter. Actually longer in business works agaisnt you,

They ask... If there is so much potential market, after all these years, why

What are you suggesting here Forbes? If it's just truth in advertising
then I'm behind you 100%.
If however you are suggesting that an ISP should not be able to block

I have been searching my archives for a couple of days.
Someone posted the URL for looking up the Earth Stations and coordinates
that are using the 3650 band.
Would someone please repost this?
Thanks in advance

Chuck,
Thanks for the link but it is not what I am looking for. There are a number
of Earth Stations that use C band Satellite Dishes that are to be avoided
with 3650 MHz stuff. I saw a link that showed the locations and their GPS
coordinates.
Ps It was great talking with you at ISPCON.

It was mentioned back during the CALEA hype that some had considered or
did add a CALEA fee on their Internet Service bills. I'm curious if this
was done and if it was successful (without upsetting customers or
creating too many billing inquiries). Feel free to reply off list if you
don't want to
My take is that this is the that fateful first step on a very
slippery slope. Today they rate shape the traffic, next week they out
right block it. I agree that any provider needs to use what ever tools
they have to keep users in line. The problem that Forbes is pointing
out (I think) is that they
