What a load of garbage. Brad resisted our help at every turn. I was on some of the calls and I personally made a site visit. I even had some of our engineers calling me to ask for my help to get Brad to work with them because he would not call them back and/or refused suggestions or offers of help. Brad repeatedly turned down offers for our guys to come out. From day 1 Brad wanted his consulting customer to go the Trango route (Brad is one of their first customers from back in the Sunstream days) and he did everything in his power to sabotage the effort. We learned that soon enough to the point where I told our guys to stop making any effort; it did not matter what we could do to help, because it was going to be rail-roaded. Even the company he was consulting for recognized it. We eventually simply had to give up.
While I respect his loyalty to his favorite brand, I tire of the disingenuous junk you put out there...followed by the goofy e-smiles you try to insert to say you are only kidding. Leave it to you to turn a thread about DFS2 kicking in being somehow indicative that our radios are failing. Brad, if I said the sky was blue, you'd say it was green just for the sake of argument. Congratulations on being the Judd Dare of 2006-2007.

This doesn't come as a surprise. We deployed a couple VL units and they were all but shut down due to a less than ideal RF environment. Countless hours over days if not weeks with Alvarion's finest in an effort to remedy the situation were unsuccessful. Reflecting back on our particular scenario it was pretty interesting to see how poorly they handled peak business hours when interfering RF activity was high. The radios would then speed up as hostile RF became less active allowing more airtime for the VL to TX & RX. This was arguably one of the more miserable events of our company's entire existence. <sigh> That said it is fair to say, if the RF is clean the VL radios will scream. Best, Brad Ps. I'll be bracing for Patrick's attempts to discredit me for opting out of Alvarion's $1000 class. <grin> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Zachery Wolfinger Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 7:58 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] 5.4 GHz ? Well, since you asked.... ;-) We tried to deploy an Alvarion 5.4GHz B100 link in Indianapolis. DFS2 kicked in big time. To the point that the radios shut down all frequencies and would not communicate with each other. Sitting in the lab they worked fine. It's possible that at least one side is hearing the radar from the Indy airport, but on all frequencies? We pulled the link down and put it back in the lab. Mike Cowan from Wireless Connections remoted in and check it out but didn't see any issues. We are getting ready to deploy these back out to the tower sites so he can see what they are doing in the field.
