LOL We'll see. None of this is mission critical. But I promised feedback so there it is!
On the one hand I love playing with new gear. Figuring things out etc. On the other hand, I've got too many customers out there now. I need gear that just works, intuitively, right out of the box. One of my biggest pet peeves is that there is no standard first IP address for units. Tranzeo uses 192.168.1.100, Deliberant is using 192.168.2.66, Teletronics is 192.168.0.240, SmartBridges used 192.168.0.24 or .22, and the list goes on and on. They also all use different out of the box passwords. It would sure make MY life easier if these two main items were standardized! Things are picking up again. 4 more installs to do this week (pretty good for how rural we are) and it's only Tuesday! I keep thinking we're going to saturate the market and things will slow down a bit. When that finally happens we should be able to make some money. These $1000++ fuel bills are no fun. Not for a one man shop! How are things out east? We don't hear much from you these days! Marlon (509) 982-2181 (408) 907-6910 (Vonage) Consulting services 42846865 (icq) WISP Operator since 1999!
