From ben at benbalbo.com Wed Jul 1 10:52:14 2009 From: ben at benbalbo.com (Ben Balbo) Date: Wed, 01 Jul 2009 10:52:14 +1000 Subject: [MLB-WIRELESS] BarCampMelbourne: Getting internet access for a weekend Message-ID: <4A4AB33E.3030400@benbalbo.com> Hi folks! BarCampMelbourne (read below for info about this event) is on the 12-13th September at Urban Camp in Royal Park, and they don't provide internet access. My current options are to get a DSL line connected for the weekend (Internode might be open to the idea, being keep open source supporters), get an HSDPA link (as we did in a rural version of this conference 4 months ago) or connect to the Melbourne Wireless network. So, I'm wondering whether using the MW network would be appropriate (it's not like we're creating a persistent node to benefit the group; although that could be an option if Urban Camp are interested in sponsoring the space/power). If appropriate, I'll need to scope the area out for LOS, and was wondering whether anyone would be interested in assisting me. Mike Everest has lent me a dish for testing out connectivity in Portarlington (sorry for hanging on to it for so long - let me know if you need it back!) which I can use, I'd just need a mast. Now, assuming that it's okay to use the MW network for this purpose and there's LOS, would it be impractical in terms of speed/bandwidth for 120 or so people to get Internet access for a 2 day tech conference? The last conference ran over HSDPA and we pulled, from memory, less than a Gb of data with no major complaints about speed (in other words, I don't think we'd pull much more than that regardless of connection type). Any thoughts or suggestions on how to get this group of geeks online are greatly appreciated. Cheers! Ben BarCampMelbourne is an open, participatory, user generated conference that covers topics related to business and technology, not necessarily but predominantly revolving around open source. This will be the 4th such event run in Victoria. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcamp for more info. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Thanks for the loan offer - I'll forward it to the organisers list and let you know. I suspect we'll probably go with a trust model as in previous years though.

I had loaned internet from Mike for a month or two that worked flawlessly (so long as my side of the connection didn't screw up). Connected through one of his gateways. +1 for simple system! (from an end-user) Just means that if there's anyone else nearby who picks up the network not involved with your group, won't hijack off the connection and use and abuse it.

We'd be using a pre-shared key for authentication to wireless, so this isn't a huge issue for me, but on a related note, I don't want authorised people abusing the system too. Is it possible to configure this system to not throttle anyone unless the connection comes close to saturation, and then throttle people to equal portions of available capacity? If so, can specific machines (by MAC or IP addresses) be excluded from throttling? Perhaps this could be trivially achieved through QoS on the WRT though, and I'm just looking for excuses to use the DuxMaster ;) Thanks!

Todd Hubers has been investigating the possibilities of optical wireless technology in delivery of data services, and would like to hear your feedback on these concepts. His introduction is below: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- Hello Everyone, I have been invited to speak at the Melbourne Wireless meeting this Friday. My name is Todd Hubers and I'm from Geelong. I'm a computer programmer, programming since I was 7. I graduated from Deakin Uni in 2006, having completed the Bachelor of Business Information Technology (Hons). I will be speaking about a technology with exciting prospects - Free Space Optic Mesh (FSOM). The presentation will include the following: - Quick introduction to Free Space Optics - Our idea for the mesh design - Leveraged benefits: - Distributed web and services - Micro-cells for Mobile connectivity - Precision positioning I have approached Deakin and Monash IT who are interested in researching into these ideas, and I am hoping that Melbourne Wireless members will be able to help to contribute ideas and for field testing. I also have some comments about the current NBN proposal in the light of such technology, but these will be limited due to time and are not the focus of my visit. I look forward to meeting you all and hearing your valuable opinions. See you there, Todd Hubers 0424 320 575 From nodegxt at yahoo.com.au Sun Jul 12 20:46:41 2009 From: nodegxt at yahoo.com.au (Mark Aitken) Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2009 20:46:41 +1000 Subject: [MLB-WIRELESS] OEM CD for HP Compaq DC7100 Message-ID: <4A59BF11.1070706@yahoo.com.au> Hello, Anyone have a OEM CD for the HP Compaq DC7100 PC.

Has the perspex front door, two sides, power rail. No rear door. No shelves (keeping them), no patches etc. I no longer need any where near 42RU of space... I'm looking to get rid of it, however there are conditions. Whoever wants, comes and picks it up. Whoever wants, supplies a smaller rack. If anyone's interested in this arrangement, contact me off list please. melbwireless at clarkey.id.au Cheers, Jason -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
