Just curious how far your Wi-Fi access point is from your desktop computer

Hi Johann, Let's focus our insight on helping people do what we do all the time, OK? o We throw WiFi easily for a dozen miles, without blinking, Johann They can certainly paint an RV with WiFi when it's only a mere mile away! o Let's focus our insight on helping people do what we do all the time, OK? My point is that when pjp asks for help in throwing WiFi a mile from his house to his RV, I don't endlessly harp on what there is zero evidence for - which is that I feel it's suspicious that his RV is parked a kilometer away from his house. I'm not like "Good Guy" who pulls that childish crap. Good Guy, or Rene Lamontagne, or Char Jackson, all of those worthless posters, THEY would think that it's suspicous - becaues they all prove to own the minds of children - where then they endlesslessly harp on why THEY think it's suspicious that pjp parks his RV a mile from his home. You'd get guys like Mayayana, William Unruh or Dan Purgert even, who sometimes post as adults, latch onto this highly suspicious scenario where the RV is a mile from the home - so - instead of helping the guy - they endlessly harp on WHY pjp parks his RV a kilometer way from the house. o Maybe he's parking his RV a kilometer from his house to break the law! You think that way, and that's OK. o But I just think the guy wants to paint the RV with Internet. We think differently, Johann. o I'm more trusting than you Johann. More innocent. o I'm always purposefully helpful. Which is why it bothers me that the common trolls who infest this newsgroup are the opposite of me, which is that nothing they posts adds any value whatsoever - and - even ignorning them - doesn't stop them from infesting the USenet potluck (just look at what the trolls wrote in this thread). An uneducated person can buy a powerbeam, intend to use it for wifi, and accidentally (because they don't know better) choose the wrong option in the configuration, and break the law. I think differently than the trolls (e.g., I never troll). o I think differently than the "semantic expert" (e.g., I add value). And, I think differently than anyone who harranges us on "legal" issues o When there is zero evidence that pjp is attempting to break the law It doesn't even occur to me to think the way you think. o Since you clearly think that way - all you have to do is say it once. And then we can get back to adding value on Usenet. o Deal? The guy needs advice on how to throw his WiFi a kilometer o From his house to his RV o Where there is only a "hole" in the trees back at the RV o And where the RV has generator power. One place you can help advise pjp (and the rest of us as a result) is how you'd recommend he "power" the tree radio at the RV. For example, would you recommend just mooching off the RV battery? It's a drop down menu. It can be clicked on accidentally. These devices are not, and have never been, meant for the general public. The rockets are even worse. Let's stop harranging on the legality issue. o You said it once; we agreed ... can we move on to helping people? Another question you can help advise pjp on, and, in the process, the rest of us learn from your advice, is how much power loss is calculatable for penetrating less-than-dense foliage a distance of a kilometer. I documented in this post just now a case where someone went about 500 feet through what appears from the pictures to be all foliage, where I'm curious what you think, from your experience, is possible to penetate with typical Ubiquiti equipment such as that described in this post just now: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sci.electronics.repair/mfFaPuRWHmg/6TZUzxc1CAAJ -- The whole point of Usenet is for adults to helpfully share on-topic value. |

Hi Johann, [...] You'd get guys like Mayayana, William Unruh or Dan Purgert even, who sometimes post as adults, latch onto this highly suspicious scenario where the RV is a mile from the home - so - instead of helping the guy - they endlessly harp on WHY pjp parks his RV a kilometer way from the house. You must not actually have read my responses to his questions; as the only posts I've made quoting regulations (in the US) have been to your posts that do not clarify that the power levels you are quoting are, in fact, bound by laws that restrict the allowable power levels. pjp's scenario is PTP, and therefore would qualify for those power levels you have so often quoted (assuming, of course, he is in the US). [...] An uneducated person can buy a powerbeam, intend to use it for wifi, and accidentally (because they don't know better) choose the wrong option in the configuration, and break the law. It doesn't even occur to me to think the way you think. That is actually pretty **** of you to not even consider that your words have the power to mislead people who don't know any better. [...] It's a drop down menu. It can be clicked on accidentally. These devices are not, and have never been, meant for the general public. The rockets are even worse. Another question you can help advise pjp on, and, in the process, the rest of us learn from your advice, is how much power loss is calculatable for penetrating less-than-dense foliage a distance of a kilometer. "It depends". There are ever-changing variables in that question, from temperature, to humidity, to precipitation, to wind, to the type of trees ... Or, you can make it easy and aim for a clear shot. I documented in this post just now a case where someone went about 500 feet through what appears from the pictures to be all foliage, where I'm curious what you think, from your experience, is possible to penetate with typical Ubiquiti equipment such as that described in this post just now: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sci.electronics.repair/mfFaPuRWHmg/6TZUzxc1CAAJ Thats gonna be a hell of a nightmare shot if he's actually going through the foliage. The whole discussion though is based on 900MHz, which given that scenario will have pushed somewhere in the 20s to 30s of mbps; maybe a bit faster, depending on how bad the leaves encroached. That being said, 900MHz is about 2x better at punching through obstructions as than 2.4 GHz (likewise, 2.4 GHz is about 2x better than 5 GHz in that regard). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEBcqaUD8uEzVNxUrujhHd8xJ5ooEFAl2qUB QACgkQjhHd8xJ5 ooFT5Af+NjdTToXNTvnk+4TvWqqWDr6oLkDqTVKzZUlnV4Ad+A JoakzkJFpaoUC7 QCruMwCV9d7nKZlJmTPVsIdw4WBTfAmY7VzObJlh3N7uxiNfVA/+vTafp8K2w7SQ 0G7yvALtYQc6OgmZVKVVqWLqNX0giT+O0n3+dYmZneVQXn24fQ BautwfJw0fTz/Q unmkRSW3wTUByCfaPDnag5xRj7KZloBAC5ZI870Q0oeGNGOhwK 3XpsNEGAGajBsW mx69r1mYdS9lxQr4IM0TNNJrQHWOLSg0drHQ1ilFl5PnZoyMew jJUP0hFn+ROmPu cBRvEGsEOHFIHezH8V8hlpjispFy5A== =3DKM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- |_|O|_| |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: 05CA 9A50 3F2E 1335 4DC5 4AEE 8E11 DDF3 1279 A281 |
