As for competing with IHug, after reading over the seniority unlicensed spectrum rights clause in the APE's peering agreement, you'll soon understand that you're not "competing" with anything but the envy that commercial providers might have of your success in distributing the service. In short, plan to be shut down if you even think about doing DSSS on the Sky Tower without the blessing the existing tenants. Well other tenants have DSSS gear up there. The cabinets in the row next to APE has DSS in it (according to FLASH who was there last week).
Tenancy agreements for the tower depend on how much "broadcast" you do. APE doesn't so got a good rate. When we put fiber up the tower, it was considered a "microwave" link so our rent went up. But on a simpler note, if you want wireless access to APE, why not just ask us. Its on the price list and we have done it since '95 - we originally provided 2x2mbps links for Alcatel to demo ADSL to Telecom - in the days when I had videos on a Sun server and when a 2meg cct to Netlink was amazing. These days the wireless is a little faster and more open and easier to engineer. Seriously, we have 3 wireless installs to do on Tuesday and build wireless routers. If you want a wireless connex - just ask. richard.naylor(a)citylink.co.nz --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
