<div>hello there,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>last sunday the 29th we finally accomplished what we've been trying to do for the last few months, we got a connection to HVC from JSG in North Carlton. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>we'd been trying with all sorts of things prior to; improperly terminated lengthy rg213 + cantennas, omnis and parabolics neither of which amounted to anything. finally we got our hands on a canopy from tim hogard - which i must admit didn't immedietly work presumably because of noise- + a satellite dish from Dave Ashburner and there a working solution was born.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>instantly the difference was observed even though we hadn't calculated the correct angle to place the canopy on the sattelite dish (we rather just adhoced it). practically immedietly the thing registered.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>anyways now the next step is to confirm the configuration of the thing and get a permanent setup hhappening. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>from memory i recall tim telling me: rssi needs to be above 700 and the jitter below 15, is this correct? (i was getting rssi easily above 800 and jitter at 1-2).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>and then next up i have to allocate myself an IP between <a href="http://10.10.1.130">10.10.1.130</a> and <a href="http://10.10.1.140">10.10.1.140</a>.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>thats what i;ve sussed out so far. if it is properly configured what should i expect to happen? can i google? which addresses should i ping to confirm servers and vital services and all that.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>i imagine the melbwireless site should come up or something or maybe tims abnormal site i dont know but i'm keen to find out!!!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>ps. i just now applied to get my own ip allocation (however that fits into the scheme of things)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>thx</div>
