Lets hope the weather gods play fair that weekend.

Hey Jim

Also jim to you speak to the caretaker regarding power of taps in toilet?

Suppose you'll be wiring some tails in then Jimbo.

If all goes to plan.. I'll be needing loads of lectriceriry this year!

With me living about 1300meters, as the crow flies, from the Hall site, is there any way that we can get a radio link from my house to the Hall to deliver WiFi to the masses?

high powerd router/range extender on ebay maybe something like this may work
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALFA-2000m...item45fde2686c

or google may help you out :)

Well that looks like it would reach Chris at 2W but I have no idea what it is, what it does or what to do with it etc? :(

Damn, something I know about...

That link is a flat panel, CPE for wireless connectivity.. it would most likely need Line of sight...

I've done a few point to multipoint wireless links in Central London.. what you need is.. height..

Do you think we could get line of site to your house from the roof of the hall / by strapping something on the side of the building ?

Sneaky fibre run across the playing field ? :P

Other than that - I have a plan.. might involve people who want to use the net paying a max of about £10 (depending on how many people want to use it)

Only other issue I've just noticed the dates.. my wifes birthday is on the 2nd of October.. I'm guessing its way too late to modify the LEM dates.. so either I won't make it or I'll be down Friday - do Sat night and then pack up and drive back!

Chris (bro) has some sort of directional microwave antenna (i think it's something like 25watts). He has it mounted on a tripod which makes it look like some sort of weapon :eek:
I'll get the specs from him and if it's something you think we can use i'll get him to bring it along

jim why not just apply to your local council for a road closure for two days and then we can run a cable down the road to your house. simple.

i can help fill out the paper work if you want ;-)

Jim can you not sweet talk & ask the neighbours to the hall if any have a router & broadband internet? If they do a small cash incentive may allow us to run a cat 5 cable from their house to the hall?

offer dimmers services to them for a night, he will wait on them hand and foot

Briggs is already working on 1.5k of armoured single mode fibre :P

im sure i could get a road closure in place, access only for residents. i can also supply all the relevent signage and get a diversion route setup.

jim we got it sorted ;-)

Can you sort a crew to dig and trench ? might as well do it permanently whilst the road is closed, and I suppose whist at it get a 400amp incomer installed.

Nige... Is it worth having the water supply upgraded at the same time?, That would let us run more than one gasser at once. No point in having to dig two trenches... Just sayin'

Something like this?

30KM WiFi, nice!

You can even download the instructions so Con can get digging.

You can build something similar with a couple of old Sky satellite dishes, some Biquad antennas and a couple of WiFi cards. :)

sounds like a plan jem

although in normal council style they do like to dig roads up twice in short periods!

Hmmm..

You turkeys might know a lot about lasers and some of you may even be qualified to operate them, but don't try to wildcard me on this wireless shit.. your boy, your main man spent years crawling over the rooftops of Soho and surrounding areas setting up a network of PTMP Wireless links.. Been there done that shit.

2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Wifi needs LOS - in theory 5Ghz needs NLOS but it doesn't work too well, we arent talking WiMAX here, which you *can* bounce of things (Buildings, etc)

So here are Nige's top hot picks for Surfleet Ti'ternet.

1) Fibre to Jims house... mmmm probably not..
2) Wifi Link to Jim's house... mmmmm probably not..
3) WiMAX Link to Jim's house.... mmmm we don't have the equipment or the licenses and OfCOM have vans you know.
4) HSPA/HSPA+/3G Link x3 on high gain antennas and then bonded and tunnelled to a Datacentre in London and then unbonded and patched into a 1Gb port with Linx peering, plausable!
5) Live without Internet for the weekend, priceless.

:cool:

Just trying to get you all an internet connection for the LEM with the 3G signal being non existant!
It's about 1300M to my house, surely there is something that will line of sight that?
If we hang the antenna out of the balcony window, where the Laserscope was poked out of and point it towards my house...........
I can get it house top window height at home........
Yes/no?

I can't afford to do this BTW just wondering if it can be done and if anyone has acsess to anything?

piss my shit nige

how about a laser link?

it is appropriate to use just lasers at a LEM :)
