California Telleconnects Fund

http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/puc/telco/public+programs/ctf/ Apparently we might be eligible for a 50% discount off any "on select communications services". It sounds like it would take a few months to apply and receive eligibility.

sudoroom.org downtime tonight

by yar

It's at maybe the worst possible time (6pm tonight) but there's nothing we can do about it. We'll try to make it as quick & smooth as possible. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <support(a)linode.com> Date: Sun, Mar 1, 2015 at 11:35 AM Subject: Linode Support Ticket 4254236 - Critical Xen Maintenance / Reboot Schedule Hello, Linode recently received several Xen Security Advisories (XSAs) that require us to perform updates to our host servers. In order to apply the updates, hosts and the Linodes running on them must be rebooted. The XSAs will be publicly released by the Xen project team on March 10th, therefore we must complete the updates before that date. These updates are required to protect the security and safe operations of not only our infrastructure, but yours as well. We understand that a disruption with such limited notice is inconvenient, and we hope you understand that these measures are warranted due to the severity of the XSAs. Your Linodes have been assigned a maintenance window in which a reboot will occur. These times are listed within the Linode Manager[1] in the timezone set in your user's My Profile[2]. Your schedule in UTC timezone is as follows: * 2015-03-06 2:00:00 AM UTC - sudoserver During the maintenance window Linode instances will be cleanly shut down while we perform the updates. Your Linode will be inaccessible during this time. A two-hour window is allocated, however the actual downtime can be much less. After the maintenance, each Linode will then be booted. See our Reboot Survival Guide[3] for tips and hints on configuring and testing that your Linode services boot properly after the maintenance. Unfortunately, due the logistical demands of this effort, your assigned windows are not changeable and the host reboots are mandatory. For general information, please see our status post: <http://status.linode.com/incidents/2dyvn29ds5mz> Please let us know if there is anything we can do to assist.

Assuming this is the PHLO+ dual-bonded VDSL Business service, they're stating 60-100Mbps @ 1000 feet from the local Central Office: http://www.lmi.net/services/phlo-faq Sudo Room is about 900' as the crow flies (though it's the cable length and quality that matters): Building CLLI/Name: OKLDCA11 (OAKLAND (45TH STREET)) Address: 479 45th St, Oakland, CA 94609-2135 http://www.lmi.net/phlomap.html LMI offers static addresses for an extra fee. from http://www.lmi.net/services/adsl: "Bridged static IP’s are available for: $5 / one static, $10 / four static, $20 / eight static per month."

Yeah so theoretically Marc should have any contract info about the LMI connection. All of the mesh folks including Marc should be at Sudo this evening, so hopefully we can clear up any issues. I also get the sense that the LMI folks are pretty reasonable, so if for any reason we don't end up with a static IP (and we should - it's the "business plan"), then we should probably be able to talk to them and convince them to provide one.

A house in the hills

by Jake

So a friend of mine knows a guy in the Berkeley Hills who is real nice. I talked with him on the phone and suggested that he let us put up a tower at his house, and use it for the mesh network, and give him free internet. He said that sounds great but cautioned that his view is to the northwest. His address is 1130 sterling ave, berkeley if you want to look at it on a topographic map or even visit. If you want to visit, let me know and i'll call him and coordinate a date when we can go over there. He owns his house and is a nice guy. There is a telescoping 90-foot tower in my driveway. I paid $100 for it and Marc paid $45 in gasoline to go get it, and I don't think I have a place to put it. If the mesh group wants to buy the tower and put it up somewhere, for example at Charlie's place, that would work fine. 1130 sterling ave, berkeley what do you think? -jake

The FCC Did a Lot More Than Just Approve Net Neutrality Today

by Mitar

Hi! http://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2015/02/fcc-did-lot-more-just-approve… "The Federal Communications Commission will allow some cities and towns to set up and expand municipal Internet services, overruling state laws that had been put in place to block such efforts." But it is also interesting, that as a regulated utility service that Internet now is, it means one can get also access to utility poles and other essential infrastructure owned by utilities, do deploy the Internet? BTW, I think with classification of Internet as utility we got a half-solution. It would be much better to not try to make Internet be linked with old laws which were made before the Internet. They could just pass something new, say simply "net neutrality" bill, instead of trying to make Internet an utility. Because with utility there are also pretty strict regulations, which do provide neutrality, but also other requirements. So, not sure if this will then allow alternatives like community networks to ever legally present them as ISPs, because it would make them utilities and fall under all requirements, and paperwork.
