Bob Illyes: [UCIMC-Tech] Family room router: No one has admitted to rehanging the Family Room router by its cables. Stuart and I tried to return it to its feet, but the cable was mysteriously too short. We (mostly Stuart) figured out a way to hang the router using rubber bands so that there wasn't so much strain on the cable connectors. [...]

Danielle Chynoweth: [UCIMC-Tech] Proposal for an US IMC tech gathering - seeking organizers to help: At the US Social Forum a few weeks ago in Atlanta, IMCistas gathered to discuss what was up with the IMC network. It was a great discussion. One of the main proposals that came out of it was to organize a IMC Tech training gathering in recognition of the great [...]

Mike Lehman: [UCIMC-Tech] Streaming again: RFU hasn't been streaming since the Great March Server Meltdown, so it hasn't been an issue lately in any of the problems, except in planning for possible future overall capacity needs -- and even that is problematic. <br /> Unless the proposed copyright licensing fees set for internet [...]

dan blah: [UCIMC-Tech] Fees: there are no fees, only suggested donations. <br /> Bob Illyes wrote: <br /> [...] <br />

Bob Illyes: [UCIMC-Tech] Fees: One solution to our bandwidth problems would be to raise the fee for having a web site. Does anyone know how much it would have to be raised per web site to allow us to buy adequate bandwidth? <br /> Bob <br />

Matthew Isaacs: [UCIMC-Tech] Streaming: [...] <br /> WRFU aside, I think a T-1 may be adequate. With it figured in? I can't say... <br />

Bob Illyes: [UCIMC-Tech] Streaming again: I should say that the IMC as a whole should support the WRFU web site as a part of the UCIMC web site. It is only streaming that concerns me. <br /> Bob <br />

Bob Illyes: [UCIMC-Tech] Streaming: Perhaps the solution to our bandwidth problem is to have WRFU purchase its own internet service? Print (my main group) does not expect the IMC at large to pay for its printing costs, and perhaps a similar rule should apply to WRFU. <br /> I think Zach was running off of a single T1, and that was [...]

dan blah: [UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc] Today's Internet Outage: t1 - $399 to $800/mo volo - $150 to $250/mo dsl isnt an option due to our location. we are not able to get over 1mbps both asymmetric or symmetric <br /> C. G. Estabrook wrote: <br /> [...] <br />

Matthew Isaacs: [UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc] Today's Internet Outage: [...] <br /> There's somewhat of a catch-22 here. The service levels that are able to be provided with Insight as the ISP may make it difficult to convince people to contribute (or us in good faith to ask for them). But any upgrade would likely cost a good deal more than we are currently paying [...]

Matthew Isaacs: [UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc] Today's Internet Outage: [...] <br /> DSL is, in general, too slow for what chambana.net does, at least the way that it currently does things. AT&amp;T has some new faster options that may be viable (6.0Mbps down / 768Kbps up). That however, is slower than what Insight gives us. According to Dan, the last time I asked, [...]

Dan Blah: [UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc] Today's Internet Outage: [...] <br /> not that things were any more than sand to begin with, its starting look more like water. <br /> [...] <br /> its true, we had a site set up to better handle donations as well as issue tracking that was lost in the meltdown. josh and i have recently discussed rebuilding the new chambana.net website. <br /> [.

Mike Lehman: [UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc] Today's Internet Outage: Dan, I guess this means that previous planning for better connectivity at the IMC has hit a snag? Time for some sort of Plan B, as Insight was never meant as anything more than a temporary solution based on what I remember. There are several obstacles to be overcome. [...]

Stuart Levy: [UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc] Today's Internet Outage: [...] <br /> What else is available? <br /> I have mcleodusa DSL at home... it's not very fast (768/256kbps), but is reliable. If you had more money, which services could you use? <br /> [...] <br />

Bob Illyes: [UCIMC-Tech] Family Room router: Someone has again hung the Family Room router by its cables and it is dangling on the wall, so ethernet service to Heidi Johnson is again in danger. Before I post this to the general IMC list, I thought I'd ask Tech if anyone had any idea of who is doing this. [...]
