<p>Dear Martin,</p>
<p>Thanks immensely for the follow-up and hard work. <br>
</p>
<p>Apologies for my late response. I was awaiting actionable
feedback from the parties involved. Unfortunately our contacts on
the ground are still without an active office and still have
resource and communication challenges.<br>
</p>
<p>We would like to know the weight of the shipment or the projected
shipping costs. Our primary considerations are the <i>shipping
weight</i> and the <i>shipping from location</i> so that we can
determine how we may assist and expedite.</p>
<p>We are interested in the method and package that expedites the
delivery of the solution without incurring extra work and expense,
thus <i>option 1</i> is fine.<br>
</p>
<p>The local Dominican team will settle the WAN (including DHCP) and
power issue. No problem.</p>
<p>Is it easy for you to package the items? Do you incur costs
there? <br>
</p>
<p>Please remember the necessity of the shipping documentation for
Customs on our end especially with respect to the Tampere
Convention. If there is anyway that we can be further helpful, do
let me know. We are conscious of the excessive burden on you for
the initiative. Thanks.<br>
</p>
<p>I'm reachable at almost anytime that I'm awake, connected and not
otherwise busy at <b>mobile/whatsapp</b> +1246-254-2380 or US
mobile (<b>voice/sms</b>) +1305-520-9367. Please feel free to
connect.<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks again. Have a great day!<br>
</p>
Regards,<br>
<br>

Jason,<br>

Sorry for the delay in response. I have a new job
and I have been traveling just a little bit. <br>
<br>
</div>
Everything is done on my end. I have the
configurations done and I've been able to simplify
the logic substantially. Everything has been
upgraded and set up. The equipment that Coresite
data centers donated turned out to be quite flexible
with what wasn't limited by the lack of cisco
proprietary controller. There are some functionality
problems that don't make them perfect, but they are
fine.<br>
<br>
</div>
However. I have come to the conclusion that shipping
cost is a major factor. The equipment weighs a lot.
This is the primary reason why I haven't shipped
anything yet. Dominica suggested that we instead
provide them with wireless bridging equipment that
they could distribute signals across the neighborhood.
This is a more cost effective approach including being
lighter. The ubiquiti solution tht Nick used in St.
John seems to be the right one in my mind.<br>
<br>
</div>
I am ready to send gear. The question is which? To be
honest, I'd rather donate enough equipment to give Craig
and team the wireless distribution they seek. It would
be lighter and easy to handle. That option would take me
another week to two. Then shipped. Option 1, the cisco
gear would take the same, but do to the cost constraints
I'd be concerned with how much equipment would be sent.
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also have configured a bunch of Raspberry Pi's to
provide different low pressure functionality. They are
perfectly find in the current environment as caching
name servers. I can send those immediately as they are
extremely light. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The only outstanding question I have is about power.
If CW can provide an ethernet connection that will allow
for DHCP to work, we are in business. That leaves power
and the question there is if it is adequate enough?<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
What would you like me to do at this point? If you want to
talk live, let's put some time aside tomorrow afternoon.
You are aware that Thursday is a major US holiday? I could
speak with you on Friday if that is better. <br>
<br>
</div>
I have to tell you that I have learned quite a bit from this
experience. I am going to document it and hopefully if this
happens again, the enthusiasm can be turned into action much
quicker. The shipping and access piece seems to the the
major blocker, and not only cost. I hope that whatever we
send gets stored for future emergencies and can be
replicated for others to do the same.<br>
<br>
Thanks for all your help!!! <br>

<p>Dear Martin and Group,</p>
<p>Thanks so much for this great job that you are doing!<br>
</p>

<p>In Barbados we are willing and eager to receive the kit
for Dominica for further transshipment it via our
military's relief shipments channel.</p>
<ol>
<li>We have already managed to use to same channel to
get essential supplies directly to our ISOC Dominica
counterparts. Thus, it is a tested and working
channel. Our Dominican counterparts are looking
forward to receiving the kit. They still have IP
communications challenges that it may help them
improve upon.<br>
</li>
<li>We are concerned that the relief shipment window is
not necessarily indefinite, so we would like to use it
whilst we can.</li>
</ol>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Is there a way that we may assist more from Barbados? <br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>I think we are nearly in a state where we can
perform some systems administration and distribution
of some of these kits as well, if they were in
Barbados.</li>
<li>If everything is preceding normally we also wanted
to reach out to Tortola to find persons we could
deploy a kit. We need to know what is possible before
we attempt cold contact with the persons from Tortola.</li>
</ol>
<p>----</p>
<p>I've cc'ed my ISOC Barbados working group which is
assisting with this project on the local end and helping
to keep me organised.<br>

I also built a RPi with a recursive name server
and piggybacking a RIPE atlas probe. That gives
us a remote access platform and
measurements/up/down. We can lock the name
server to the local ISP allocations I suppose.<br>
<br>
</div>
The last question I have is: Does CW have a
working port with DHCP anywhere in Dominica?<br>

Chris, <br>
<br>
</div>
Here's the config. I'm working on
buttoning down the edge router now. I
have the everything running from an
ethernet port on my home internest
service with a DHCP address from my
provider. <br>
<br>
</div>
I have all three radios connected and
reachable. Looks like the lack of server
disable some functionality, but the rest
is there. I couldn't figure out manual
channel seperation. Of note, the AP's
themselves will QoS connections. Maybe
simpler to limit their and replace the
edgemax with something much dumber and
cheaper.<br>
<br>
</div>
I think we leave it "open" on shipping. This
is not fancy by any means, and I'm wondering
how much more we really need.<br>
