Yesterday we installed a major network improvement, a device that now monitors all of the equipment at the tower and will automatically reboot any of the tower devices (Access Points, Antennas, and Routers) that lock up or otherwise fail to respond. 90% of the past outages have been due to a lockup at the tower, and we have needed to drive up to the mountain to reboot the equipment. This will now happen automatically within 60 seconds of the outage, as well as record the incident to our monitoring system.
We are looking into the possibility of adding the devices to the major relay systems as well (Lake Alyson, Lake Roesiger, Lake Bosworth, Aspen, Frontier Airpark, 29th Place and others.)
Never content with mediocrity,
