Yes, SNMP is useful once CPE is installed at Customer's premises, but I'm looking for something to help antenna orientation during installation phase, that can be used by customer itself or an external installators.

cpresto

Please note that Rapidshare traffic is normal http traffic on port 80, the same "normal browsing" traffic.
The only difference is that on RapidShare servers are stored files to be shared.
Definetly, it is not P2P traffic but simply "P2P content".

IP address a.b.c.3 is not assigned to lacal MT interface, as you can see from picture, but directly to Costumer's PC, and int is in the same subnet of a.b.c.1 (ISP public IP address) and a.b.c.2 (MT IP WAN address).

Hi tgrand,
