UG 44 Meeting & Election
by Richard Laager Sept. 25, 2023

Sept. 25, 2023

The MICE UG 44 meeting will be held Wednesday, October 25, 3:00 pm at UMN. Here are the details (parking, etc.) from last time: https://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?A2=MICE-DISCUSS;2c503e19.2209 An updated Zoom link will be coming. *Nominations* We will be holding an election for a board seat. The board consists of three seats with staggered terms, such that one seat comes up for re-election each year (at the fall meeting). This year, Anthony's seat is up for election. As in the past, we will close nominations in advance of the meeting so people have a chance to instruct a proxy appropriately. *Nominations will be open for two weeks (so until the end of October 7).* * * *Proxies * The bylaws state that you send proxies to the Chief Manager (me, Richard Laager), and electronic means are acceptable. So a simple email is sufficient: rlaager(a)wiktel.com or chiefmanager(a)micemn.net. If you send me a /vote/ by email (e.g. "We vote for <X>."), I will treat it as an a proxy appointment, appointing me to vote on your behalf, but restricted to /only/ the election item and to /only/ vote for the candidate you expressed. If you send me a proxy with different instructions (e.g. "We appoint <Y> to vote for us."), obviously that will be honored as written. -- Richard

Gateway Fiber ribbon cutting
by Michael Horwath Sept. 14, 2023

Sept. 14, 2023

They had that this moring at 1000 hours in Blaine. I made a joke to my friend that I wonder how many of 3 of us will be there. Well, I got a surprise as there were at least 8 folks who were not affilitated with the event. Talking to a couple of folks - would like to have customers up by end of year in Blaine - my area (Coon Rapids) would come afterwards but could not get them to commit or ‘about 6 months’ - GPON for delivery - using Comlink Solutions for the pulls - 511 is on their radar - mentioned expanding south from Blaine into SLP, Mounds View - mentioned expanding north-west into Andover I mentioned MICE and gave el-presidente my email address to contact me, and the website URL And I did not get a pic of their pricing flyer! But 2Gbps bidirectional is $150/month but I cannot remember the lower speeds cause I didn’t care :) -- Mike Horwath, reachable via drechsau(a)Geeks.ORG

Global Net (AS395466) - Carrier Outage / Carrier Maintenance
by Global Net NOC Aug. 28, 2023

Aug. 28, 2023

MICEMN Members - Our carrier experienced a DC power plant failure on Saturday, August 26th @ 1356 MDT at which time our circuit between Bozeman, MT and Minneapolis, MN went down. This circuit was restored this morning at 0301 MDT, but via a temporary power supply. We are being told that the carrier will be replacing the failed DC power plant tomorrow around noon MDT with an expected impact of 90 minutes to our circuit. Our port to the MICE is currently down but I have all BGP sessions disabled for manual and graceful restart once service is fully restored. I would like to wait until the temporary power supply is replaced before bringing sessions back up.

Network Nerd Thoughts?
by Michael Horwath Aug. 21, 2023

Aug. 21, 2023

ObOnTopic: Anyone have a contact there to see if they are willing to join MICE? ObOffTopic: everything else https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/gateway-fiber-bringing-100-fiber-o… I moved into CR July 2020 and .. connectivity options are not really options. Greenbutthole (you know, Centurylink, Lumen, some name that starts with Q) loves to say high speed, every address in a 4 block area around me is only capable of 10Mbps down. Comcast? I mean, it works, for a small value of works. Anyone dealt with these folks in the past in other areas? Will they come through? Are there any gotchas? I wish we had more choice. I mean, we had over 200 choices back in the late 90s and early-mid 2000s but they are all gone now. -- Mike Horwath, reachable via drechsau(a)Geeks.ORG
