January 12 Fabio writes to newspapers
E 'with great pride that we carry forward the letter Fabio Pavoni has written to newspapers to thank those who have labored to bring broadband in his town of residence.
A personal thanks also to Fabio for having to publish my name on "The Center". Thank you.
Here is the letter from Fabio.
Hello, I am Fabio Pavone of Cappelle sul Tavo (PE).
I am writing to inform you that at last from 2 January 2008 in my town you can surf the internet with the WADSL.
Company Micso Pescara who installed the antenna I wanted to make a nice gift provided the first Connect Box for free.
Go is a bomb!
I want to thank them in person Emiliano Bruni and his colleagues for this gesture, as well as all who are interested in the "cause ADSL Chapel," the association Olografix Metro, friends of the head of the Italian Union of Pescara Fighting Muscular Dystrophy, journalists Punto Informatica.
Besides unquestionable advantage that I get this in our area has created a small but important precedent.
Side, the article published in the newspaper "The Center".
Apparently the desire to leave the digital divide was so great and probably have not even seen that lunch, two hours away from delivery of the Connect box ...
December 31 We did it. Cappelle sul Tavo is covered.
December 29 Rough day
December 27 Just behind the tree
Today day of preparations to bring WADSL in Cappelle sul Tavo and, in particular, to Fabio.
In particular, the cronoscaletta MICS, foresaw the installation of the antenna and the radio on our side on the roof of our building. The thing seemed quite trivial since the poles and wires already there and that the other point to be reached is virtually on sight.
But, as always, in the electromagnetic field, one must take into account two important laws:
- Law of Dr.Norm: Things, on the roofs, are never as they appear on land
- Murphy's Law: If something can go wrong, will.
And here is where it is the other point to be connected:
EXACTLY BEHIND THE TREE!!
And if it does not seem tragic now seen that among those bare branches a bit 'of Fresnel will go well, I dread to think what would happen in this position with the advent of spring.
So the first part of the "Bring WADSL in Cappelle sul Tavo" has been transformed from "mount the antenna on the pole and then cazzeggio for the rest of the day" to "add a new post at another point that is so then time to go home. "
That's why every time someone asks me what time want to do something, always multiply the initial idea for a factor of 10.
November 29 Fabio tries broadband, Micso answered.
Being digital-split is a problem but as the Internet is the only contact with the outside, then broadband is no longer an asset but a silly law.
A couple of weeks ago, on the mailing list for Olografix, had reached a mail by Fabio P., one of our members Cappelle sul Tavo (PE), boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, encased in his own home, tracheotomy and connected to an apparatus for breathing.
Only contact with the outside world, the Internet and your computer controlled by Fabio through a particular mouse breath.
A complaint alleging that Fabio was in addition to all his health problems, he is a digital-divided and then for him than for others, this situation is causing serious trouble for him because the Internet is a possibility contact with the outside world that nature has denied.
This business you have dealt various newspapers including Computer Point.
I, for my part, just read the email Fabio, I immediately turn the same to my company, as the municipality of residence of Fabio there is very close but not yet covered by us.
Before activating any initiative, we moved to understand how to bring our Fabio WADSL and finally, this morning, our engineers were able to carry out an inspection on Tavo Cappelle on which it was successful.
I then contacted Fabio, sending mail follows:
we at Micso Ltd followed with great interest your personal story (http://www.pitelefonia.it/p.aspx?i=2118200) that touches us closely also given the geographical proximity that binds us.
As you may know MICS and a Wireless Internet Service Provider that already has covered different parts of the area afflicted by the Italian digital divide through a project called WADSL (http://www.wadsl.it) which plans to bring home digital user-divided, broadband via the access-point on the territory in technology HiperLAN.
We were not given immediately after your first request because we wanted to be sure she could bring a satisfactory service.
Just this morning, our engineers are working out an inspection at a facility near your town and have verified the technical feasibility on the insurance WADSL in your community and your home.
I am therefore here to tell you that by December 2007 will be covered by your common Micso WADSL service that provides a service for access to broadband internet connection, unlimited traffic, with bandwidth 1280 kbps download and upload bandwidth with cuts of 256 or 1280 kbps, with a static public IP and reverse DNS resolution. More information about the product and service costs and the necessary radio equipment to use the same is available at http://www.wadsl.it.
It goes without saying that, given your particular condition and affinity that binds us personally, making both the same association, we are honored to provide the service connectivity to the Internet with radio band Symmetric 1280/1280kbps el'apparato necessary to receive signal WADSL described above is completely free of charge.
It will therefore do our utmost to contact you shortly, when activating the service on your policy, to provide the equipment and data access.
In the meantime, sending you our warmest greetings.
We hope to allow Fabio to live a "decent" digital life in the shortest time possible.
