00:51 <DocScrutinizer05> whitequark: did you say in Moskow your house routers are mounted in the attic? Is that WiMAX then?

00:53 <whitequark> DocScrutinizer05: huh? no

00:54 <DocScrutinizer05> I thought that would explain why to place the infra in the attic, close to the dish

00:54 <whitequark> the house router is connected to my one with copper

00:54 <whitequark> oh

00:54 <whitequark> no

00:54 <whitequark> it's placed in the attic because that's where you can get the permit

00:54 <whitequark> you would never in your damn life get a wimax license

00:54 <DocScrutinizer05> we usually have all that stuff in the cellar here

00:57 <DocScrutinizer05> there's one exception to that: cable TV which connects to the existing house infra which distributed the antenna signal from attic to each flat in a star-bus topology (1..10 branches, with a splitter outlet on each floor)

00:59 <DocScrutinizer05> there it#s sometimes easier to have a single coax cable run from underground to the attic, than to extend all the branches to the cellar and reverse all the splitters for "signal down->up" instead up->down
