Re: [AFMUG] What is the supply chain situation from a WISP perspective?

2022-06-21 Thread Dennis Burgess

Depends on what you need, you may need to modify what you need to what you can 
get 😊  Just a FYI.  We have quite a few people who used to buy 4011s now buying 
2116s etc, just cause we have stock.  Keep in mind that larger is ok, just 
smaller is not.  😊

There’s quite a bit of Cambium in stock in the channel.  Lots of some UBNT 
stock and none of a lot of SKUs.  Tik is mostly backordered on the most popular 
switches and routers.

Some manufacturers like Adtran and Tarana work allocation to try and keep 
people moving.

If you plan ahead, it’s not that bad mostly.

I have talked to a couple of customers and it seems like this might be a side 
effect of the way WISPs order stuff nowadays, and also shortages from other 
(radio) vendors.   For instance, I would expect that if a WISP can't get radios 
for their towers they also aren't going to be ordering PoE injectors for the 
nonexistent radios.   I also know that a lot of people have moved to "order 
several months at once" instead of "order as you go".

So I'm curious what everyone is seeing or doing from the WISP viewpoint.

[AFMUG] Raspberry Pi Shortage

2022-06-21 Thread Matt

Any ideas when the shortages on these will stop? Was wanting to order
a few of them for a monitoring project but they're just not available.
I do not want to feed scalpers either.

I guess this relates to the shortages of many things.

Check out the orange pi zero or orange pi 4. Much cheaper, and similar
specs. If  you aren't sold on having to use raspian, they might do what you
need. Have to source from China, but that seems to be the case for most
things these days.

I bought some pi4’s on Amazon the other day.  I think I had to buy it as a
