Maxim Getman

We did it again! The third Wi-Fi engineers conference in Russia took place last week. Codename #rufiday or wifimarathon.ru This year, 170 engineers attended the conference in Moscow! One full day, eight speakers, and lots of networking.

@RockstarWifi @GabeZZOZZ unfortunately, it's real.

@GabeZZOZZ This can't be real? #Ukraine

How did this idiot end up as President of Ukraine?

Impressed by the professor Jeffrey Sachs Speech At EU Parliament. Listening to people like this gives me faith in humanity.

Fun fact, in 2006, after graduating from university, I was not hired by Megafon as a cellular network engineer. No experience. Many years later, I trained a team of Megafon engineers to design Wi-Fi networks.

9th "Wireless networks design, implementation and maintenance" enhanced (6-day) course completed! I trained Megafon engineers how to build good Wi-Fi. Life goes on!

@mistermultipath Thank you David!

@get_max @KeithRParsons Congrats Maxim!

5 years ago at #WLPC I was inspired by the friendly engineering community and dreamed of having such a conference in Russia. Today this day happened. 110 participants + 70 online. We did it! Thank you @KeithRParsons for that inspiration! I hope our communities can meet soon.

@wifiwise @KeithRParsons Moscow

@get_max @KeithRParsons Where did it take place.

Small keepalive from me. Working hard, 12 new Wi-Fi contracts this year, 2 stadiums. Making time for vacations with my family, small local trips, 3 weeks this year, planning more. Not only engineering team is growing, and so is the company's revenue. Maxim, from Russia with love!

Last year I disappeared from the air, there were a lot of things to do and I didn't see the point, time and mood to describe them. I trained engineers, did some interesting Wi-Fi projects, met with friends and most of the time I was engaged in a serious personal project.

Namaste, India! My vacation begins in Vrindavan, a city of 5000 temples. I'm here because my balance between the spiritual and material sides of life was broken. I hope to balance out this two life aspects and continue my journey. Who interested in photo, getm4x at Instagram.

@Mac_WiFi Oh, I mean just that a few engineers was there )

@get_max You can’t say small anymore, you have to use “vertically challenged” 😂

Small engineers meetings are always great!

@JussiKiviniemi 100% agree!!!

Not just content contribution either. Ferney is at the very heart of the community, and has a big heart. ❤️

@rowelldionicio This year my Wi-Fi vendor list is realy expanded... H3C, Ruijie, DCN, Maipu, HFCL, Edge-Core, Yuncore, but I still dont know what to offer to my customers)) Also, can you dig so deep to choose right one from many? One engineer can know 2-4 vendors well enough to choose "right".

Who else likes to pick network equipment that’s best for the requirement instead of a single vendor for the whole stack 🙋‍♂️Am I the only one?

@ITunakin Installlers just don't know basics? Sometimes I see this "antenna diversity", worst case was about 20m between antennas ))

Why?!

@TheCMReed Value for vendors )

When vendors say their licensing scheme provides value.

@Stephen__Cooper Wow!

Engineers, now we have Wi-Fi 6e AP's with connectors for external antennas, and someday they will work with the AFC, but I do not see any indoor Wi-Fi 6e AP's with the ability to connect external antennas, for example, to put them in the stadium, in large auditoriums. Why?

@wifiwise except pricing, you right. it's not good to pay for IP68 box and heater if you don't need it.

@get_max What would be the problem to use outdoor AP indoor or semi indoor (stadium) except pricing? Just my 2 cent 🤷
