It comes from the FSO library that allows access to the GSM hardware ( http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=specs.git;a=blob_plain;f=html/org.freesmartphone.GSM.Monitor.html;hb=HEAD#GetNeighbourCellInformation ). In cellhunter, signal strength is defined as "(rxlevel / 2) +2" where rxlevel is Recieved Field Level as a percentage. So 25 would be almost half strength? I'm getting values between 12 and 18 so that's not very good but my phone service isn't always stable. > What is the maximum? 52?

There are some tools for accessing the Cellhunter database at the bottom of the website - http://ch.omoco.de/cellhunter/ I think you would have to download the CSV GPS and plot/filter the points to find which cell covers which house. > Has cell on one house only one MNC, or are there splits for the provider?

CellHunter legend
Hi, my CellHunter on SHR (pre-nov2009-core-updates) shows me: Provider: o2 - de (262/07) Cell: A102 / EA0E / 25 ... I was trying to find some documentation about this but in vain... So my guess is this: Provider: o2 - de (MCC/MNC) Cell: LAC / cellID / signalStrength but what says signalStrength? Is 25 much? What is the maximum? How to find out which cell is on house of my neighbor? Has cell on one house only one MNC, or are there splits for the provider?

Re: connection between Freerunner and openSUSE 11.2
tbh, i never really was happy mit nm or any "intelligent" automatism trying to manage the connection to the fr. nm usually is overcharged with the concept of _multiple_ network interfaces being up and connected at the sam time and produces spretty much a mess. your best bet is to handle it by yourself, using /etc/network/interfaces (be aware, taht suse since its earliest times refuse to use sensible and widely used mechanisms, but forces you to use that horrible yast!) my /etc/network/interfaces looks like below # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug usb0 iface usb0 inet static address 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 post-up iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 post-up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward post-up iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT ## The primary network interface ## network-manager stupidly seems to use the last defined connection allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp relevant is the usb0 stanza (i modified the udev rule to retain the device usb0, per default it should be ethX, probably eth1 on your box). in theory, nm should ignore any device explicitely configured in the file above, but in praxi it usually fails, check /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf for the entry [ifupdown] managed=false to (hopefully) force nm to ignore those devices in /etc/network/interfaces. this works on a debian/unstable. if suse does not allow this kind of configuration (yast creates its own little world), try yast and configure there manually the necessary information. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
connection between Freerunner and openSUSE 11.2
Hi all. I am trying to connect via USB to a Freerunner from an openSUSE 11.2 box (which uses NetworkManager). When I connect the cable, the following messages occur in /var/log/messages.
