[WISPA] Experimental Licensing in the 3650 MHz Band - Clarifications

2006-02-08 Thread Charles Wu
Recently, there have been some misleading advertisements promising turn-key 3.65 GHz licensing services as a means of avoiding interference in congested license-exempt ISM/UNII bands. Although the FCC issued adopted rules back in March 2005 to open access to new spectrum for wireless broadband in

Tom, DSSS modulation is a single-carrier modulation scheme, BPSK operates much in the same way as DSSS which usually are much more robust then other forms of modulation because they seem to run like a single carrier modulation schema's. The neat thing about BPSK is its ability to take

As you start to walk up the modulation line you definitely need more C/I, but you also start to loose the ability to use full power out of the radio. A small bit of trivial regarding this issue With higher order modulation schemes, the EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) can be so high that even on a

Only Atheros 5004 and higher chipset is capable of this mode. So you will need a 5213 or newer card. Your 5212 and 5211 cards can not do this. Also the 5004 (4th Gen Atheros) that uses the AR5213 chip can be set to transmit on 5 or 10Mhz only frequency BUT it still listens to the entire normal

This problem was solved thanks to prompt tech support from Wisp-Router. With NStreme enabled, it is necessary to assign the IP to the Bridged port, not ether1. However, without Nstreme enabled, it works fine with IP assigned to Ether1, as long as bridged to WLAN. (The same way that always
