Hrm, I'm 90.9% sure it's software based. It does run on the old gear, they just say it takes too many resources, and probably there wasn't a lot of will to make the old stuff compatible, when they could just make everyone buy new stuff.

It is not doing that type of TDMA like Canopy. It's TDMA based on usage. This is NOT the same as a Canopy system.

Re: [WISPA] New UBNT M line, 802.11n without TDMA?
When you enable airmax on the AP, only airmax capable stations will see it and can connect to it. Airmax capable clients will be able to connect to non-airmax enabled AP's, they recognize airmax/non-airmax alike. You can not mix and match, you can't run legacy gear to a Airmax enabled AP, won't work. Which isn't a good thing, but it's Ubiquities statement on the subject, they say their older hardware can't handle airmax/tdma.

Airmax is enabled when a Ubiquity product is in AP mode, it's a tick box. Airmax capable clients will autodetect whether the AP is airmax enabled or not.

Re: [WISPA] New UBNT M line, 802.11n without TDMA?
Ryan, That's not correct. Your second example will not accept a 802.11G/N client. When airmax is enabled, no normal 802.11 client will even see the AP. You must disable airmax on the AP in order to handle normal clients, you can't have some CPE's running in Airmax and some not running in Airmax. Regards Michael Baird > Be aware though, you cannot mix and match at the same time.For example: > > 1 Airmax AP and 10 Airmax enabled CPE = Airmax network. > 1 Airmax AP, 9 Airmax enabled CPE and 1 802.11G/N = 802.11G/N network. > > ryan > > On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 6:26 AM, Michael Baird wrote: > > >> Not sure if this is clear, but with airmax enabled Ubiquity is >> proprietary, if you disable airmax it will work with other n/g clients, >> I don't think b is supported at this time.

Re: [WISPA] New UBNT M line, 802.11n without TDMA?
Be aware though, you cannot mix and match at the same time.For example: 1 Airmax AP and 10 Airmax enabled CPE = Airmax network. 1 Airmax AP, 9 Airmax enabled CPE and 1 802.11G/N = 802.11G/N network. ryan On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 6:26 AM, Michael Baird wrote: > Not sure if this is clear, but with airmax enabled Ubiquity is > proprietary, if you disable airmax it will work with other n/g clients, > I don't think b is supported at this time.

Re: [WISPA] New UBNT M line, 802.11n without TDMA?
Not sure if this is clear, but with airmax enabled Ubiquity is proprietary, if you disable airmax it will work with other n/g clients, I don't think b is supported at this time. The firmware is rather young at this time as well, I'd wait a few releases before using these in production.
