[WISPA] Alvarion VL-900

Does anybody know if the firmware files for the 5.xGhz firmware will load on the 900 VL line? I'm having quite the time trying to upgrade to the 5.5.26 firmware on the VL 900 gear. If there is a different file and you have, please send it along offlist. Thanks, -Cameron -

My understanding was they were using standard Wifi Chipsets, but provided their own TDD mac. Similar to the concept of Alvarion VL, that uses Atheros chipset, with their own proprietary MAC. I'm pretty sure RadWin was the first to do this to accomplish immulated Full Duplex, with a single half-d

I could not volunteer to review apps, because I am involved as a grant applicant, and it would have compromised my eligibility. It is disappointing that my app did not make submission in round1, but it will be there in round2. I think it is awesome that you offered your time to contribute to the

It's worth noting that the rules are a little different for middle mile applicants than last mile applicants e.g., for the middle mile -- one has to pre-set their wholesale bandwidth rates and stay in accordance with the NOFA's non-discrimination rules per the application Keep in mind, if some

Well...operators in 2.5 GHz can put out up to 2 kW (E.g., 2000 Watts) EIRP at the tower site, have a noise floor of -100 dBm which allows them to take full advantage of more advanced technology, and in some cases, have access to almost 200 MHz of spectrum Compare that to 900 MHz, where you're l

>They either "lie" or they legitimately "dont know what they are doing". Or maybe you don't know what is possible with licensed spectrum =) For example, in the 2.5 GHz band, there are over 30 6 MHz channels available (e.g., almost 200 MHz of spectrum) -- we have one customer that owns/leases al
