What I am seeing about this logs is that most found channels are reporting a really bad link quality: $ grep @Ch wimaxd.log 16:26:05: 3069401968 @Notice @NDNS_Agent @Ch 1.

I'd really like this software to be more conservative. Have you tried this in another location? _______________________________________________ wimax mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxwimax.org/listinfo/wimax
