Is that really a necessary question, in determining whether this falls under a DoC computer assembly or a dedicated wireless access point?
That's the question. It's a concept, in that having a declaration of conformity certified computer with a certified wireless PCI/miniPCI card and a non-standard OS is no longer a computer but a dedicated access point. Are we required to certify operating systems when using wireless? This also affects SBC-based systems such a Linksys wireless router. If hardware is certified exclusively, there's no regulation that I can find that says that changing operating system, drivers, etc, is cause to lose hardware certification. That's the clarification we need to know. I've been building computers since 1991, and I remember this back in 96 when it was a huge win for us small computer builders to be able to be free of FCC whole system certification. This clarification will allow Mikrotik to certify their boards under much less strict Part 15 Class B rules (i.e. a power-on style emissions test, rather than a software/transmitter test). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Rogato Sent: Monday, June 11, 2007 11:47 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] MT Babble Dawn, Just how many wisp customers did you have in your short career as a wisp?
