It's proxims own development of Karlnet. When Proxim and Karlnet had a falling out Proxim built their own version of Karlnet which they called WORP.
It's based on a/b/g like Karlnet and for example MikroTik's Nstrem. Just they do not follow the standard a/b/g protocol when the information is packaged but the underlaying radio is a regular a/b/g radio. One of the advantage is that it has polling capabilities. No normal 802.11a/b/g equipment can connect to it. But a good 802.11a/b/g sniffer can see the frames but can not properly decode them. / Eje -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of 3-dB Networks Sent: Thursday, April 16, 2009 3:43 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: [WISPA] Proxim WORP Protocol Anyone here know much about it?
