Hey Cameron, The new firmware for the VL900 platform indeed provides better performance. The new filters are hardware based but controlled in software.
One of the new features is the ACCS and NFS controls (Automatic Clear Channel Selection and Noise Floor Selection). The way this will work is the Spectrum Analyzer Mode will determine the noise characteristics per channel and then can make an automatic selection of noise floor and clean channel. There will still be manual adjustment of optimization rules for skilled users available in the interface. If you didn't catch the webinar last week, one of the tests we ran was a head-to-head comparison against another 900 MHz radio. We tested six locations that were all NLOS. We outperformed the other radio in five of the six locations and could connect in every location whereas the other guy only registered a connection in three of those sites. (50%) You all will be the first to know when the firmware is GA. We are taking orders for hardware through partners and distribution channels.

I was asking to get a copy of the 5.5 firmware for VL. They said I had to wait for it to be available on the website. I thought they were joking at first but I guess not, they said it would probably be available Monday. If you have a copy please send it along. -Cameron ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- ---- WISPA Wants You!
