Hi,

Does the image support MIMO cards like
- SR71-12
- SR71-15
??

The latest OpenWRT Backfire 10.03 does.

NETSHe image is based on development trunk of OpenWRT and should have support of this cards.

But i do not have cards and could not realize right support in config and web-interface.

not to be exigent... but a .bin for routerstation in english is not possible?

In the manual is reported that NETSHe is bilingual (english and russian) with english as default language, when I open web page all is write in cirillic caracters and the option on log-in windows for setting english language (I think) do nothing...

Probably there an option on one of many menu for changing it, but I'm not "confortable" with cirillic caracters...

Thanks in advance for help

Having issue loading on RS .. I hold reset then upload bin and after a few pings drop and never come back. I hook uptp dhcp and ip grabs ip but can ping or login on 5556 80 ssh telnet. Any sugestions Thanks

[ubnt-115]

Try to load prev. version of NETSHe. RS and RS Pro ships with different versions of bootloaders (or this issue due to different partitions sizes). Some versions won't loads firmware around 8 Megabytes properly.

I was anble to load .4 on my rs. Is there anyway yo upgrade to 6? Interface looks great and I am looking forward to testing it.

Does it support 5/10/20? If not do you plan on supporting?

Thanks

I'll upload less sized image with some fixes ASAP.

Do you mean channel width?
I receive requests to implement variable channel width, shifting, extra power and other things (like TDMA, for example).
It requires a lot of time, because requires wifi stack reimplemetation and requires budget.
May be, it will be done in a future and will be opened. :)

But first, i should produce strong and mature base system :)

[Magician]

Thanks for updates to file size.

In regards to channel width. We need the abilty to use 10mhz channels. I see your software being used on all our microcells in subdivisions. There is a lack of products that have this in mind. I was using star-os on all my towers with ADI Metros and war2's as microcells. They have had nothng for hardware issues for over a year and I looked at using MT for microcells. However as my towers use 2.4 10mhz channels and MT and Star-os will talk at 5ghz but not 2.4ghz 10 and 5 meg channels. I need my microcell to talk 10mhz to tower. I am impressed with your software and hope I can find a way to use it at these sites.

Thanks

Where do I need to look for the updates?

Any thought on release with 5/10 meg channels?

[ubnt-115]

Any thought on release with 5/10 meg channels?

Just question. To understand requirements.

We have an ability to decrease jams of signals when we have 5/10 MHz channels. But when we use 5 or 10 megahertz channel we decrease number of subcarriers in OFDM and decrease link speed (bandwidth).

Right?

Correct,

We use this to extend our channels. with 10 meg to get an addationl few no overlapping channels. It does decrease the throughput and reduce customers. In using 2.4 for cpes we have to run narrow channels on towers to allow less impact from overlapping sites.

I think, we will be support 5/10/20 MHz channel width in next version of NETSHe
