Software Installation

Documentation and procedures (Manu Gosain) ​slides

NDA (Ivan Seskar) Some still to be done.

Mobile Stations

Windows PC with WiMAX dongle (Ivan Seskar) Considering U211, good for windows and linux; good for windows XP and Vista, not Win7. Sampath to investigate.

Linux PC with Intel WiMAX card (Manu Gosain) ​slides Prefer new 6250 over older 5130. Need to add configs for all GENI site frequencies; see table below.

HTC EVO handset (Ivan Seskar, Tony Michel) ​slides Need a way to include GENI in Sprint profile, or need a source of unlocked phones; Giovanni will get one in Europe, soon.

Mobile node (Brian Lynn) ​Intel 6250 with USB adapter is working in Xen environment.
