Hello again.
There is a new solution from Lucent known as WaveACCESS. This solution
consists of three components :
1. OrINOCO Outdoor Central Office Router (includes WavePOINT-II
hardware and router software).
2. OrINOCO Outdoor Remote Office Router (includes WavePOINT-II
hardware and router software).
3. OrINOCO Internet Client (includes firmware for WaveLAN Card,
driver for OS and License Kit).
This solution implements new radio protocol - "TurboCell", and
adding features like CHAP/PAP, dummynet, polling mechanism on the air
instead of CTS/RTS .
Lucent developes OrINOCO Internet Client *only* for Windows 3x/9x .
And 99% of our routers and clients working on FreeBSD.
This is a problem.
Sorry for previous unclean question.
