Nuts! You beat me to it! Gino is absolutely right, first of all. There is no defined standard yet that I have heard of either.
The interoperability of these devices, in theory, should be at a connection and other basic function level. Charles Wu posted a great article on here some months ago detailing the way it it all seems like its going. Basically, if you have interoperable gear, it *will* work, you just wont have any of the features and benefits of the system you are connecting to. I always liken it to the Cisco CCX extensions for Wi-Fi. If you are on a Cisco network, CCX gives you so much more power over the client and the ability to manage them, but if you are running a Cisco 802.11 card on any other system, it acts like any other Wi-Fi client. I would really like someone to correct me if I am wrong from Tranzeo on this. I am in no way trying to say something that is inaccurate, it is just what my understanding of a conversation I had with them was. -drew On 12/14/08 12:54 PM, "Gino Villarini" <g...@aeronetpr.com> wrote: > Jeff AFAIK there is no Wimax Forum 3.65 profile ... > > > Gino A.
