That is ... annoying--it's the same signal--I am wondering if one software has better pre-provisioning data than the other and thus can find basestations better; I'd like to see the capture though. Unfortunately, I can't glimmer more information out of the logs on why it fails. So I kind of have to work it out based on discarding things. > Unfortunately WiMAX coverage in my location (Tokyo) is pretty spotty. > Maybe other places are better, but in my case, I'd like the software > to be the -least- conservative possible =) Maybe you could make it > a tunable? The user space software is in maintenance mode, I don't have the resources (time) to add new features to it, although I'll gladly take patches. In any case, it seems that the problem is another one in this case.
